Southeast Park near the shelter parking lot

- 7/10/2025
I am a Park Department volunteer and have adopted Southeast Park. Following the last storm in June, I checked the park for downed limbs and branches. I found the majority of storm-debris east of the paved path and picked the debris up and then moved the material to the tree line slope east of the parking lot. A few days later I observed a large pile of tree and brush within the park edge adjacent to the park shelter parking lot. I thought this pile was suspecious and today while I took apicture of the pile. As I was leaving the park a Park Department worker drove up and I asked him if the pile was made by park staff. He said he was unaware and was going to take a picture. When I got home I reported it to one of the park department staff involved with the volunteer program. I have emailed my picture to her. In many of the parks, including Southeast Park we have encountered park neighbors dumping their yard waste onto park property.
