Summary
Seattle Parks and Recreation has decided to cancel a proposed children's play area at a beach park due to opposition from the LGBTQ+ community and concerns that it would change the current use of the space. The decision follows growing resistance from the public, with more than 9,000 people signing a petition and hundreds opposing the project at a community meeting.
