Parks & Playgrounds:

Other: I wanted to have a meet up with some parents and their children at the park so went to scope it out around 5pm on a Friday afternoon and there were at least eight adults with lots of stuff hanging out and 2 out of 3 restrooms were locked. I know that a public park is for everyone, so I'm talking about of both sides of my mouth, but I didn't feel comfortable and didn't want to have my kids two year old birthday party at the trades park. Seems like a good place to put some more houses, since the park can't be used by everyone. In theory I like the picnic shelters being by the playground so I can sit and eat and watch my kids, but I think I prefer Butler Park while if there are transients who come off the railroad track they aren't at the playground.

You're right that public parks are for everyone, and there are no rules that prohibit hanging out at the park. Our staff try to work with folks to ensure parks remain welcome and open to everyone. If you ahve a concern in a moment, please call the parks office, or -- if there is an emergent issue -- call BPD.
