Downey Park Playground Equipment to Be Approved in March

When the Clinton City Council convenes in for the first time in March, playground equipment for a Clinton Park will be on the agenda for approval.

 

Monday morning on the WHOW Morning Show, City Administrator Tim Followell reminded residents Downey Park's playground recently fell under disrepair earlier this year and had to be taken off.

 

 

The new park equipment will have taller, enclosed slides and rubber chips surrounding it. Followell says residents in the community will greatly enjoy what they have planned.

 

 

The equipment is big enough to hold 60 kids at a time and Followell says it will be purchased brand new for just over $61-thousand. 

 

 

Monday night at the Clinton City Council meeting, Followell put a call for local first responders to join them in a community build day since the park is home to the first responders memorial at the corner of West South Street and Southeast Park Street. He is targeting the summer as when they host the community build day.
