Sign not properly planted into the ground at the skatepark. It's barely into the earth with no apparent concrete footer underneath. I don't know if someone fell against it or if it was the insane winds the other day that pushed it back like this.
We were at Olcott Park on Sunday, Nov. 24. The foam/rubber covering on the ground of the playground has gotten very loose and lumpy, which is dangerous because little kids (and adults) trip on the lumps.
Time to clear out all the saplings, vines, weeds, etc. from underneath all the Norway spruce in Bryan Park. No my first report on this, but now it is (late) fall.
Hi, i just found another used needle in the playground at Rev. Butler Park. This is in addition to one i found under a picnic shelter earlier this earlier. The City absolutely must provide sharps containers at every park! I know or at least two other community members who have shared their concerns with the City about needles at Butler Park. The first child that steps on a dirty needle and sues the city will be so unfortunate. Posting sharps containers in public places is a totally accepted best practice to promote the safety of both the general public, and the needle using community. Please.
Re: Switchyard park. Some "cross traffic does not stop" signs where appropriate near the Rogers entrance might be considered. Maybe some "buzz strips" to slow incoming traffic off Rogers and give an aural alert to bikers/peds/distracted drivers.
Hi, Regarding Park Ridge Park, as the fall leaf season approaches, I want to bring up leave removal at the park. It does seem as though some bare ground did develop at the park this season and I would say that it is due in part to the lack of leaf removal. Neighborhood residents might be able to aid in getting our very shaded and "treed" park cleared. To make the most of that, we would appreciate it if Parks and Rec or some other city agency could help out with coordinating with the leave removal crews to ensure that if we do gather the leaves that they will be picked up. Is that something that the department can help out with? Thanks as always, John
