This is a second report about a possibly dangerous tree in Bryan Park. I reported it first after getting reactions from some usually knowledgeable people. Here is a sample. "Textbook example of root rot in an infected ash tree. That tree will fall soon. I've seen many on my property fall when they get to that stage." "VERY precarious, I have had trees fall over that were not that bad." "We just lost a 6yr from Boonville yesterday dead tree uprooted and fell on her. what are the odds of that... she was walking with her Grandma." So it sounds URGENT. Please put some CAUTION tape around it and maybe a sign if an arborist can't assess it immediately.

The park ridge east baseball field is in need of repair. Request the infield be groomed and holes filled in. Water pools at the home plate. The backstop fence also needs to be secured so that balls cannot roll under it and into the street.
Water fountain isn’t on at Park Ridge East Park
Courts frequently full from people outside the neighborhood. Particularly paid coaches giving lessons. If someone wants to make money let them do it in a private court before taking all of the neighborhood courts for hours from local residents. Please change the policy. If already a policy please post it.
