KidsTowne Playground Renovation
Project #649
View on Interactive Map →This project replaces the KidsTowne Playground equipment, improves the surfacing, and adds a secondary rental shelter. This treated lumber, community-built playground is 24 years old, so the structure’s life is limited despite routine maintenance and component replacements. Renovations with long-lasting composite or metal components will increase this facility's longevity for another 20+ years and allow for a more accessible play facility to be constructed. Poured-in-place surfacing increases its accessibility and longevity and will reduce the time and replacement costs for mulch safety surfacing. The highly used shelter is often not available for public use due to rentals, so adding a larger secondary rental shelter would provide additional protected space for resident use.
