There is a downed power inside the north entrance to Cascades. Looks like a tree fell and took the line down. The tree has been removed but the line has been down on the ground for at least a week. I assume the electricity is off but it is not safe just to leave it down on the ground. If the power was accidentally turned back on people's lives could be endangered.

I can no longer walk at Griffy Park because it has become a dog free for all. The last few times I have walked there I have encountered numerous dogs running free and dog owners who claim the dogs have a right to run free. The worst situation is when 2 or 3 dogs aggressively approach me on the trail. The city needs to enforce the dog laws.

A section of the wood fence at the Howe St entrance to the Buildings and Trade Park was taken down when the city cut down one of the trees along the street. It has been 2 months and the pieces of the fence are still where they were left on the ground. In true broken window fashion someone has now broken down the far end of the fence. This should have been repaired long ago.

The Ferguson Dog Park lot desperately needs to be cleared of snow. I believe more folks take their dogs out in cold weather than parents take their children out. It is in bad shape and very difficult to navigate. Other than that, we love this park!

At Butler Park 9th St. when sledding down the hill from the restroom/shelter area there is a tree in the middle of the run which creates a hazard. Many children have crashed into the tree. Please respond to discuss. Hoping for the tree to be removed.
