Trion Council Plans For
Ballfields And Traffic
By RICH JEFFERSON
Staff Writer
Trion's track field, located
on Old U. S. Highway 27 bet
ween Allgood and gimmons
streets, may soon get a com
plete overhaul. :
According to a plan con
sidered last Thursday night by
the Trion Town Council, the
property would change from a
rather plain piece of real estate
into a city park, or a “front
yard for the community."
The plan includes three
baseball fields, a pond that
could be stocked for fishing,
pavillions, restrooms, open
areas and soft surfaced walk
ing tracks that could replace
the current track.
A representative from the
Atlanta architectural plannin
firm of Mayes, Sudderth, ang
Etheridge Inc., told the Coun
cil there was no charge for the
drawings of the proposed afivlark,
but the Council was not allow
ed to keep copies of the draw
ings. There were no written
estimates of the costs for
building the entire park, or for
putting in the baseball fields.
Council members said the
large trees along Highway 27
would not be removed, even
though bleachers would be in
stalled along the bank that
runs Yarallel to the road. The
outfield of all three fields would
be toward the railroad tracks.
The first base line on two of the

fields would run parallel to the
highway, and tl!A)e third base
line on the other would run
parallel to the road, the
spokesman said.
Proposed field sizes are one
of 180 to 200 feet to the fence
for Little League glay, another
260-280 feet for Pony League
and ladies’ softball, and one
fence 300 feet away from
homeplate for adult games.
The spokesman proposed
two manhole covers for access
to service the drainage system.
The sewage from the proposed
restrooms would be gravity
drainage, as a one-half percent
%rade, or six inches over 100
eet, is all that is necessary for
proper drainage, the
spokesman said.
Council members were en
thusiastic about the plan, and
said there would ge more
discussion about it soon.
The Council also again
discussed traffic problems at
Allgood Street and Park
Avenue, and Highway 27 and
Allgood Street. The board ap
proved a measure to install
traffic markers at the intersec
tion of Highway 27 and
Allgood Street, similar to the
raised reflectors that can be
seen at the intersection of
Highways 337 and 48 in Menlo.
The problem at both in
tersections, Council members
said, is keeping drivers in the
right traffic pattern at the two
intersections. A new traffic
light at the intersection of
A%lgood and Park Avenue was
approved.
A joint billboard rental with
the city of Summerville to
advertise the benefits of
natural gas heat was also ap
proved. The two signs will be
posted on Highway 27 between
Summerville and Trion.
The total cost for the signs
is $1,040. The Southern
Natural Gas Company will pay
$540 for the signs and Trion
and Summerville both will chip
in $260.
In other business, the board
opened two bids for vehicles, a
tractor and a new police car.
Only one bid was received for
both of them, a $11,695 bid for
the car from Beaudry
Chevrolet in Atlanta and a
$10,447.50 bid for the tractor
from Rhinehart Ford in Rome.
Both bids were accepted.
In other business, the Coun
cil confirmed Reid, Martin,
Slickman and Sheets as its
auditors for the fiscal year
1988-89. The firm has been the
town's auditor for several
years.
The Council also approved
$1,300 for a heater in the
workshop of the town's waste
water treatment plant. Mayor
Hoyt Williams told the Coun
cil that the mixers for the
wastewater treatment plant
and the electric control panels
would be delivered soon.
No delivery date for the
town's new fire truck has been
set, the mayor reported. There
were no overdue water bills and
stolen automobiles reported
during the month prior to the
meeting, and building permits
totaling $195,269 were approv
ed, it was reported.
