In a meeting of the East Brewton City Council, Carroll reported on the improvements at the park and asked for some assistance from the city.
East Brewton Mayor Terry Clark said he would work toward seeing what help the city can provide.
Carroll said work is progressing on a gate to be erected at the entrance to the park on Snowden Street.
Clark said an offer to assist in the making of gates for the entrance has been made to the city.
