LeJeune said he’s seen the concerns posted on social media about the work going on at Bayfront Park and May Day Park at the same time. He said the two projects should have never overlapped.
A significant cost increase and a shortage of contractors after Hurricane Sally caused a long delay. Then, the city had to wait for materials to come in.
“Part of the process with the Bayfront not being started earlier and how this kind of lined up where they were both closed at the same time was saying, okay, we’re not going to start this project until we have got all the materials needed for the project, so that put us off by six months,” LeJeune explained.
Meanwhile, The ARPA-funded repairs at May Day Park are ongoing. The scenic park was closed more than two months ago. The city is spending over a million dollars in COVID relief money on repairs there.
