ENDERLY PARK NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
Public meeting results
The first public meeting for the Enderly Park Neighborhood Improvement Project was
held on June 28, 2007 at the Bette Rae Thomas Center. A formal presentation was
given by City staff outlining the goals and objectives of the Neighborhood Improvement
Program (NIP). City staff also identified the project boundaries and existing conditions.
The goal of the project is to balance available funds with existing needs to determine the
most appropriate improvement plan for Enderly Park.
After the presentation attendees divided into smaller groups to voice concerns, priorities
and recommendations. Residents’ knowledge of the neighborhood brought many critical
issues to light, including the need for basic infrastructure such as storm drainage and
enhancing the neighborhood’s overlooked amenities (Enderly Park and Duke Energy’s
right-of-way).
