Major improvements are coming to the town of Church Point.
Right now, crews are working on a new RV park and additions to the MLK Park, including pavilions and a new basketball court.
Several new businesses are also in the works, and are expected to open later this year.
Church Point Mayor Ryan "Spanky" Meche believes the improvements will drive more people to the town.
"When you improve the park system, you improve the quality of life, and you entice people to either come here or move here. When a person wants to move to a new town, they want to look around and see if it's worth coming to."
