Downey Park in Clinton recently saw it's playground equipment fall into disrepair in spots on the kids' play area.

The City indicates they are aware of the situation and Administrator Tim Followell says the Park was the next in line for attention, so it simply moves up the timeline of them getting to it.

Downey Park is two blocks to the west of Warner Hospital and Health Services on White Street.

Residents may recall, the park is the home to the first responders memorial, at the corner of Southeast Park Street and West South Street.
