Dear Parks and Rec,
Thanks for getting new pool lounge chairs at Bryan Park Pool! The other moms and I were just about over the broken old ones. Hopefully these new ones will last longer than the previous ones, which were almost always broken. The new ones have a better design.
At high traffic times, I noted that people were still wandering around to find somewhere to sit or lay. Perhaps ordering a dozen more would be a good idea.
Additionally, though people can certainly bring their own lawn chairs, I think it would be a good idea to have a dozen regular plastic chairs available for people who cannot sit comfortably on the low-to-the-ground pool lounge chairs. It's hard for grandparents or people with limited mobility to get up and down from the loungers.
Thank you,
Lucy Fischman

One of the two infant swings is broken in Schmalz Farm Park. The broken swing is unsafe and has very sharp edges for little children. Hopefully the swing can be replaced before long.

This is about Sherwood Oaks park-(the link from the webpage for the park itself to Ureport is not working) not Elliston Drive-
The growth in the field in this park is getting REALLY tall and woody-is anyone going to come out with a bush hog and cut it all down? You have mowed more in the Goat Farm Park, and you have also cleared out all that brush in the woods between the two parks, so I hope that you plan on mowing in the Sherwood Oaks field soon-
Thank you-

Hello! I am an avid Bryan Park runner. I've noticed that the water fountain near the tennis courts frequently does not work. You can push the button but no water pops up. Sometimes you have to push it 8+ times for it to start working, but sometimes this doesn't even work. Thanks for looking into it!!

It looks like someone has driven some equipment down the paved trail that goes through Renwick subdivision next to Southeast Park, clearing out brush on each side. At first we were thinking it was to aid construction of the unfinished houses down there (with a really dangerous culvert, but that's another issue) but it continues past that site. We thought someone might be clearing out the invasive honeysuckle, but it seemed awfully haphazard for that; there are several small trees that are broken and damaged. They could be widening the trail, but there's no need for that. I think the trail itself belongs to the Parks Foundation. Do you know what is going on down there? Thanks!

On August 21st, I reported a homeless camp at Wapehani Park. It was examined and reported back to me that the camp was on private property. I found this quite strange, because it is on a trail that has a difficulty marker at the beginning of the trail. It totally looks like the other trails in the park and there's absolutely no way to tell it's private property. At any rate, the homeless people have moved on and have left a large amount of trash in what I believe is the park. There are probably 15+ large bags worth of trash - clothes, books, pans, papers, etc. My original report was 165599. I really hope someone will look, because I really don't think what I'm describing is on private property. Thanks for your consideration!
