Summary
Lakeway City Council unanimously accepted a $50,000 donation from the Rotary Club of Lake Travis toward the Lakeway Activity Center playscape and approved a plaque acknowledging Rotary and Lakeway taxpayers.
The Lakeway City Council unanimously approved a resolution accepting a $50,000 donation from the Rotary Club of Lake Travis to support the Lakeway Activity Center playscape.
Parks and Recreation Director Bennett told council the Rotary Club approached the department about four years ago; the club voted unanimously to provide $50,000 for the inclusive playscape, which aims to connect “children of all ages and abilities through play.” Bennett presented construction photos and a sample plaque acknowledging Lakeway taxpayers and Rotary’s contribution; council asked staff to add a date to the plaque.
Councilmember Sherman had asked to move the agenda item; after public comment (none) councilmember Sherman moved approval with the plaque date added and the motion passed unanimously.
Ending — Parks staff said the playscape construction is nearly complete, with engineered wood fiber and fencing scheduled and a ribbon cutting expected the week of Sept. 8.
