The Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment has approved Phase I plans for the restoration of Central City Park in Westland. Bids are about to be released. The park has been closed since November 2006 after lead contamination levels in the soils were deemed too great. The site’s transformation will include a geotextile cover over contaminated zones. Thirty-three of the park’s 64 acres will be involved in the creation of new fields, paths, and a pavilion.
