Memphis City Council member Reid Hedgepeth says the body's Tuesday, March 1, vote to give the Memphis Zoo control of part of the Overton Park Greensward was an attempt to "rectify a mistake." "This mistake was made by us when we entered into the management contract with the in 2011, and through an oversight on our part did not realize that it conflicted with rights already granted to the Memphis Zoo by the city of Memphis in prior agreements," Hedgepeth wrote in an email sent Thursday, March 3. "This is not a new encroachment on the Zoo's part, however the creation of the OPC and the city's contract with them was the spark that ignited this entire debate in recent years," Hedgepeth added.
