"We are currently looking to upgrade the wooden net structure that was removed from the park for user safety.
"We have provided examples of the types of play experiences that we feel would be suitable, in keeping with the location and within the budget, and would like to know your thoughts on the current play equipment, equipment to be installed and possible future play opportunities.”
She added: “As we strive for excellence in all of our play spaces, we invite you to be a part of crafting a vibrant, safe and adventurous play area for children aged six to 14.
