Please create more shade at Switchyard Park near the playground and splash pad. I was there with a young child and a baby this weekend, and it was impossible to keep the baby in shade while still having a view of the child on the playground or on the splash pad. The grates above the swings do not offer shade, and both shelters were being used by groups/parties. There should be shade structures at the playground and alongside the splash pad. I encountered a number of people with the same complaint.

(Note: This is the third time that I have sent this report. Now, the trash has not been taken out for five weeks. Please help to rectify this.) The owner of this renter-occupied building (Tariq Khan) has not taken the garbage out to the curb for pickup in four weeks. Also, this home has rain gutters and downspouts that go directly into the ground or into areas between the home and neighboring houses - which is causing water damage to the neighboring houses.

There is almost no shade at all in the Switchyard playground. I understand, of course, that nothing can be done in terms of tree cover until the recently-planted ones grow and create more shade, but why in the world do the metal slats above the wooden benches along the west side of the playground not have some kind of canopy over them? They don't block sun or rain and seem to be completely useless. We love Switchyard but it's really inconvenient to not have any shade or rain protection over at least part of the park. I can't imagine it would be very expensive to install some kind of canvas cover above the slats, at the very least.

This is a student rental house, and the students have gone for the semester (I think.). Would you call the owner and let them know about animals are getting into the trash – I don’t have their contact information.

For a few years there was a poolside basketball hoop, which was a great source of entertainment at the pool for many people, especially people who do not use the diving boards or slides. Please reinstall this hoop. Thank you!

There used to be a clock above the lifeguard station. Could you please make an effort to replace it this season? It’s a big help to be able to keep track of time at the pool. (I don’t bring my phone or wear a watch in the pool.) Thanks!
