Lenoir City council approved submission of a FY26 State Community Development Block Grant application to continue streambank stabilization work at Wampler Park.
Staff said Phase 3 would address sections of the park where vegetation is insufficient to stabilize the bank and where previous washouts and loss of plant material have caused erosion. The grant application would seek up to $1,000,000 and staff said the proposal would be eligible for an 87% grant match under program rules if awarded.
Council received a brief description of the phase s scope from staff, asked questions and then voted to authorize submission of the application. Staff will proceed with application materials and follow program requirements.
