Burlington fenced off the entrances to Outback Territory Park’s wooden structure after its liability insurance carrier found portions structurally unsound, the Sept. 14 council minutes say.
Council requested a public announcement in the newspaper and on social media explaining why the structure was fenced off. Members also discussed comparing repair costs with the cost of replacing the structure with new equipment. The comparison would depend on what equipment officials considered, and funding would be a factor as they explored options.
