Basketball Court:
The Springbrook HOA Park had a basketball court at once time, but it had to be removed due to frequent theft and vandalsim. We have no plans to re-install a basketball court.
Pool/ Splashpad:
Springbrook HOA does not collect enough dues each year to pay for the installation and maintenance of a pool or splashpad. Furthermore, Springbrook homeowners do not unanimously desire the addition of these features. It would take a super majority of homeowners to vote for the dues increase that would be needed to pay for it, and all homeowners would need to be caught up on their outstanding dues. Due to these factors, the idea has been tabled.
Irrigation:
We have irrigated half of the park (you may have noticed the lush green grass), and are working on irrigating the other half (the dusty patch) as finances allow.
Park Improvements Already Made:
Trail added, grass added, irrigation added (half), playground added, pavilion added, shaded seating added, park sign added, plants added, landscaping pavers added, shed planting bed added, exercise equipment added (a homeowner driven initiative).
Park Improvements In Progress:
Trees being planted, trail being extended / improved, more landscaping pavers being added, more plants being added.
Possible Park Improvements For The Future:
Overhead trail lighting (solar powered?), extending irrigation to other half of park, more exercise equipment, memorial plaques, shade trees over parking area, more shaded seating, lighting in trees, a better water fountain, a bathroom, a call box, a notice board, etc.
Do you have any other suggestions about ways we can improve the park?
Some ideas we have heard so far are:
Installing Solar/LED park lighting along the jogging trail and under tree canopies.
Adding more flowers and plants in general.
Finishing the landscaping bricks along the walking entrance.
Creating more seating areas.
Adding a tall fence along the back of the park to hide the brush from the land next door.
Adding "doggie droppings" stations.
Lighting the gazebo and playground area.
Planting trees along the parking area for shade.
Creating a nice planting to hide the area between the sheds.
Creating a chain link doggie run.
