Trimfoot Park Closed Temporarily

(Farmington, MO) Officials with the Farmington Parks and Recreation Department are announcing a temporary closure of Trimfoot Park at the corner of Pine and Morris Streets as efforts are made to remove moderate amounts of lead contaminated soil. Action to remove and replace soils in Trimfoot Park will begin the first week in September 2023. The soil mitigation project is expected to be completed, weather permitting, no later than the end of September. Overall, the EPA has been addressing its soil removal efforts with highest priority given to schools and facilities attended by the youngest children, and where their potential exposure to lead is greatest. Trimfoot Park is the first park in Farmington to receive soil removal and replacement.
