Could a playground win this?
Possible fit Medium confidence
Playgrounds are not named, but outdoor equipment for public use and outdoor neighborhood gathering space improvements are allowed, so play equipment, shade or seating in a public outdoor space could fit.
Examples of potential programs may include: educational environmental programs, expansion of staff time for existing outdoor programming, the purchase of outdoor equipment for public usage, and supplies for outdoor neighborhood gathering space enhancement.
The CFO welcomes innovative ideas which support outdoor community placemaking.
