Saline continues work on creating a town square green space for its downtown.

Excerpt:

Shovels are sprouting up in Saline's Henne Field this spring as construction workers once again begin to revamp the 8-acre park near downtown.

"We plan to have our construction for this year done by June," says David Rhoads, treasurer of the Friends of Henne Field.

Work to turn the park into Saline's version of a town square began last fall, but ended prematurely because the weather didn't cooperate. The Friends of Henne Field hope to finish off the first phase this year for about $600,000. The group then plans to raise the same amount of money over the rest of the year so it can finish the $1.3 million project next summer.
