TrailMark Park Playground Improvements
Designs for a new playground at TrailMark Park are complete! Proposed improvements include upgraded playground equipment and rubberized safety surfacing to increase accessibility around the playground. A new shade pavilion will replace the existing structure which is at the end of its useful life. New park benches, as well as standard, and ADA accessible picnic tables will provide comfortable places for people to rest while visiting the playground.
