City of Lakeport issued the following announcement on Oct. 26.
Great news! Due to the hard work by our Parks maintenance staff, the playgrounds at Library Park reopened on Monday, October 26!
Our crew has been working diligently to clean and prepare our playground equipment in order to make the area as safe as possible – but remember, we must all follow social distancing and good hygiene protocol!
When visiting our playgrounds, please:
• SANTIZE OR WASH YOUR HANDS: Bring your hand sanitizer to use before, during, and after play.
• WEAR A MASK: Wear your cloth face coverings when other households are present, and parents/guardians should distance themselves by 6-feet from other adults.
• KEEP YOUR DISTANCE: Most importantly, please maintain distance with other park users. When you arrive follow capacity limits posted at each playground. If you notice a group of families waiting their turn, please be gracious and limit your time in the playgrounds to allow others a chance to play!
Please note that equipment will not be sanitized, as this is impractical to do. Also, the CDC / Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has advised spraying disinfectant on playground equipment in public parks is not believed to be an efficient use of disinfectant supplies and has not been proven to reduce the risk of COVID-19 to the public. Good hygiene practices are an area of personal responsibility, and we are confident our families will use the playgrounds safely.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation!
