Smart Fix for Central Winds Field Lighting Saves Money and Restores Peace

We’re pleased to share a great update for our residents and athletes who frequent Central Winds Park’s upper baseball and softball fields. After receiving concerns from the community about a persistent buzzing noise from the lighting system, the City of Winter Springs took swift action and delivered a smart, cost-effective solution.

Rather than moving forward with a full lighting system replacement, which would have come with a hefty price tag, the city team identified a more efficient path: repairing the ballasts within the existing system.

The buzzing issue has now been resolved, and the field lights are fully operational at just a fraction of the cost originally proposed.

This approach not only addressed the nuisance impacting field use and enjoyment, but it also demonstrated a thoughtful commitment to fiscal responsibility. By making a targeted repair instead of replacing the entire system, the city avoided unnecessary spending while still meeting the needs of the community.

I want to thank our Parks & Public Works teams for listening to feedback and taking prompt action. This is a great example of how responsive government and smart planning can lead to better outcomes for everyone.

If you have additional concerns or ideas about park improvements or recreational needs in Winter Springs, I’d love to hear from you. We’re building a better community together, one thoughtful decision at a time.
