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
People setting off fireworks in the tlsp parking lot. Call police they did run them off but I do not think they I’d them
There are some loose bolts on the green bouncy rhino at south east playground. I was going to tighten them but they require a special wrench.
The integrated playground at Winslow park is directly adjacent to a high voltage solar panel area. This evening, while using the walking path, my husband and I observed 2 VERY young little girls INSIDE the high voltage fence area. They had climbed over the low fence into the solar panel area. I'm sure this is a major liability to parks and rec. My husband and I warned them out of the area and they climbed the fence easily. They looked to be about 6 YO....and as we walked on and looked back they were coming back with a friend. I warned them of the danger and they turned back.
I have lost my keys in Bryan Park. They have a yellow elastic hand bracelet. Can you contact me if found? I have also lost other keys there. Is there somewhere to go to check what you have?
An older couple frequently brings their three dogs to Ferguson Dog Park. One of those dogs, is an 18 month old intact male Doberman Pincher. He has attempted to mount my 11 year old, spayed Aussie mix. If he is successful in putting his body on hers, she will fight back. And we know that a young intact male dog that is nearly 8 inches taller than her will indeed make a mess of my life. I have seen them there on three occasions, causing other visitors abiding by the law/rules of the park, to become agitated and thereby leaving, just as I did. The couple drives a newer model Land/Range Rover, dark grey, always in spectacular condition. They are often there midday or late afternoon. It would be very helpful if someone puts a BIG SIGN on all gates stating that only spayed and neutered dogs are allowed. Please help us keep our law abiding, special companions and masters safe. This couple has made it clear that they simply don't care.
There have been a number of people sleeping in Bryan Park on the Woodlawn side by the shelter. It started with one hanging out in the shelter then has progressed to several in the field next to it. It is disturbing because of families using the shelter could be endangered by what we all know these people leave behind. A neighbor asked me to include his observation that unhoused frequent the shelter next to the baby playground, and the smell of pot is coming into the playground. I don’t know what is different, but the park is not as well mowed as in the past. It was always beautiful. I chalk it up to all of the rain. Just an observation. It is our favorite place in the world and we care about it. We go every day. Thank you for listening
Thanks for removing the pools contributing to the drainage issues. Now, can the standing mud pits along the fencelines be infilled? The fine gravel at the end of the parking lot could be a helpful infill to cover the slimy mud, couldn't it?
Why am I not able to send a Ureport by cellphone, or is it that it will not go through on a weekend? Today I filed Ureport 188867 on my computer. But yesterday I tried 4 times to send it by cellphone, and it would not go through. And I have had this problem before while trying to file reports while I am in the park.
