Cold Spring Village Board Resolution

Thanks to Mayor Phillips and the Board of Trustees, who passed the following resolution in support of the Friends of the Tots Park this week:

Resolution : Cold Spring Tiny Tots Park Improvement Initiative

Because the Cold Spring Tiny Tots Park (the “Tots Park”) at McConville Park is a valued community resource and beloved gathering spot where young children can play safely together in an ideal outdoor setting, and

Because the Tots Park exists thanks to exemplary ongoing efforts of numerous individuals and community groups working together in the spirit of partnership and volunteerism, and

Because the Village of Cold Spring and its Recreation Commission commit annual resources to the general and ongoing maintenance of the Tots Park, and

Because the play structures at the Tots Park date from 1990-1991 and are showing significant signs of wear, and

Because this winter, two spring-riders and the wooden “boat” structure in the sandpit had to be removed due to major deterioration, and

Because the Friends of the Tots Park, a volunteer group of parents and other interested community members who support the Tots Park, have begun an initiative to improve the playground’s deteriorating condition,

Be it resolved:

That the Cold Spring Village Board of Trustees supports the initiative of the Friends of the Tots Park to replace the play structures and improve the condition of the Tots Park for the enjoyment of all.
