There are immediate funding challenges that exist, however the consolidation of units under Option B will help minimize future requirements while still meeting Official Plan requirements. If Council wish to create a sustainable funding model for playground equipment then consideration will be need for annual on-going funding in the range of $1.5M to $2M. Failing to do so may translate into an alternating perpetual state of backlogged parks that are not able to provide playground services

Parks Operations Maintenance Impacts

The City of Windsor playgrounds are inspected monthly to CSA standards and have been since 1990. These inspections ensure the safety of the users and inform us of any potential dangers and hazards that may arise and need repairs. If a playground unit is to the point where parts are no longer available because the company is no longer in business it may be deemed necessary to remove it if it cannot be repaired. CSA standards have changed a number of times since the early 1990s and as a result more onerous testing measures are required to ensure compliance with the current standard.

Parks will continue to monitor maintenance costs for playground equipment. If repair and maintenance costs become a variance issue the department will come forward with an Operating Budget request at that time.
