There is an area close to the entrance where water gathers. It becomes slippery and yesterday was slimy and stinky. Could it be filled with dirt or stone to avoid this. Dogs were rolling in it and really stinky. Also seems a health hazard.

Homeless people of seminary park have stolen 4-5 shopping carts and have their crap in them. Please send police to deal with these people, issue tickets and return shopping carts to the local merchants. Thanks!

Previous report (185419) says the city returns “abandoned” shopping carts when found. The real issue is the homeless (seminary park) are using these shopping carts and nobody is confronting them about stealing these shopping carts from local merchants. Just today (9/6/23) I saw multiple “city workers” at seminary park while people there had shopping carts full of crap but nobody doing anything about the issue. These are not the property of these people just because they stole them. Merchants aren’t selling these shopping carts. These are obviously stolen and the people need held accountable and the shopping carts returned. Thanks!!!

I'm writing with a complaint/suggestion about the mowing of Bryan Park. I am retired and live on South Manor Road. My backyard faces Bryan Park across the street. On days when the weather is nice, I enjoy sitting on my deck in the morning, drinking coffee and bird watching, usually between 7:30 and 8:30. Many (most) mornings the gentleman who mows the park is on his riding mower and mowing along either side of Woodlawn, starting as early as 7am. Yesterday it was 7:30, this morning it was 7:45. It's loud and disruptive; this morning the cat panicked and ran inside! Is it necessary to mow near houses so early in the morning? Could it be suggested to the gentleman to mow the interior of the park that early? Thanks for considering, Rich

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.

It would be great if the Bryan Park loop and the winslow park loop had spray painted markings of 0m/Start, 200m, 400m, 800m, 1600m and possibly 1k, 2k, or 3k. This would be helpful for walkers and runners to encourage them to set goals. I see community members running these circuits b/c the High school track are not open to the public.
