Person had reserved Building Trades and Bryan Park shelter houses. She was upset that there was trash everywhere and they had to clean up. They called the number for after hours service and it took way too long for someone to get there. Also, the sign should have been flipped over to show that it had been rented.

Colonel Johnson says the wildflowers north of Miller Showers are too high and people can't see on-coming traffic. He says it is extremely hazardous (wants to make sure you check it from a car). Would like this taken care of.

Mr. Ward called to let us know that on several occasions he has seen folks drive back to the Wapehani Bike Park and dump brush and other debris. He knows what they're doing is illegal but doesn't want to get in trouble trying to catch them! He lives at the corner of Wapehani/Weimer roads and uses the park frequently and wants to see it taken care of.
Also, has some questions about off-roading in the big open field by the park.
Please call him.

Caller reported several people camping out under the shelter at the Building & Trades Park. Suggested an unsafe environment, as one man was "hiding, wearing a heavy parka, with the hood pulled over his eyes." Frustrated as a tax-paying citizen at her perceived lack of safety at a public park.

I believe this is the same caller as Case #155238. Reported homeless men still living under the shelter house at Building and Trades park. One man started to approach the caller at 11a today as soon as the City parks worker left, but then walked away when a driver pulled up to the park. Caller is very frustrated that she can't eat lunch at a city park without feeling scared or accosted. She's requesting extra police patrols at this location.

Caller complained that the playground at Country View is in disrepair: grass growing under the equipment, inadequate equipment, etc. I'm not even sure this is city property -- obviously not a Parks & Rec-maintained park. Also complaints about crumbling sidewalks, unpaved parking lots, etc.
