Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
The Toledo Community Coalition submitted a District Improvement Program application for the Smith Park Playground Project in District 1. The proposal includes state of the art accessible playground equipment to complement the new Mott Branch Library located at Smith Park. The applicant has been working with the Division of Parks and Recreation on an overall plan for amenities at Smith Park, and the District Improvement Program award would help to fund the estimated $125,000 project. Additional sources of funding have been identified for this project. The District Improvement Review Committee convened on September 16, 2019, and recommended approval of this application in an amount not to exceed $25,000.
