Statement from the Office of the Mayor Regarding Arbor Hill Park

ALBANY, NY – “At a community meeting tonight, a resident claimed that the City is closing Arbor Hill Park. We want to state unequivocally that this is untrue. The park is open and the City is fully funding a youth basketball program and other youth camps being held at the park. The City also has been working to accommodate the adult men’s Arbor Hill softball league even though the league only provided its full schedule to the City today. After investing more than $700,000 in improvements to the park, the Sheehan administration remains committed to supporting the Arbor Hill sports complex.”
