BOISE, Idaho — On Feb. 6, the playground at Castle Hills Park caught fire, resulting in the Boise Parks and Recreation department removing the playground, leaving a hole within the heart of the park. Months later, plans have moved forward on how to replace this playground.
A voting period has opened up in order for the public to provide input on two new designs for the proposed playground.
Voting is open until Friday, April 19 at 5 p.m. The survey has one question.

There are two possible designs that Boise Parks and Recreation are looking at, both are disability friendly. They said that the two designs are "based on budget availability, design elements, and accessibility standards."
Fire crews responded to a "large playground fire" on North Eugene Street just after midnight on Tuesday, Feb. 6. At approximately 1:30 a.m., Boise police officers were called to the scene to begin an arson investigation.
Below are images of the fire that caused the playground to be redesigned.
