Who recently put masking tapes on the tennis court (for other sports?)? Is this allowed? It could trip people playing on the court.

Hi, I was with my daughter at the Southeast Park playground today and noticed an unusual plant near the swings and hobby horses with a tiny tomato-like fruit. My plant app identified it as Carolina horse nettle, which is a member of the nightshade family and is poisonous. I pulled and discarded all the plants I saw in the area with berries, but I am concerned that this plant is present on a playground and wanted to alert you. The berries look a lot like tiny tomatoes or globe eggplant and would appear edible to many. Thanks for your time!
The park courts need new rims they are broken. They need new nets and the backboards need repainted.

Seminary park has several shopping carts there that have been stolen by the homeless. Can’t they be returned to their rightful owner bc they set fire to them again?!?!
The pickle pole boxes combination lock won't open all the way. It looks like people have been trying to break into the box because the lids kind of off and it'll only open 3/4 of the way but you can't get to the nets.
Abandoned trash and shopping cart at seminary square

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
While visiting Bryan Park on 8/9, I observed mowing with a gas engine lawn mower of grass already at a very low height. Greenhouse gas emissions are a concern from unnecessary mowing, and the area being mowed was very large. For a city with a sustainability office, one would expect either the use of electric lawn equipment and/or mowing only when necessary. Please consider training staff to mow using environmentally friendly practices.
