Norwalk Plans Northside Park For Young Children
A group of about a dozen Norwalk residents heard plans for a new playground along Glover Street. The project, led by the Mayor's Committee on Human Relations, will be turned over to the Park and Recreation department with equipment like swings and a merry-go-round slated for children aged three to seven and possible basketball hoops. A private owner has leased the site, with opposition from one nearby resident who demands regular supervision, though officials plan no special supervision beyond standard park operation.
