Long-term plans are beginning to take shape for the City of Morehead’s Entertainment Destination Center.
The EDC officially launched in time for Freedom Fest last year, but the final product of the area is still a ways off. The Mayor and City Council have discussed big picture ideas for the district on several occasions, and have been consulting with the firm Element Design about how to bring those ideas to fruition. Some conceptual designs were displayed during the regular January City Council Meeting Monday night. They include plans for a permanent fixture stage, a playground & picnic area, and a sunken fire pit.
City Planner Rodney Fouch says the concept also includes a market structure.
Council has been ambitious in their vision for the EDC, and Mayor Laura White-Brown says they are trying to include as many ideas as possible.
