Huachuca City to weigh repair versus replacement after vandalism damages Hunt Park slide
Summary
Council asked staff to compare repair and new-purchase costs for a vandalized slide at Hunt Park and to investigate potential grant funding for a comparable replacement set.
Town Manager Suzanne Harvey told Council that the Hunt Park slide appears to have been damaged by vandalism; the unit in question had been previously refurbished rather than replaced. Councilmembers asked staff to obtain costs for a new comparable set rather than replacing the single slide and to research grant options to fund a replacement.
"This is not one of the slides that was replaced, it was refurbished," Harvey said, and Council asked staff to return with cost estimates for both repair and a new playground set. No formal funding decision was made at the meeting.
Staff will report back with price comparisons and any grant possibilities before the Council votes on purchase or repair.
