The new dog park at Switchyard is very pretty, but it lacks basic amenities to make it really useable. At the Ferguson park there is access to water in the park (not outside the gates) and it’s a spigot that can be used to fill a bowl. The setup at Switchyard makes it basically impossible to spend more than a few minutes in hot weather. Also, it looks like there was a plan to have a dog rinse area like at Ferguson, but it’s just an empty vestibule. Could you at least run a hose as a temporary measure? Especially if there are going to be permanent mud puddles right by the entrance. There’s also nowhere shaded/sheltered in the park. The pergola over the outer seating area looks cute but isn’t very practical. I’ve hiked the quarter mile with my dog on weekend days only to find no one there and had to leave basically immediately because the park is essentially unusable on a hot sunny day. Everyone is at the old park on those days.

Someone has left a small cat bed and placed out water and food at the Rogers Family Park (Goat Farm). The water and food dishes are close to the parking lot. I do not want my dog to eat food from the park and he almost got it before I saw it.

The drinking fountain needs attention. Drain plugged on one side and water spraying out of fountain too hard to get a drink.

Case# 188472 Sorry, The problem is at the Park Ridge Park, Longview Avenue and North Glenwood Avenue West. Someone familiar with how the drinking fountain works could possibly fix it quickly. It appears the drain is clogged on the lower of the two fountains and the water pressure when you press the button to activate it, is too high! So, if you could have someone take a look at it and make the needed adjustments, that would be great! Thanks, Warren
