Richard Moore also supports a park on Dix Hill.
A representative for the state treasurer, who is running for the Democratic nomination for governor, said that he would want to review existing proposals and hear from local leaders if the issue came up before the Council of State.
"Treasurer Moore believes turning the Dix property into a public recreation area and tying it into Pullen Park would make a lot of sense," Moore spokeswoman Sara Lang wrote Dome in an e-mail.
Meantime, a representative for Gov. Mike Easley said that he has not made any decisions about what to do with the land, but it won't be before the next legislative session anyway.
Dan Gerlach, Easley's budget advisor, noted that the legislature didn't approve consolidating Department of Health and Human Services workers on the Dorothea Dix hospital campus either.
"The governor and the Council of State have no plans to put a Re/Max sign on the property," he said.
