Shawn Acres Park <br />Shawn Acres is a neighborhood park located in a low -density area in northern Ramsey along <br />Chameleon Street, 1/5 mile north of 173rd Avenue, and west of Thorn Lake. Its playground was <br />placed there before 1980, and it is believed that it was used components at that time. The playground <br />consists of three separate small elements: a rusted metal -pole swing set with three swings, a stand- <br />alone metal slide, and a parallel set of metal bars akin to monkey bars without rungs. The paint on <br />each of three components is peeling. Two of the three swings are inaccessible to younger children <br />and those with mobility limitations without the help of an adult. The slide is also inaccessible to <br />those with mobility impairments. The playground is not ADA compliant, nor does it have resilient <br />surfacing, and has limited or low 'play value'. The terms of this Interim Playground Replacement <br />Policy point to the playground components removal, without replacement. <br />Figure 54: Shawn Acres Park Playground <br />27 <br />
