Water fountain bottle filler has been running for several minutes and will not turn off
There is no drinking water for pool patrons
The park is a mess with multiple items of furniture like mattresses and cabinets. It feels unsafe and unsanitary.
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.
Hole in the ground East of the parking lot toward Walnut St. that used to be covered by plastic is now broken and hazardous.
Building and Trades Park is a great neighborhood park that receives frequent use by diverse groups and individuals. This park is not a "blight", as others have described. The recent improvements to the park, including the pavilion and accessible trail, are well-utilized and appreciated. As a Prospect Hill resident, I look forward to continued improvements to the park in the near future. I trust that the Parks Department will engage with the various stakeholder groups who regularly utilize this park when considering what additional improvements are needed. One quick suggestion: have a Movies in the Park night here, I'm sure the neighborhood would come out for it. Keep up the good work!

One court's net post is leaning so far over, the net is almost unusable. Thank you!
