Which paths, landscape features and amenities must the layout accommodate?

Mark the walks, entrances, trees, planting areas, fences, walls, drains, seating and equipment the owner wants reviewed for retention. Add photographs and dimensions, then coordinate the proposed equipment, use zones, surfacing and shade with those site constraints.

A useful renewal proposal identifies what changes and how the surrounding property is treated. Include the route into the work area, removal limits and restoration expectations in the scope discussion.

Paths and entrances
Show pedestrian routes, gate openings and connections to the play area. Identify accessibility priorities, surface transitions and routes that need coordination with the owner and design team.
Landscaping and grade changes
Mark trees, planting beds, walls, slopes and visible drainage features. Identify features the owner wants retained and discuss construction and access restrictions during planning.
Equipment and amenities
Identify equipment, shade, benches, tables and borders proposed for retention or removal. Provide available labels, plans and manufacturer information for compatibility and condition review.
Construction access
Photograph the route from the unloading point to the playground. Show staging space, narrow passages and surfaces requiring protection or restoration.
