(KMZA)--Plans for the establishment of a toddler park in Seneca has received the green light.

That came during last week's meeting of the Seneca City Council.

Jessica Hermesch, a member of the Seneca Community Fund committee, met with the Council to gain their approval.

The Seneca Community Fund was established in 2023 at the Nemaha County Step Foundation to fund projects related to the improvement and growth of Seneca.

Hermesch said the first goal they are focusing on is overall park improvements around town.

She said the idea of a toddler park came from community feedback.

A toddler park is a playground that features equipment specifically designed for young children.

The toddler park is tenatively planned to be located at the Seneca City Park. Its to be funded through donated funds and grants.

Based on feedback received at the Council meeting, Hermesch said their next step will be to create a Recreation Committee to help set clear priorities for improvements that are part of a long-term plan.

The committee will consist of members of the community, the city and Recreation Director.
