Playground closed for safety repairs
On March 4, the children's playground at Vasona Lake County Park was closed for improvements. The Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department will need to replace the rubberized safety surface on the playground, said Reese Seah, the department's assistant civil engineer.
Existing rubber tiles on the bottom of the slide and on the swing areas are peeling off and will be replaced with one whole slab. According to Seah, the project cost estimate is $20,000. It's estimated that the children's playground, Vasona's only playground, will reopen on March 29.
