Borough Park Improvements

​Thanks to a DCNR Park Grant, American Rescue Plan Act Funds, Northeast PA Lions Service Foundation Grant and a donation from the Paxtang Lions Club, we are almost completed with Phase 1 of the Saussaman Park Improvement Projects!​

The Phase 1 improvements included: 

• Removal and replacement of existing play structures and installation of safe landing areas surrounding all equipment. 

• Reconfiguration of the existing parking area to provide for van-accessible handicapped parking.

• Creation of ADA accessible pathways from the parking areas to the restroom facility and the upper pavilion.

Added feature coming Summer 2024: The Tennis Courts will soon be 1 tennis court and 2 pickleball courts!​

​

The plans for Phase 2 will include a new fence at the tennis/pickleball courts, new roofs on Building and Pavilion, more paved pathways, and improved bathroom facilities.   As in Phase 1, we will rely heavily on grant funds for Phase 2 plans.
