The city will begin construction in November on shade sail structures at nine city parks to provide coverage and encourage year-round use of playground equipment and picnic areas. On July 21, the City Council awarded a $238,410 contract for the 2015 Shade Sail Installation Project to Southern Hemisphere Shades of Sacramento. Construction is scheduled to begin this month and anticipated to be completed in December. The project is funded by proceeds from the Palmetto Grove sale, which included allocations for parks and recreation improvements throughout the city. As part of the project, shade sails - an engineered canvas cover tension between several anchor points - will be installed over the playground equipment and picnic tables at Community Park, Ford Park, Brookside Park, Crafton Park, Texonia Park, Israel Beal Park, Jennie Davis Park, Heritage Park and Sylvan Park. This project is jointly managed by the city’s Quality of Life and Municipal Utilities and Engineering departments. The city will make a concerted effort to minimize disruptions for residents and patrons in the project area. Signs will be posted indicating dates when work will occur and when park equipment will not be accessible between the hours of 7 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. For more information, please call Kelsey Gormley, project manager, at (909) 798-7655 or Olivia Crowley, community relations coordinator, at (909) 798-7524 ext. 2.
