We cleaned the ditch between E Southdowns Dr and E Sheridan Dr. The debris has been stacked at the intersection of S Ballantine and E Sheridan Dr. Would the city parks dept please set a date for pick-up? Thank you. V/r, Mark
One of the swings at Butler Park is broken. Lots of kids out there and we really need this swing. It just needs a tool to place the chain back on the seat. Thanks so much!!
I don't like th enew pool pass system. I lost mine, and quite a bit of money as a result. Please go back to keeping them at the pool, or make them electronic somehow.
There has been extensive vandalism to the Bryan Park split rail fence that runs along Woodlawn Avenue.
The water from the spigot next to the Bryan Park tennis courts is spraying rather than streaming, which makes it difficult for dogs to get a drink.
The tree in the photo has grown to the point where the bike parking can't be fully used. As seen in the photo, the spots not covered by the tree are full. If the tree was cut back a little, one more bike could park. The concrete pad is large enough for 2 more bike racks that could park 4 more bikes. It appears those racks may have been removed in the past to accommodate more tree growth.
July 4 there were fireworks shot off in RCA park until at least 1:30 in the morning. This later led to shouting and what sounded like arguing before someone finally called the police to break up the situation. I was wondering why the city allowed fireworks to be shot off by private citizens in the park? Why when the park is supposed to be vacated at dark there were people there long after dark? Why the city had to call out a city worker on a Sunday to clean up the mess that was created? and finally what the city is going to do about the constant problems that occur after dark in this park? If it can't be serviced and maintained by the city then maybe something else needs to be done.
While visiting Bryan Park on 8/9, I observed mowing with a gas engine lawn mower of grass already at a very low height. Greenhouse gas emissions are a concern from unnecessary mowing, and the area being mowed was very large. For a city with a sustainability office, one would expect either the use of electric lawn equipment and/or mowing only when necessary. Please consider training staff to mow using environmentally friendly practices.
Can we remove the bump in the middle of the Bryan Park lot at Henderson and Allen? As you turn from Henderson into the parking lot its nearly impossible not to crash into the bump. It makes no sense, has no signage and the paint is always faded. Two grandmas just trying to bring their grandkids to the park hit it this week. How many cars need to be destroyed by this parking lot? Remove it or paint it or put more signage on it.
There is significant erosion occurring in Park Ridge Park on the col-du-sac side of the park. I was hoping the park and this issue could be put on the list to receive new grass or whatever attention it needs to reduce the erosion. Thank you.
