North Augusta to apply for LWCF funds for Riverview shade structure and Summerfield playground
Summary
Staff told council the city will apply for a Land and Water Conservation Fund grant through SCPRT to build a shade structure at Riverview Park and replace the Summerfield Park playground, with CPST 5 funds planned as the local match.
At the Nov. 24 study session the administration told council it will submit the city’s annual application to the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) administered through the South Carolina Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism (SCPRT). Public Works/parks staff (Rick) selected two projects for the application: a shade structure at Riverview Park and replacement of the playground at Summerfield Park. McCauley said CPST 5 funds would be used as the local match and that the timing of the grant and CPST 5 allocations align.
Councilors expressed support for both projects and had no substantive objections during the briefing. The resolution to authorize the application will appear on the next council meeting agenda.
