One of the swings broke at the playground. Missing a link. See pic
A tree has fallen over the sidewalk near the bridge
We found another used syringe at the playground next to the swings this afternoon. Luckily, we saw it just before our son stepped on/over it. We disposed of it in the garbage can. Just thought we’d report this issue as we seem to be seeing more of them.
The connector trail between the B-Line and Butler Park could use some lighting such as lampposts and/or sconces on the bridge. It would cost some money but it should be possible to tap power from the utility post and light at the end of the trail in Butler Park itself. It gets very dark there at night and some more lighting could go a long ways towards improving safety in this heavily trafficked area.
The grey faux-rock climbing feature at the playground has feces smeared on it. I do not know if Parks maintenance has the appropriate tools to wash it off and dispose of it, but if you do it would be great if you could clean it up. (I try to clean up things I see at the park, but this is beyond my abilities!) The attached photo shows the climbing feature, but doesn't really show the feces.
trees and brush need cut back, trail is blocked in certain areas.
trail is overgrown. The new ADA paint on two paved parking spots near the tennis courts is nice. HOwever, the paved trail is way to rough to safely use due to roots, pot holes and poorly repaired cuts. anyone using a walker, chair or other will not be able to use much of this trail. These rough spots are a tripping hazard as well. thaks for repairing.
East restroom needs tolit paper
I am smelling a campfire but cannot figure out the exact location.
