VISION AND GOALS <br />PARKS, RECREATION & COMMUNITY SERVICES NEEDS ASSESSMENT | 37 <br />TOPIC NEED/COMMUNITY PRIORITY RECOMMENDATION <br />PLAY FOR <br />CHILDREN <br />Play for children is among the <br />community’s most popular activities, <br />as well as one of its greatest ongoing <br />priorities. <br />The City should consider adding play <br />opportunities to Wellesley Park, which does not <br />include a playground and is not located near any <br />other playgrounds. The City should consider <br />integrating new play elements into parks with <br />existing play structures, such as climbers and <br />nature play elements. Community members <br />would also like to see more water play elements. <br />SOCIAL <br />GATHERING <br />Community members desire spaces <br />for social gathering in City parks. <br />The City should continue providing both <br />reservable and non-reservable picnic tables. The <br />City should work with neighborhood residents to <br />understand needs for gathering spaces. <br />FITNESS Fitness activities and facilities <br />are important to Redwood City <br />community members. <br />The City should incorporate fi tness activities and <br />facilities into parks, including trails, programming <br />and/or outdoor gym equipment. The City <br />should consider outdoor gym equipment near <br />playgrounds and along trails. <br />FACILITIES FOR <br />ORGANIZED <br />SPORTS <br />Sports leagues are limited by available <br />fi elds for practices and games. <br />The City should consider adding and/or extending <br />lighting for sports fi elds to increase fi eld capacity. <br />7.A. - Page 55 of 66 <br />167
