Queen Creek community park to be named iconic resident
Opting to choose unique over generic, the Queen Creek Town Council voted 6-0 to name the town’s new community park Mansel Carter Oasis Park.
The decision was made during the council’s regular meeting Oct. 4 in the Queen Creek Community Chambers, 20727 E. Civic Parkway. Voting in favor of the name were Mayor Gail Barney, Vice Mayor Jeff Brown and council members Robin Benning, Dawn Oliphant, Emilena Turley and Julia Wheatley (by phone).
Councilman Jake Hoffman was absent due to a family obligation, Mayor Barney said at the meeting.
