We were at the park Tuesday morning July 4th for a morning walk. We entered by the community garden and walked down the paved path to the BLine trail. We observed 4 transients in the area and camping out in both pavilions. It was fairly early and it appeared they had slept in the park. Is this a common problem?? We are seniors and visit a lot of city parks regularly but are having concerns with safety. So much brushy areas also around paths. The men didn’t approach us and did keep to themselves.
The playground at butler park is rusting and falling apart. It would be great to see some repairs or replacement of that equipment.
This morning at Rev. Butler park the push button of the water fountain by the bathroom was stuck and water had been flowing for what had looked like a long time. I was able to unlodge the button but I'm worried that it could happen again.
There is a substantial amount of horseweed growing in the newest part of the prairie, south of the barn.
The last two Sunday mornings, there have been cars parked on the grass under the trees along the road to the parking lot. This morning there were three. They are compacting the soil where the tree roots are. If you want to discourage this, please post signs and/or move the limestone blocks closer to the road.
Cedar (Juniper?) tree in Rose Hill Cemetery covered in orange fungal infection. South-central-ish part, near to staircase. Thought gardener should know in case it can be treated or might endanger other trees.
Winslow handicap space full of dirt and grass
Hello, I am writing about the gravel paths along the bline. They are very inconsistent on each side, and this limits how my wife with a disability is able to talk up and down the bline. Because it is designed for 2-way taffic, her mobility issue means she hazards the wrong side of the path to get to the very helpful gravel parts. From country club road to 2nd street (i’m unsure of condition further NW, the paths are inconsistenly maintained and at time neither side is very good. I’ve seen many other people that use those paths and believe it is an accessibility issue. We hope they can be restored to how they once were. Many paths are only a few inches wide and not enough and some have over growth from spring, some seem very wide and well maintained but only on one side. Thank you for your consideration to this message. I’m only marking this as a ‘complaint’ rather than ‘suggestion’ because i believe it to be an accessability issue as previously stated.
There is a temporary structure erecte D in Seminary Park. This is a violation of city ordinance.
