Peavine Creek in Burbanck ParkThe newest park in Druid Hills is taking shape and improvements are on the horizon.

A local builder was selected by the Burbanck Park Development Committee to conduct Phase I Development of the park, pending approval from the DeKalb Historic Preservation Committee. The approved plan includes a budget of $28,000 with the following improvements being made:
• The existing foundation and stairs will be removed and the site will be restored to its natural vegetative state;
• An entry column, with permanent signage, will be placed near the driveway on Clifton Road;
• Benches will be placed throughout the park for seating;
• A path will lead from the end of the driveway and loop down to the creek;
• A permanent donor plaque will be attached to the existing granite wall; and
• The driveway will be trimmed to create an inviting foot path.

A community clean-up and workday and a Phase I Development dedication ceremony are planned for later this summer. Visit www.cliftoncommunitypartnership.org for details.
