Mermaid Park: vandalism, concert and $250,000 DCNR grant noted; $2M playground plan in early stages
Summary
The board reported vandalism to the Three Seasons building at Mermaid Park and widened the playground driveway for safety. The Amish Outlaws concert is set for June 25. The township received a $250,000 DCNR grant check and is in early planning for a possible $2 million playground grant slated for work in 2027.
Mermaid Park staff reported a safety-related widening of the playground driveway; playground grants are not yet closed out, limiting some work. The Three Seasons building suffered heavy vandalism and staff said they are looking to remove it sooner rather than later, though removal before the upcoming concert may not be likely.
The board confirmed the Amish Outlaws concert on Thursday, June 25. Members said the township received a $250,000 grant check from the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR). The board also discussed early planning for a $2 million playground grant, with a hope to plan in 2026 and complete work in 2027; that larger grant project is in preliminary stages.
