● Consider a shade shelter or pavillion as a central organizing feature.
● Provide storage, bathrooms, and offices for sports uses and for Camp Sunshine.
● Organize and clarify vehicular circulation to improve safety and expand parking for both the Park & Senior Center.
● Upgrade the playground to meet codes, improve accessibility and safety, and serve a wider age / ability range.
● Improve or replace the picnic area for better accessibility, location, and furnishings.
