City leaders in Green Bay hope to have a beach back at Bay Beach in the next two years.
Green Bay Parks Director Dan Ditscheit says the city is looking to raise another three-and-a-half-million-dollars to open Bay Beach to swimmers. People have been banned from the water at Bay Beach since 1945 because of pollution. The city says the water and beach are much cleaner now, and hopes to turn Bay Beach into a real beach by the summer of 2023.
