Enhancing the enjoyment of visitors to city-owned trails and parks is the focus of a grant sought by McMinnville Parks and Recreation Department. According to director Scott McCord, the funds would come from the Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development and would be used to enhance Hobbs Park and Salley’s Alley. “The grant would be used for informational kiosks, signage, benches and tables, fitness equipment, habitat houses and vegetation to attract local wildlife,” McCord said.
