Exciting update for NEW PLAYGROUNDSโผ๏ธ
In case you missed it, we successfully pushed for FIVE new playgrounds in Council District 14 through the 2024 bond program: Willis Winters, Tietze, Cochran, Exall, and Cole, in that order.
Now we're ready to share the first design and renderings for Willis Winters Park, and we want you to be a part of it.
This project has followed a comprehensive, community-drive process I built specifically for our council district's new playgrounds. For Willis Winters Park, that meant working closely with Friends of Willis Winters Park - formerly Randall Park board members to review multiple concepts from multiple vendors, narrow down to the top candidates, refine through several iterations, and finally advance a design that optimizes scale, safety, durability, community needs, and long-term value.
That brings us to today! We're now ready to share the proposed design with the broader communities, and that includes you!
Even more exciting: this same process will guide the four additional playgrounds coming to Tietze, Cochran, Exall, and Cole in the months and years ahead.

This is about raising the bar on how we plan and deliver new playgrounds across Council District 14: consistent, high-quality, and shaped by the community. Playgrounds were a top priority for me throughout the 2024 bond process, and now it's time to deliver positive outcomes. Join us and help shape what comes next! โค๐ณ๐
