"The safety pavilion being built over at Singley Park, it's a pretty wide open park, a lot of soccer kids out there, and there really is no shelter if anything should happen there," said Lipani.
"Number one, it adds a nice value to park for picnics, but also a critical safety point for any inclement weather that might show up," said Lipani.
