Millhouse Road Park — The recommended budget for this project reflects a possible Town of Chapel Hill/County partnership concept for this project. Funds of $100,000 for design, engineering, and preconstruction costs are recommended in Year 3 (FY 2016-17), with Park construction funds of $6,400,000, including a soccer field complex, walking trails, and other amenities, in Year 4 (FY 2017-18).
