Berry Industrial Authority discusses proposed multipurpose pavilion

The Berry Industrial Authority recently hosted a public input session to gather community ideas for a proposed multipurpose building or pavilion that could serve as a public gathering space near downtown. Authority President Wes Madison said the goal of the meeting was to hear directly from residents about how the space could best serve the community as plans move forward. Tom Wisemiller, President and CEO of the Northwest Alabama Economic Development Alliance, led the discussion. The project, which is still in the early planning stages, would likely be developed in phases depending on available funding.
