9.2 Beaches Description Evaluation & Recommendations 9.3 Playgrounds and Picnic Sites Description There are three public beach areas: one on the north shore of Lake Linganore at Coldstream Drive, one on the south shore in the Nightingale community, and one at the north end of Lake Merle. All of the beaches have wood racks for boat storage, picnic tables and some fixed barbecue grills. There is a wood timber retaining wall at Coldstream beach where a set of portable outdoor restrooms are provided. It was reported that maintenance for the beaches, including some sand at the Coldstream beach is provided for under the annual operations budget. We have included a cost estimate in the reserve tables for replacement of all of the boat racks and the wood timber retaining wall at Coldstream beach. There are 12 children's playground sites, or tot lots. Each site has various configurations of manufactured playground equipment. The equipment is primarily made of metal and plastic, or plastic coated components. The playgrounds have wood chip surfaces with either wood timber or molded plastic perimeters. In addition to the playground equipment some areas have additional structures including a picnic pavilion at Woodridge and a wood framed gazebo at the Sawyer Road tot lot. Evaluation & Recommendations Most of the playground equipment appeared to be relatively new and in good condition. All of the equipment that we observed was manufactured by Eagle Play Structures or Miracle Recreation Equipment Co. We only observed minimal areas of rusting or wear on some of the older equipment. The wood chip surfaces are well maintained. We have included cost estimates in the reserve tables for eventual replacement of all of the playground equipment based on current condition and the amount of equipment provided at each tot lot. The picnic pavilion is new and constructed of good quality materials. We have included a cost for refurbishment of this structure in the reserve tables. The wood gazebo is in good to fair condition with deterioration and splintering of the wood surfaces. We have included a cost in the reserve table for complete replacement of the structure. 10.0 MISCELLANEOUS 10.1 Vehicles Description Evaluation & Recommendations 10.2 Signage Description Lake Linganore New Market, Maryland Page 15 The Association maintains several motor vehicles for use in security maintenance and operations, including several sport-utility vehicles, one pickup truck and a large tractor.
