Voice your support for the Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership (ORLP) Grant opportunity for Cassiano Park. A successful grant application would award $2.5 million to supplement the 2022 Bond Program. Based on public input meetings with the Cassiano community, we heard a lot of enthusiasm about new playgrounds. Grant-funded amenities would include these and more! The grant could fund the following improvements:
-A larger splashpad
-An inclusive bay of swing sets - including traditional strap swings, a disc swing, a bucket swing, and a dual-faced "partner swing."
-A new ages 2 to 5 playground with rubberized safety surfacing
-A new ages 5 to 12 playground with ramp-access to elevated play components
-Additional shaded picnic areas
-Rain gardens to enhance the aesthetics of the park and improve the quality of stormwater runoff
