Upper Moreland selects contractor for Woodlawn Park; playground work and senior programs highlighted
Summary
The Parks & Recreation report said A.H. Cornell was recommended as Woodlawn Park’s contractor with construction expected to begin about July 6; the report also noted Upper Moreland’s role in the Montgomery County Senior Games, imminent reopening of a replaced playground at Crooked Billet Park, and a senior scam-prevention program.
At the June 15 Upper Moreland Parks & Recreation committee meeting, the department reported progress on several projects, including selection of a contractor for the Woodlawn Park project and near-term work at a township playground.
The presenter said the board approved the recommendation of A.H. Cornell as the Woodlawn Park contractor and that a pre-construction meeting has already taken place. "The new start date is going to be about July 6," the presenter said.
The department reported that the Montgomery County Senior Games celebrated its 40th anniversary with more than 400 participants and that Upper Moreland hosted events and received regional media coverage. Staff also described work at Crooked Billet Park: the old playground equipment has been removed, a certified installer is reconstructing the safety surface, and the playground is expected to open by the end of next week.
The presenter noted a Golden Age Club scam-prevention program held in partnership with the police department and summarized routine park maintenance and summer camp planning.
A commissioner moved to accept the Parks & Recreation report; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The transcript does not record individual votes.
