Tent in wilderness by basketball courts
There is a green/gray tent up towards the hill on the northwest interior of the Winslow Woods Nature park. Up a steep hill after crossing the small "river", halfway through the loop where the trail splits in 2. Smelled smoke nearby and noticed it the past few times I been up there.
People are living in the park again. There is a tent like structure blocking the stairs.
A large, event-sized tent with fully closed sides is setup in Seminary Park.
There is a tent erected in Seminary Square Park. Someone appears to be living in it. Worst government in 50 years. Why do you pass these ordinances if you don’t plan to enforce.
There appears to be a tent erected on the foundation of the old shelter house that was torn down at RCA Park. You might want to have security take the time to walk back there.
Yesterday while hiking in the woods at RCA Park with my grandchildren There was a tent pitched back in the woods. Today in the same place the tent was gone but belongings including a backpack and shirt were there. There was also evidence of a campfire. A live tree had suffered damage from the fire. Please check into this. It is just off a major dirt path and visible from the path. Leaving their stuff there suggests they might return. I let BPD know. I am attaching photos here.
There is a tent pitched along the woods trail at TCA Park in the woods.This is not safe, hygienic, or fair to park users. Please, do something about this. Your park security is useless. They do not patrol the trails. Please do something about this. Worse city government in 50 years. Do you jobs that we are paying you to do. RCA should not become another Seminary or mimic what goes on behind Community Auto. I do not feel safe taking kids in the woods anymore. Camping is prohibited here. Enforce the law!
Seminary Square Park, there is a big tent-like structure covered with a blue tarp. Does not look like it was erected this morning. Soon there might be more. Is the No-tents-in-parks during the night ordinance being enforced?
