Patrons of Newtown Park will soon have access to restroom facilities that are much closer to the Amphitheater.

That’s because the Johns Creek City Council at its meeting on Monday awarded a bid to Mid Atlantic Renovation to install an Americans With Disabilities Act-compliant restroom, concessions facility and a standalone ticket booth.

Mid Atlantaic will perform the work for $159,650, and the project will be funded from the 2014 capital budget.

The completion of this project will allow amphitheater patrons to use restroom facilities that are closer to their location, the city said.

The facility would be to the right and the rear of the actual amphitheater, Public Works Director Tom Black told the City Council at its work session before the meeting.

Mayor Mike Bodker added the new facility will allow residents to access restrooms without having to leave the amphitheater and provides the opportunity for the city to serve concessions.

Additionally, if city leaders decide, Bodker stated the addition will give the city a place to collect tickets for events.
