This is as good an explanation as I’ve ever heard. Seems silly though given the maintenance that already takes place with respect to lawn mowing. If trees are the concern then why not large fabric sails? The park equipment is super pricey to begin with so I can’t imagine we are taking huge extras.

No trees near water. Algae, maintenance.

It also means no one uses the park when it’s hot, so less maintenance in that regards. I could definitely design an unusable park that had zero maintenance fees :)
