Area residents are encouraged to attend a community meeting to hear information about and provide feedback on a statewide watershed improvement project and plans to implement the project in South Arkansas.
Having secured funding for the latest round of park improvements, the El Dorado Parks and Playgrounds Commission can take a well-deserved, albeit brief, respite before proceeding with the next phases of a master plan to make city parks more inviting to the community.
There are six watersheds in and around El Dorado that contribute to flooding and drainage issues in the area and a public meeting has been scheduled next month to provide information about a grant the city has received to help address the matter.
State historic preservation officials have advised the El Dorado Historic District Commission to continue efforts to form a committee to advance a historic preservation project to develop an African American context for El Dorado the next project to be implemented as part of the city s historic preservation program.
The El Dorado City Council will consider funding requests for several major projects when they convene for a regular meeting at 5 p.m. today in the Council Chamber of City Hall.
