State and local officials helped kick off a major improvement project for Makle Park at a groundbreaking ceremony Tuesday afternoon.
The project is Phase 1 of improvements that include resurfacing the park’s basketball courts, resurfacing the parking lot with new pavement and striping, constructing a picnic pavilion, and installing a prefabricated restroom. Also included are new benches, trash receptacles, picnic tables, and bike racks.
The improvements are primarily funded through a state Community Conservation Partnerships Program grant, with a matching contribution from the borough.
