Summary <br />Remove and replace play areas at Marina Park north and south including the water animals on the north end. Look <br />into options to expand the north play area toward the east (Seagull Area) <br />Description <br />Ensure the new play equipment is as resistant to rust as much as possible. Anything that is plastic coated must be <br />galvanized first or stainless steel. Carefully evaluate all parts and warranties before putting out to bid. Consider <br />themes that go along with the water, water animals and boats. New play area should have shade structure over it <br />similar to the 3 new picnic areas. Interlocking rubber mats should be used whenever possible and poured in place <br />should be used when inter locking mats are not feasible. Install more benches on both play areas. Remove the fence <br />around the southern play and replace with something more durable and resistant to rust. North play area will need to <br />have additional pads for benches. Install new water animals on the north end and carefully evaluate the system that <br />turns the water on/off for ease of maintenance and a timer to keep it from being used during off hrs.
