HENRICO COUNTY, Va. — Henrico County officials announced Monday that a new public park will be built on Patterson Avenue, near Maybeury Elementary School.
The announcement came during a community event held at Maybeury Elementary School, where residents enjoyed bounce houses, a dunk tank and local food trucks.
More than 400 residents recently signed a petition asking the county to purchase the over 6-acre land for a neighborhood park.
The request was approved by the Board of Supervisors late last month.
The free event was organized by the county's Division of Recreation and Parks.
