ONEONTA – Miller Park will be dedicated to the memory of former Mayor Dick Miller at 11 a.m. Tuesday.  The public is welcome.

Located at the intersection of Lettis Highway and Main Street, behind the Benson Hughson Agency, the park was proposed and partly funded by the former mayor’s friend, Al Cleinman, principal in Cleinman Performance Partners, the city consulting firm.

In announcing the dedication, Mayor Gary Herzig thanked Cleinman “for this meaningful tribute …  Dick valued the natural beauty of our city and advocated for improving the appearance of the city’s gateways.  He would appreciate this tribute”.

Landscaping was completed by the New Asbury Gardens and the City of Oneonta Department of Public Works.
