      13A.16.05.12E

      “Licensing specialist observed that the wooden play structure on the central playground has a first step that is slanted inwards. It creates an awkward balance which could potentially lead to an accident. Facility states that the step has always been slightly slanted, but that perhaps the weather has caused it to become more unleveled. Facility is asked to make repairs to the wooden step and to send a picture to the OCC.”
