Playground installation near completion; splash pad timeline uncertain

Aug 7, 2026

Public works staff told the board that playground equipment installation should finish next week and turf installation will take about three weeks; the splash pad contractor asked staff to wait to finish curbing around the splash pad and staff said weather and sequencing make the pad's opening date uncertain.

The full story

Public-works staff reported that the playground contractor should finish installing equipment the following week and that turf installation will follow and take about three weeks. Staff said most curb work is done but curbing around the splash-pad area must wait until the splash-pad contractor finishes; the splash pad itself may not be ready before winter, and the board discussed the possibility of opening the playground portion while delaying the splash pad.
