Board reviews $360K‑plus playground proposal and agrees to consider phasing

Sep 16, 2026

Vendor presented playground renderings and multiple cost options; board discussed phasing, ADA sidewalks, benches, a possible zip line and a plan to reduce scope to a phase 1 that fits current budget uncertainty.

The full story

A vendor presented playground designs and line‑item estimates the board could afford if it phases work or contributes site labor. The full installed price with vendor site work was presented near $409,000; after a $25,000 vendor credit (BraunAbility) and doing some site work in‑house, the presenter estimated a realistic target in the low $360,000s.
