Each local and regional board of education shall conform the design of any school playground designed on or after July 1, 2025, to the principles of universal design. Such playgrounds shall include, at a minimum, (1) play spaces that appeal to a variety of senses and allow multiple forms of play, (2) landform designed to encourage unstructured play, (3) multiple options for accessing play spaces and equipment that allow for varying levels of ability, and (4) sensory-engaging materials and use of trees and other plantings. As used in this section, “universal design” means a concept of designing spaces with the goal of maximizing usability and access, without the need for adaptation or specialized design.
