Town Hall Amphitheater
At a glance
- What: a proposed permanent outdoor stage (amphitheater) on the lawn in front of town hall for events.
- Where it stands: at the October 13, 2026 Mayor's Town Hall officials said the town is working with an architect on plans. No vote, budget or schedule was stated.
- What's next: plans would be built in phases; the stage and restrooms first, with the grassy area graded to slope toward the stage.
Details from the town hall
- Rationale: events on the front lawn are visible to passersby and easier to promote, and a permanent stage avoids renting one (a rental stage was said to cost about $3,500, roughly the price of a good band). Tobaccoville's permanent stage was cited as a model.
- History: plans for the area were drawn up 15 to 18 years ago and never funded.
- Design view: an early plan included sidewalks and a gazebo, but officials thought sidewalks would see little use and preferred open grass for car shows and similar events.
