ST. MARYS - City officials want to hear from residents on ways to better utilize K. C. Geiger Park.
"After June, the park is pretty dull until SummerFest. I think we can make better use of it. I want St. Marys to be a destination and the park is a big part of that. What do people want? I'm looking for ideas, even though it may be years before we can do anything. We need some long-range plans," safety service director Tom Hitchcock told council's parks and recreation committee Tuesday evening. [More]
