Bottom of fence on north east corner of the court(s) curls up from the ground significantly creating an intermittent but substantial gap which allows sports equipment: balls etc. to escape the perimeter fence leading to frequent stoppages during games.
Hello! My kid and I frequent RCA playground often and it’s one of our favorite places in town. Especially because it’s walking distance to Summit Elementary. As my kids gotten older we re now playing over at the basketball court at RCA. One recurring problem there is that there is no back fence behind the back side of the basket ball court. Balls roll down the hill and into the woods if you don’t catch them or miss the backboard. It seems to be a big deterrent for why people don’t play much basketball there. The pickle ball courts have a nice tall fenced in area for their section. Extending the tall chainlink fence for the back side of the court would tremendously improve the basketball court section. We love that the hoops are low for the little kids and would love to see it being used more. We’ve lost a few balls to the woods and every time I recover ours I find a few others too. Thank you.
The photo shows a tree memorial plaque downslope from Bryan Park tennis courts. It is badly damaged and the tree is gone. I posted this on Facebook and got some dismayed comments. Are then any plans for this? I think the policy is to "guarantee" the plaques for 5 years. There's no way to guarantee the tree, but i have seen at least one replanting. Thanks!
Both basketball hoop nets are very deteriorated to the point of not working
Please Mow Softball Field at Rev. Ernst D. Butler Park (812 W. 9th St.) Thank You!
The bottle filler that is between the basketball court and the giant chair, it trickles continuously.
A swings is broken
We have cleared some brush for line of sight along the Sheridan/Southdowns corridor and left the debris at the intersections of S. Ballantine Rd & E. Sheridan Dr, and also at the corner of E. Sheridan Dr and S Hawthorn Dr.
Followup on 214366 Your conclusion: "Thank you for your report. Parks staff will work to inventory invasive bittersweet at Bryan park, and work to manage as resources permit." Given your limited resources, maybe you could hand this off to MC-IRIS and their "weed wranglers." In general, to stretch resources, look to volunteers. One project that's on hold is the "unofficial path" east of the southeast corner of the basketball court---it's a dangerous disgrace. It was too much for the Eagle Scout, but a small bridge across that area wouldn't be impossible for people with the expertise and equipment. Finding them is the issue.
Hi son, just picked up and handed me this ripped off corner of a baggie that looks like drugs that you would smoke. This is not the first time we found needles or drugs at this park. The city should have a place where you can just put in needles and drugs submissions. I can only imagine what would happen if my son would’ve picked us up and eaten the contents of the baggie. Luckily, I was standing right next to him when he picked it up.
