<\/a> <\/p>\nNewton Park was destroyed by Hurricane Ian in September 2022 and is now a parking lot with mobile restrooms. $497,750 of federal funds will be used to rebuild the park.<\/p>\n

The project is expected to take 18 months from start to finish.<\/p>\n
JR Evans won the bid for the project.<\/p>\n
