Montgomery Parks will host a virtual community meeting on Thursday, February 2, 2023, from 7 – 8:30 p.m. The meeting will be presented in English and Spanish and provide an overview of design recommendations for Long Branch Local Park and Long Branch-Arliss Neighborhood Park. The recommendations are a result of community feedback received during the Long Branch Parks Initiative(opens in a new tab) that Montgomery Parks launched in April 2022. “Since launching this initiative, we have had meaningful conversations with residents of Long Branch about improvements to their parks,” said Christie Ciabotti, project landscape architect at Montgomery Parks. “As a next step, we are excited to share the concepts for these two parks with the community for their feedback so that we can continue progressing with the plans.”
