Linda Tot Lot celebrated; staff says $100,000 donation helped construction
Summary
Staff recapped the Nov. 14 ribbon cutting at the new Linda Tot Lot, naming civic participants and saying a $100,000 donation supported the project; staff said half an adjacent site remains undeveloped and they will seek funding in 2026–27 for additional improvements.
Staff reported that the Linda Tot Lot ribbon cutting on Nov. 14 drew community members, past PBS presidents and city officials, and that a $100,000 donation helped complete the playground. "We had a great support from our city engineer, Coastland, and a really amazing inspector that helped coordinate," the staff presenter said, and noted contractors and city staff were on site for the celebration.
Commissioners discussed the remaining undeveloped half of the tot-lot parcel and possible inexpensive additions such as a picnic table or removal of a marginal ash tree to increase shade; staff said they hope to seek funding for the remaining 0.5 of the area in fiscal 2026–27. The commission also discussed how the new play area interacts with adjacent uses and noted strong neighborhood interest during the opening.
