Lanark plans playground surface upgrades and expanded park surveillance ahead of Old Settlers Day
Summary
Council discussed upgrading playground surfacing to mulch and rubber mats before Old Settlers Day and expanding park surveillance; staff to contact preferred vendor and consider a neutral public notice about vandalism.
Council members discussed plans to upgrade playground surfaces with mulch and rubber mats prior to the Old Settlers event, contingent on vendor responses, and to expand park surveillance by updating equipment. Officials emphasized collecting photographic evidence of vandalism and encouraging community cooperation for enforcement; a neutral public notice about vandalism remains under consideration.
Maintenance Manager Jason Alvarado said staff "will open park bathrooms once cleaning is completed and signage is posted," and reported an EPA visit with only minor recommendations including cybersecurity improvements and a water main upgrade. The council asked staff to contact preferred vendors to begin procurement for both surfacing and surveillance work.
