Court Decrees Park Becomes Public Facility If City Just Mows Grass
The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that a park becomes public when the city even minimally intervenes by mowing the grass or turning over to private trustees. The decision centered on a Macon Georgia park once for white use now open to Negroes, stressing mass recreation in the public domain. Justices Douglas and Harlan wrote concurring and dissenting opinions, while the court also tackled voting rights law challenges and other civil rights cases.
