TAUTPHAUS PARK MULTI-PURPOSE & ICE RINK LOBBY REBUILD

 

Construction of a new lobby area for the building will begin the end of March and continue until October.   The construction area will be fenced and posted for the public’s safety.

The parking lot between the zoo and the ice rink will   remain open to public.  There will be a loss of around 10 parking spaces during the construction.   Parks and Recreation would encourage the public to make use the parking lots by the ball fields and skate park in addition to the rink parking lot.
