Survey Results from Summer of 2020 - Helped to guide decisions and planning.
The goal is to offer valuable additions to each site, based on residents' expressed preferences and within a reasonable budget around $250,000 per site. The top desired amenities are 1) shade shelter, 2) tables/benches with shade, and 3) more play equipment. Other additions explored, but outside of the scope of this project include:
Adult Fitness Equipment
Splash Pad
Splash Park
Rubber Surfacing
These items are unachievable due to the expense, noted above, and/or were considered unnecessary due to nearby neighbourhood facilities.
