The water fountain on the far side of the big Cascades playground is leaking badly.

This is a loosestrife. It is highly invasive and I found it growing between the parking lot and the small stream that flows into Jackson Creek, which means that it can spread downstream along the creek.
When is the water going to be turned back on at the Ferguson dog park?
There is a hole forming on the higher platform of the play structure at Schmalz farm park and several kids of fallen because of it.
Dirty needle found by parent on concrete stairs
My name is Lauren and I am the facilities manager at Middle Way House. Yesterday afternoon I found a gas string trimmer tucked behind some bushes in our garden bed. This seemed suspicious so I brought it inside. Does this belong to the landscaping crew?
The parking at Griffy Lake is insufficient for the current demand and the situation will likely only get worse in the future with the much appreciated upgrades to the trails and fishing pier. When the overflow parking is blocked off cars get backed up out to the street waiting for people to leave to take their spot. This creates a huge safety hazard for pedestrians and drivers alike. Could we look into some sort of solution to help reduce this congestion? Perhaps a carpool lot further away? A bus stop? Or even a way to walk from campus safely rather than it being a car required location. If none of those work, could we at least please have the overflow parking always open?
We witnessed a gentlemen badly scratch/dent his car today on the concrete block at the overflow entrance while trying to get out of his parking space. There were vehicles parking other vehicles in, vehicles parked along the roadside, and vehicles parked at the exit. In addition all day there seemed to be a line of vehicles waiting to park as well. Might I suggest that there be a shuttle bus from campus to here on the weekends when it is nice, or perhaps a marked trail that is walkable from parking lots further away (the other parking lot was overfull as well), or perhaps have a staff person on site to keep people/property from being damaged due to trying to maneuver in the parking lot.
There are bare (grassless) spots throughout the park, either carrying over from last year or spots where chopped leaves killed the grass over winter. Please remain leaves as needed and put out grass seed and straw to help prevent the park from becoming a dirt mess and to stave off erosion from around the park structures. Thanks!
Water fountain is not turned on, it had some teenager damage from last year, perhaps there is a work order in on it? I tried replying to your email last time, no go, and for some reason, I could not find a staff directory on the city's website.
