GALT, CA (MPG) - A slide at the Sports Complex Playground has been temporarily closed following an act of vandalism, according to a social media post by city officials on July 16.

The damaged playground feature has been barricaded while city staff work with the manufacturer to obtain a replacement. Officials have not announced a timeline for repairs.

The closure affects only the slide area, which has been fenced off to prevent public access while the replacement process moves forward.

City officials are asking park visitors to avoid the closed section of the playground and to leave all barricades and safety barriers in place.

The city said updates will be provided as more information becomes available regarding repair plans and the reopening of the playground feature.
