PTSA secures playground funding; town sign design discussion returns to KNA agenda

At the Feb. 2 meeting Lori Patch reported recent PTSA activity and events and parent John Cornell told attendees that the PTSA had raised $26,000 with a promised matching fund by the Department of Education and that playground equipment for younger children had been installed.

On the town sign the association revisited designs Yoshi had commissioned. Members discussed design elements (including a lighthouse motif), materials and who would pay—KNA or local businesses—and generally agreed the current design would need revisions before approval.

Why it matters: the playground funding affects school-age recreation and the town sign raises questions about design, cost and whether the neighborhood association or local businesses will fund the project. No final decision or price was provided at the meeting.
