Parents and children in Germantown planning to visit the play structures at Municipal Park will need to temporarily adjust their plans. The playground will be closed today and tomorrow due to scheduled maintenance. According to a recent announcement from the city's official website, new sod is being installed to enhance the park grounds.
New sod needs care, time to take root, and no foot traffic—so the city has roped off the area. If the weather stays clear and the work goes smoothly, the playground should reopen soon. The contractor will be on site to make sure the new grass gets the proper care.
Residents have been thanked in advance for their cooperation – which, unspoken, also means their understanding no doubt – for the inconvenience posed by the two-day closure. Remember, this is all part of the city’s plan to "make these park improvements," as noted by the city's official website.
