Five years ago voters approved allocating money to renovate John Chavis Memorial Park park in Raleigh. However, problems with picking a company to do the renovations have left the park empty for years.

Raleigh Parks and Recreation said a groundbreaking celebration for John Chavis Memorial Park is scheduled for Sept. 6.
