Improve bathrooms, including adding a new public restroom with exterior entrance for play field and adjacent playground visitors
Comply with the Americans with Disability Act (ADA)
Increase property values for neighboring homes Create better community meeting spaces Feature EarthCraft-certified eco-friendly
construction Add heat to prevent winterizing the facility
