Dublin buys 94 acres adjacent to Darree Fields Park for $8.4 million
Dublin City Council on June 28 approved an ordinance finalizing the purchase.
The land is for the future use of the city for economic development, transportation or recreational uses, said Lindsay Weisenauer, public-affairs officer for Dublin.
According to a memo to council members from City Manager Dana McDaniel, the city had engaged in discussions with Denise M. Jewett to purchase the property.
The city purchased three parcels, two of which are almost 33 acres each and immediately south of Darree Fields Park and another nearly 28-acre parcel east of Darree Fields Park and north of the other two parcels.
