New Fair Park Fence Damaged By Fire

The new Fair Park fence just can’t catch a break.  The fence was two panels damaged last year after a motorist drove through it.  This week, the fence was damaged by fire.  City Manager Catherine Cook told the City Board Tuesday the fire department extinguished a fire Tuesday that apparently damaged about 11 panels.  It is believed a discarded cigarette ignited leaves around the fence.  Cook said staff is investigating what to do to repair the damage.
