Parks and Recreation Advisory Board FY2003 Goals and Objectives Board Approval:September 10,2002 Council Approval:October 24,2002 Updated:July 3,2003 Page 3 of 3 PLAYGROUND REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR SCHEDULE (Revised June 2, 2003) Presently, there are five play units within the park system that are recommended for replacement. The play units in the following parks are listed according to priority. The year next to the park's name is when the play unit was installed. The prioritized replacement schedule for the following play units will be determined, as funds are available. Hopefully, at least one will be replaced per year. 1. Jack and Dorothy Miller Park(2), south-end play unit, 1989 Replace in FY 2003. Although these multi-play units are only 14 years old, it is recommended to replace the south-end play unit. This is due to its being installed at too low a depth to accommodate the rubber cushion surface that is to replace the loose pea gravel as the fall surface. Some parts of the play unit are difficult to replace because they are no longer manufactured. .2o Hensel Park, 1986 Replace in 2004. Since this park is on Texas A&M University property, it is being coordinated with Texas A&M University. 3. Bee Creek Park, 1986 Replace in 2004. Replace multi-play unit due to age and difficulty and/or inability to get replacement parts. 4. Southwood Athletic Park(2), 1984 Replace in 2005. Replace both multi-play units due to age and difficulty and/or inability to get replacement parts. 5. Lions Park(2), west-side play unit, 1981 Replace with swings in FY 2006. Since there is another newer multi-play unit in the park, it is being recommended that the west-side play unit be removed and replaced with swings that will accommodate both baby and children swings. The play units at Hensel Park, Southwood Park, and Bee Creek Park are in need of replacement due to the cost and difficulty of obtaining replacement parts. Parts for these playgrounds are no longer available due to changes in safety standards or the companies have been bought out making the replacement parts obsolete. When possible, these obsolete parts must be specially manufactured which increases the cost dramatically. Replacing the playgrounds at Hensel Park, Southwood Park, and Lions Park will require separate swing set installations. The play units at Jack and Dorothy Miller Park have no swings to be replaced.
