Hendersonville eyes state grant for Berkeley Mills Park
Hendersonville residents largely back a state PARTE grant for Berkeley Mills Park though concerns about taxes and future operating costs were raised by business lobbyist Larry Rogers. The city seeks about half of the up to 500000 grant while a local match of 250000 over three years would be required. Public support highlighted park benefits, quality of life, and local business attraction as officials noted phased development after last year's failed park bond issue.
