The naming of a newly constructed pavilion in Pauquette Park drew criticism from members of Portage Common Council during discussion while holding their meeting via teleconference Thursday.
Council member Dennis Nachreiner echoed concerns he raised with fellow member Mike Charles during the process of naming the pavilion.
âI think that George Beasley did a lot of good things for our community and I wish every community has a lot of George Beasleys in them,â Nachreiner said. âHowever, I believe itâs too early to be naming anything after George Beasley. Thereâs a lot of people in our community that have did a lot of good things over the years and they get no recognition.â
