An emergency order has been issued to expedite the opening of Playland Amusement Park’s 2025 season.
Westchester County Parks, Recreation and Conservation Commissioner Kathy O’Connor issued the order, saying, “The Emergency order will allow the County to hire a company to inspect specific rides, secure all necessary supplies and parts to operate the rides, repair and thereafter maintain the rides. Standard's abrupt departure leaves the County with little time to properly carry out all of this work. Standard left little or no spare parts in inventory, in some cases did not properly winterize rides and a number of rides were left dis-assembled.”
The Parks Department determined that competitive bidding could not be pursued due to the urgent nature of the situation. It has selected Zamperla, Inc. to do the needed emergency work to open up the park.
