A question about memorial trees. I just noticed this London plane tree planted not far from the stump of a sycamore. I am curious why a non-native tree was chosen, instead of a native sycamore. I urge you to plant native trees in our park and tree plots, for various reasons including avoiding a repeat of those Callery pears,adjacent to the tennis courts, planted and then cut down later when we learned better. There are so many Callery trees along the B-Line that, I assume, will have to be cut down and replaced

Flag football parents driving into the fields and parking on the grass in the middle of the field so they don’t have to walk from the parking lots. They seem to be taking advantage of no parking enforcement on the weekends. 10/13/24 around 12:30.

At switchyard dog park in the large dog area, there is a huge pool of muddy water. It looks like when they fixed the puddle the other month, it just moved the problem to a different spot and is now even worse. Where the pipe drains out, it has created a large pool of muddy water that dogs lay in, eat, and drink. This is a health hazard for the dogs, and they seem to be drawn to the mud because of the heat. I ask that this hole be filled, and that the pipe extends to a location that does not flood the dog park to avoid this issue from continuing to happen.

I wanted to have a meet up with some parents and their children at the park so went to scope it out around 5pm on a Friday afternoon and there were at least eight adults with lots of stuff hanging out and 2 out of 3 restrooms were locked. I know that a public park is for everyone, so I'm talking about of both sides of my mouth, but I didn't feel comfortable and didn't want to have my kids two year old birthday party at the trades park. Seems like a good place to put some more houses, since the park can't be used by everyone. In theory I like the picnic shelters being by the playground so I can sit and eat and watch my kids, but I think I prefer Butler Park while if there are transients who come off the railroad track they aren't at the playground.

Switchyard Park - at the kids playground, the large black swings at the south end are really squeaky. Can someone go over there with a ladder and a can of WD-40 or other lubricant and see if that helps quiet the swings? Thanks.

Switchyard Park playground, there's a patch of the play surface that's ripped and sinking in. My friend's kid stepped in that spot while running to play and it tripped her. If you are at the large black swings on the south end of the playground, walk north from the right and middle swings, going between the two orange swing structures north of the black swings, and you'll trip over it too.
