The Live Oak Economic Development Corporation has taken significant steps to enhance local parks and community spaces, following a recent meeting where two key resolutions were approved. The board unanimously voted to recommend to the city council the allocation of funds for park improvements, signaling a commitment to enhancing the quality of life for residents.

The first resolution authorizes expenditures not to exceed $137,000 for improvements to fitness structures within parks during the 2025-2026 fiscal year. This initiative aims to promote health and wellness among community members by upgrading existing facilities.

In a second resolution, the board approved a recommendation for expenditures up to $405,900 for erosion control and beautification designs in local parks. This funding is intended to address environmental concerns while enhancing the aesthetic appeal of community spaces.

Both resolutions received strong support from board members, with each director voting in favor. These initiatives reflect a proactive approach to community development, focusing on both recreational and environmental improvements. As these projects move forward, residents can look forward to enhanced park facilities and a more inviting outdoor environment.
