Harvey County proposes multiple playground replacements across parks
Summary
The parks packet proposes replacing playground equipment at Camp Hawk, East Park, Willow Bend and West Park (the latter at $125,000), citing safety, accessibility and heat concerns for existing metal equipment.
Harvey County’s capital plan includes multiple playground-replacement requests: $125,000 for West Park and $50,000 each listed for Camp Hawk and East Park (Campers Row), plus a Willow Bend replacement. The packet repeatedly notes the current metal equipment gets hot in summer, lacks adequate fall-surface protection and is not accessible to all visitors.
Department text explains prior capital funding was shifted to the East Park bait-shop construction, delaying playground replacements. The materials state there is "no significant impact on the operating budget anticipated" for the replacements, though they warn delays could increase future replacement costs and risk of injury.
