The portion of sidewalk that overlaps with the driveway is tilted at a harsh sideways angle. Pavement very patchy and hard to navigate in wheelchair
Lots of poison ivy at a mccsc bust stop on the chickering property.
One pickle ball net is too high and the other one is too low. It's the courts furthest from the police station.

The lights installed at the RCA Park Pickleball Courts are incredibly bright and send light hundreds of feet into the surrounding park, the woods near the park, and the surrounding homes close to the park. It is a real disruption to those of us who live near the park and I am also concerned about the disruption it has on local wildlife. Would it be possible to have the lights adjusted in some way to reduce the overall light pollution either by lowering their output or changing the angle? I have photos of the issue I can send if that would be helpful.
