Playground equipment?
OneCrazyMommy asked:
I am not sure where to post this question, so I will try here first.
I want to ask the apartment owner about replacing the swingset/slide playground equipment. The current one is old, rotting, has rusty nails coming out of it and is not safe. I (along with all the other parents) would use the area if it were replaced with a safer set.
*How do I go about presenting this idea to the owner?
*If he is not willing to replace it are there any sort of grants. (We live in San Diego County)
*If there are no grants I was thinking about asking the other residents to pitch in a few bucks (there are 40+ units in this complex)

Any ideas on how to do this successfully?
I am thinking about presenting this with the following points:
It will make the apartments more desirable.
Less liability as far as the current playground goes.
Also where can I go online to get some prices and some ideas?
Thanks in advance!
