LULA - The Lula City Council is considering leasing Rafe Banks Park from Hall County.

The city council is to consider the matter tonight.

The council will discuss it at 6:30 at city hall prior to the regular council work session.

According to the Hall County Web site, the park consists of:

15 Picnic sites
2 Baseball/softball field
Outdoor/hard surface basketball court
1 Tennis court
Playground
1 Picnic shelter
Nature trail
Concession/restroom building

The park is one of four the county closed July 1 as part of a reorganization of Hall County Parks & Leisure Services in the wake of an $11.5 million budget shortfall. The others are in Tadmore and Murrayville and South Hall (Platt Park.)
