Below are details of the two types of benches we permit to be used in our parks and open spaces. Fees apply for the purchase and installation of a new bench with a plaque. Alternatively in instances where no additional benches are required, customers can purchase or adopt a bench by purchasing a plaque, fees for such are also applicable.
