The overpowering smell has resulted in the closure of the local park for an astonishing 27 years.
Residents and visitors have long struggled with the unpleasant odor, making the park an unappealing destination. Despite various attempts to address the issue, the smell persisted, forcing authorities to shut down the area to the public.
Efforts are now underway to identify the root cause and find a lasting solution so the park can be reopened for community enjoyment. The hope is that, after nearly three decades, the park will once again become a welcoming space for everyone.
