Hi all-
I am writing to request that you close all city playground equipment immediately and for the
duration our "stay at home" directive. Everyday I see people on the playground equipment atLegends and can only imagine how many other playgrounds are seeing that kind of activity.
Social distancing is not being considered because no one is sanitizing the equipment inbetween families and multiple families are sometimes there during the day. From what I
understand Covid19 can live several days on metal, especially in the cold. Please direct citystaff to wrap yellow tape around the structures they can and to mark them off limits during our
lockdown. We all know that young kids can not be kept from touching their faces, mouths,noses, etc, and transferring those germs to other surfaces.
Thank you for your consideration and all that you are currently doing to keep us safe and
healthy.
