Item # 8.1.A. <br />ver <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Parks and Recreation Commission <br />FROM: Bill Maertz, Parks and Recreation Director <br />DATE: August 8, 2007 <br />SUBJECT: Meadowvale Heights Park Playground <br />Residents from the neighborhoods adjacent to Meadowvale Heights Park were invited to <br />attend a workshop after the July 11`'' Parks & Recreation Commission meeting. Staff <br />provided large posters full of various playground equipment and the residents were given <br />brightly colored dot stickers for them to apply to the equipment they liked. The posters <br />were then given to the playground designers, which they used to come up with a <br />recommendation for what type of structure could be built in Meadowvale Heights Park. One <br />factor in the playground design was the preferred location. Due to limited space, free <br />standing elements such as swing sets were not included. <br />Staff recommends building a playground in Meadowvale Heights Park in 2008 for $50,000. <br />Budget would include playground equipment, benches, picnic table and cement edging for <br />the perimeter of the playground. <br />Staff will provide a location map on August 8`''. <br />ATTACHMENT: <br />Playground exhibits <br />Playground cost estimate <br />
