Hi, The lights on Winslow park tennis courts don't come on till 6:15, by which time it gets dark. Can you please turn on the lights earlier? I appreciate your help! - Bipin.

we walk daily in Miller-Showers and I just thought I'd let you know that we've seen a beaver there the last 2 evenings, first by the bridge, then tonight by pond 3. I know you lost a lot of trees last year and some of your new plantings don't have protectors on them yet. thought I'd give you a heads up in case you didn't know.
At Ferguson Dog Park, there is a gap in the gate between the big dog area and the area for small dogs. My friends' big husky is able to get through this gap, so many other dogs could as well. Thank you.
Water fountain issue - Sherwood Oaks Park, by tennis courts: Would it be possible to get the water fountain pressure adjusted so that the water flow is correct? Right now, the pressure is so low/insufficient, you literally would have to put your mouth over the spigot to get any water out of it. Thank you!
The wood mulch surface of the playground structure at Park Ridge park needs replenished. As a regular park goer, it appears to me that the wood has degraded and other wise been slowly moved away from the play area over time. Currently, there is bare ground in spots of high foot traffic and increased potential of erosion from those spots, plant growth, etc. Also, I am not aware of the mulch having been replenished since the park was remade. Given that that renovation was completed 3 years ago, it seems like it is just time to add some more mulch. If it would be helpful to have pictures or additional information, please feel free to contact me and request that. Thank you for addressing this concern. Sincerely, John Metzcar
In reference to case #158545 regarding Park Ridge Park, we looked at the park and the mulch cover appears to be unchanged since the case was closed. There is still a general lack of mulch and several bare spots underneath the playground structure. Also, the first mowing occurred, which is great. Unfortunately, it has revealed bare spots in the grass surrounding the playground, in particular along the north west side of the park. Leaves were piled in that area over winter (and several other areas) and the grass has not come back. Could grass seed/straw be put down in that sloped area northwest of the playground structure as well as other areas that need it? Thank you.
I have a question about the women's league, Is there any rules about a woman that is in the middle of becoming a man still playing in a women's league since they are taking hormones is that a harm to the other woman playing since she would be able to hit the ball a lot harder and throw faster.
