DUBOIS CO, IN (WFIE)-

Police say 20 year-olds Tyler Breckling and Richard Smith, and 22 year-old Corey Stedman were arrested.

The Town of Ferdinand’s Park Board has officially opened its new handicap-ADA compliant/accessible restroom and shelter house facility in the Town’s 18th Street Park.  To save as much money as possible on the project, the majority of the project’s construction was performed “in-house” by the Town employees.  Project oversight was handled by Ferdinand’s Property Manager and Street Superintendent Tom Lueken.

“This is a great addition to our park inventory and a facility that will be of tremendous value to the community,” said Scott Tretter, Ferdinand Park Board president.  “Perhaps we carry our most pride in knowing that it is 100% ADA compliant—from the parking area, to the shelters, to the restrooms.  Tom and his employees are to be commended for their work and oversight in managing this project.”
