roof that was chipped approximately 7 inches long exposing fiber glass in one area and

that was not attached to the pole, creating a hole big enough for an adult's arm to fit through.
3. The chain link gates, approximately 8ft in length, were rusted and created very sharp pieces of metal.
4. Two pieces of play equipment on the playground, the merry-go-round and the pedala-
go contained chipped paint that was also creating rust.
