Please briefly describe the need for your project in 1-2 sentences. (Ex: “Playground equipment is unsafe and unsuitable for young children, so families drive to a park outside our neighborhood to play.”)

Please briefly describe the project (3-4 sentences) and how it meets the need described above (Ex: “Aging playground equipment will be replaced with elements that cater to children aged 0-5, 5-8, and 8-12 to accommodate neighborhood families as they grow. Additionally, new drainage will be installed to prevent flooding.”)

Include detailed location, construction plans, materials detail or product specifications for amenities, and any other important information pertaining to the project.
