NorCo: Groundbreaking Scheduled Today for $2.1 Million Parks and Recreation Building at Louise Moore Park

From Northampton County:

The County of Northampton invites media to attend the groundbreaking for the County’s new Parks and Recreation maintenance building at Louise Moore Park on July 10th, at 10:00 a.m.

The 6,300 SF pre-engineered steel garage will feature five garage bays for storage and maintenance of County vehicles and equipment, as well as a workshop and break room area. Constructing this garage at Louise Moore Park, the County’s largest and most centrally located park, will improve the efficiency of the Parks and Recreation Division.

County Council approved a contract in the amount of $2,199,108 with BlueScope Construction at their November 16, 2023 meeting. The building is scheduled to be completed by January 2025.

Media is encouraged to attend. The event will be held outside.

  4. Glad they can spend 2 million on a building. Maybe take care of the county employees first.

  5. I read on this blog about the ground breaking ceremony at 9:45 and made it over to the Park by 10:00. Very nice ceremony and the County is lucky to have a County Executive who promotes "preservation of open space" and outdoor recreation.
    When it comes to outdoor recreation and parks, Northampton County is truly blessed.

  6. The park shitter is a metaphor for the current administration. The initial shit backup is a metaphor for county councilboys and councilgirls.

  7. Anon 802am, according to the latest JOLTS survey, there are over 8.1 million job openings in the US. Here's a thought for all county employees who are not happy:

    LEAVE! GO GET ANOTHER JOB! IT'S NOT INDENTURED SERVITUDE! PACK UP AND GET OUT! VOTE WITH YOUR FEET!

    If you stay, you send a message that you just bitch but otherwise are happy, or at least content. Good luck getting anything accomplished with that.

    That hostile commission voted for it. Do you want some smelly cheese with your whine?

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
