Council asks cost comparison for new playground set after vandalism to Hunt Park slide
Summary
After staff reported likely vandalism to a refurbished slide at Hunt Park, council asked for a cost estimate for purchasing a comparable new playground set and requested staff investigate grant options.
Town Manager Suzanne Harvey explained that damage to a Hunt Park slide was likely caused by vandalism and that the slide had previously been refurbished rather than replaced. "This is not one of the slides that was replaced, it was refurbished," Harvey said, and council asked staff to obtain costs for a new comparable set.
Council members also asked staff to research grant opportunities that could help fund a replacement rather than repair. No purchase was authorized at the March 26 meeting; staff was directed to return with cost comparisons and funding options.
