The Conway City Council held a special meeting on March 15, 2025, focusing on community development and public safety initiatives. Key discussions included the ongoing use of local sports fields and updates from the Conway Fire Department.

During the meeting, council members addressed the continued use of a local field for baseball and softball practices, particularly during the spring and fall seasons. There are plans to enhance the area with the addition of a community center, which may lead to further improvements in the future.

Another significant topic was the potential use of airport property for equestrian activities, such as horse and bull riding. While some council members expressed enthusiasm for this idea, concerns were raised about the space's adequacy for parking and animal care facilities.

Conway Fire Chief highlighted the department's accomplishments, including the successful implementation of a medic program that trains firefighters in a condensed 12-month course. This program allows firefighters to provide medical assistance in collaboration with local law enforcement agencies, enhancing public safety.

Additionally, the fire department maintained its Class 1 status following a reevaluation by the Insurance Services Office (ISO), which is crucial for keeping insurance rates low for residents and businesses in the area.

The meeting concluded with a commitment to continue addressing community needs and enhancing public safety measures, reflecting the council's dedication to improving the quality of life in Conway.
