After a long delay, Friends of Riverview Park (FOR Park) held their second community meeting on May 22 to give the public the chance to offer feedback on the re-envisioning of the Grand Avenue entrance and Kilbuck Valley of Riverview Park.

The delay between this meeting and the last — which was held on March 3, 2020, just before COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns hit America — was acknowledged at the opening by FOR Park Chair Mark Masterson.

“Our last meeting was the last public meeting I was at before the pandemic shutdown order came in March of 2020,” Masterson said, “and it’s taken us a while to get back to it because people changed companies and jobs that were helping us with it and we needed to raise extra funding to help pay for this.”
