Gate at the baby playground is broken
Gate at the baby playground is broken
I took my 3 year old son to Bryan Park yesterday and a man had a dog with him that was poorly restrained (on a 25 foot cable). My son was running towards the toddler playground when the dog ran after him and knocked him down. The dog was on top of my child for several seconds and while the dog didn't harm my son, it was a very frightening experience for him. I don't want him to be afraid of dogs, and I've been trying to teach him to appreciate animal companionship. I don't know what the rules are for leashes in Bryan Park, but dogs need to be handled better, especially near or around the kids' playgrounds. I didn't get the man's name or information but I took a picture. He was walking on a bright orange tightrope and he had a white dog (young, probably a puppy - this is the one that chased my son) and a black dog.
Huge cracks in the flooring. Saw a couple kids eat it pretty bad trying to run around
This signpost with info, I think, about the dino bench, has been in this vandalized state for months, maybe a year or more. I would suggest fixing it. If the risk of vandalism makes that not worth doing, maybe remove the whole things. Thanks!
The swings need some WD-40. They were Squeeking so loud I could hardly hear the Sunday Summer Concert Series. Please fix.
You should put yellow tape around basketball courts so the bigger kids will understand social distancing etc. I walked past Bryan park courts there were 15 or so people playing basketball I doubt if they were all related
The grass in northern part of Bryan park appears to be wet. I saw water coming out of the ground near the basketball court. There are puddles in some places and in most places the grass is just soaking wet. Since there is no active rain, I thought that amount of water is unuy. And the water coming out of the ground could indicate a water leak. I attached a picture of the hole I saw. There is water coming out of it. But I couldn't attach a video from it here.
It seems like every trail at Bryan Park that is near a tree or a bush needs to be trimmed. The trail that goes through the middle of the park and the section of trail on the north side of the tennis courts are the worst. You have to duck and dodge to get around. Bushes and trees or encroaching on the trail from the sides and then tree branches are hanging down creating hazards to hit your head on whether you're walking or biking. The parks department needs to go around the entire park and trim everything. It's a mess.
Be hazard for pubic there anything park staff can do clean this up
Tents have been spotted in the woods along the creek north of the solar panels. Take the trail north and cross creek to find. not sure if just camping or experiencing homelessness but i think is against the rules.
