Picnic area shade structure installed in Fountain Hills

Near Rotary Splash Pad

Late last week shade structure installers erected the covered area for the new picnic site in Fountain Park near the splash pad water play area.

The 55-foot by 60-foot shade canopy was installed over an area to cover a 21-table configuration. The project also includes landscaping and sidewalk connectivity to existing amenities. A timetable for that work is yet to be determined.

“The turf ‘dirt area’ between the splash pad and businesses at Plaza Fountainside has been an eyesore and a source of consistent complaints by both businesses and residents,” Community Services Director Kevin Snipes said.
