Conclusion:

In conclusion, the City continues to use best management practices outlined in the CAN/CSA-Z614-14 standards for inspecting and maintaining all city playgrounds to reduce risk of injury to users. After reviewing the inventory of playgrounds across the City and their disbursement administration has found no reason to amend the current inventory to include units that were slated for removal due to proximity to each other or changed demographics. The replacement schedule for playgrounds citywide will c ontinue to be based on the City’ s asset management model, which takes into consideration many things but most importantly condition rating of the unit. While a unit may be old, it will not be taken out of service until it has outlived its serviceable life at which point it will be replaced.
