The event is reminiscent of small town America and is a touching tribute to the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and for our Nation. It is the ultimate decision for places that are often exposed to water. Enter the splash pad-or its cousins, the immersive fountain, water playground, and "wet plaza." These urban oases offer residents a refuge from the summer singe, provide accessible recreational opportunities, and create a heat-friendly public space. Frederick County’s public safety system is truly one of the best. A hot topic in Frederick County is residential growth. Frederick County continues to lead the way. I believe that new development needs to pay its way. Cromwell: $3,000,000 for cleanup and redevelopment of the former Red Lion Hotel at 100 Berlin Road into a 254-unit mixed-use development. Bateman Park - Runs from the south side of Bateman Road to the Hydro right-of-way - has a playground with a play structure and a swing set. Opened in 2007, its location is at Knoxdale and West Hunt Club Road.
A splash pad is an aquatic play ground area for kids, familys and even pets. Most splash pads feature ground sprays that shoot water through the surface of the splash pad at varying heights and patterns. Therefore, splash pads provide a safe, soft surface for water play, minimizing injuries and providing endless outdoor fun for all ages. Built in England and featuring simple, reliable operating equipment and low water usage, The Dolphin Splash Pad is a modular based medium sized water play area designed for self-installation in holiday parks looking for a water park that is fun, safe, reliable and easy to operate. If you’re looking for a cool-down solution that is affordable, safe, and easy to maintain, then consider a residential splash pad. With Aqua Tile, you’re not just investing in a safer water play area - you’re investing in peace of mind. A recreational splash pad from our establishment is an economical technique to add a protected environment, child friendly play area to any new home or existing home landscapes. Splash Works also received its third and most current upgrade, with the addition of a child water playground area called Splash Island and the removal of Pipeline.
Since this extra school mitigation fee falls short of covering the actual cost of a needed school seat, I proposed raising the fee to cover the current cost of school construction. I proposed to the county council, and the majority agreed, to eliminate an option that allowed developers to "buy out" of school overcrowding requirements by paying an extra fee called a school construction or school mitigation fee. While no new developments will be able to use this school "buy out" option, a number of previously approved developments retain the right to "pay and go" even if schools are seriously overcrowded. We take even the smallest details into account so you can get the most out of your splash pad. The rain clouds cleared to allow folks to come out and enjoy these great community events. The eight-tower, 15-acre, 4.3 million square foot mixed-use community will include condos, retail, office, green space, community amenities and two acres of public parkland.
I also want to thank our emergency responders and our Public Works crews for the outstanding job they did during the torrential rain and flooding we experienced May 15th and the days that followed. We need your damage estimates to help us qualify for emergency aid. We can help you through this process as it may seem cumbersome to do so, not with us, we will do the leg work to help your project become a success. I have surveyed the damage with representatives from FEMA and our federal delegation and we will be seeking federal funds to help our residents and businesses repair. As County Executive, I have publicly shared the significant cost of these terrible deals on county residents and have identified the need for almost $500 million to upgrade roads and provide needed schools. People rightly complain about overcrowded schools and congested roadways. The motion to add the hearing to the next meeting was passed unanimously. So, if you want to add a spray park to your commercial space, be prepared for a bit of a wait. With our unique above-ground features that bolt onto the platform, you can get the same look as a permanent splash pad and have a fun and moveable water park experience.
