The April 27th Brookhaven City Council meeting was an eventful one for Murphey Candler park. MCNA Board Member David Cohen made a statement on behalf of the MCNA regarding the new playground’s lack of equipment for 2-5 year old children and the City Council voted to approve conceptual plans for the Lake House and Murphey Candler Park Pool.

Results of the Community Green Survey are in! The survey was open to residents from January 1st through January 22nd. We received a total of 97 responses, with respondents overwhelmingly in favor of the original 2016 design for an “open space field” versus 2019/2020 plans that include a stage, concrete pavement, and retaining/seating walls.

Results of the MCNA Loop Road survey are in! We received a total of 73 responses, with neighborhood respondents overwhelmingly opposed to the City’s plans for the loop road.

A new Murphey Candler Neighborhood Association board was elected in April 2020. We have been hard at work creating a new website (you’re looking at it!), contacting local officials & establishing our positions on current issues affecting the neighborhood.

We are holding our next membership meeting via Zoom call on Wednesday, June 24th from 7-8pm. The meeting will be open to members only. See the event page for more detail.
