Homeless man and friends congregating in the building and trades park - upper shelter house. Drinking most days of the week. I Have witnessed them drinking a case of bud lite as well as pouring a handle of liquor into their water bottles. This would not normally bother me, however I am a homeowner in the near vicinity. I have witnessed a decline in the amount of people bringing their kids to the park due to this increase in the homeless population as well as their increase in how comfortable they (I.e. Dogs off leash, air mattress, sleeping bags, etc). I have recently done a lot of work to my house and am worried that this activity in this park will affect my property value. I would appreciate if there was some way to address this homeless population in my neighborhood park. If there could be more patrols by the park at random times throughout the day as well as at at night (they sleep under the shelter house as well) I feel that it may help stop some of this activity. As a young female; I am hesitant to contact the police at each one of these instances for fear of retaliation/they know where I live/may know it's me calling.

Caller complained that the playground at Country View is in disrepair: grass growing under the equipment, inadequate equipment, etc. I'm not even sure this is city property -- obviously not a Parks & Rec-maintained park. Also complaints about crumbling sidewalks, unpaved parking lots, etc.

I'm worried about a mallard nest in the park - that the mom and eggs will survive with dogs etc. in the park. Just wanted to make you aware. It's located in the weedy area around the ditch that flows north to south, near a bird house.

Southeast Park is beautiful but there are two trees in the easement on the way around the bend from Montclair heading south then west on Arden that hang out over the road. If you stay in our lane on the curve coming on to Arden at the park by the baseball diamond, you're going to clip both trees. Could they be trimmed back a bit in the road area? Thank you so much.

Frequent visitor to Building Trades Park reported many issues while setting up for a Labor Day family picnic. Two homeless men sleeping under the shelter and one sleeping on the ramp. Two homeless men locked themselves into the bathrooms for 30+ minutes, making the bathrooms inaccessible to anyone else. Left the bathrooms a wet mess, threw up on the side of the building. Visitor called police (non-emergency) and left after 35 minutes when police still hadn't shown up -- moved her family picnic to another location.

I picnicked in Bryant Park this afternoon and noticed a woman collecting plastics. I approached her and it turns out she a conscientious homeowner who lives in the neighborhood. She apparently petitions consistently to have the parks put in recycling cans. I would like to add my voice to the hers and the many others who are surely requesting such a service. Please install recycling cans in the city parks. Thank you
