During rain, the surrounding mud and grime around the skatepark at the new Switchyard park drains into the park itself since there is no finished edgings. I don't know what sort of timeline the construction crews have on getting to this, but I just wanted to point out how bad it gets. Some friends had to get wet and dirty in order to unclog one of the drains and get the water out from the park. We had to get our own brooms out to clean this up later on after it had dried.
I understand it's cold season and there may not be anything to be done, but I feel like it needs pointed out. The skatepark itself is wonderful, but the work around it has been poorly taken care of.
Pictures of the area that pools and how mud ends up draining into the park from two spots on the north side of the skatepark are in this shared album.

Can we get a trashcan at Switchyard skate park? One was 'brought in' on opening day and has since been filled up and removed. It doesn't take but a day or two before things start piling up. Thanks!

I tried opening a ticket a few days ago about the need for a trashcan at the Switchyard Skate Park, but I apparently should not have put it under the ticket that relates to trash, as it simply got redirected to three different people and was then responded with a generic HAND response. This is city property. There is already trash beginning to pile up, and a lot of it is blowing around the construction. Please bring in a trash can. I would likely also be the one who will walk around and pick up the trash to put it in the bin.

Hi! I am concerned that the fencing going up around the dog park areas of the Switchyard Park has not been done right. The soil has not been backfilled around the post bases, and the fencing and sod are being finished anyway, leaving extremely large gaps under the fencing--large enough for my 40-lb beagle mix to fit under, as well as many other dogs. Just wanted to make sure those in charge know. I know it is a very large-scale project with many details to keep up with, but it seems much easier and more cost-effective for it to be fixed sooner (while dirt and equipment are still on site) than later (when the park is completely finished and people start losing their dogs under the fence). Thank you for your attention on this matter! Otherwise I am so excited about the park and it is looking great!

I paid a fine. I was just recently put on massive prednisone because of allergies and high doses cause cognitive issues. Hence I forgot to pay the meter. The prednisone is to keep me from strangling to death. I’ll make sure to stay away from downtown and all businesses from now on. Amazon is the safer option for people with disabilities.

In the Spring someone from my office could never find someone in the Morton parking garage so that she could buy the $40 parking pass. Now i am having difficulty contacting someone during business hours for the same reason. I have left 2 messages and continue to try and no one answers the phone. Who else can i call or email? My phone calls have gone unanswered. thank you, Britt Rust

I live at 5838 W Waterstone Trace and there is a drainage grate right in front of my driveway. The grate is falling thru. I had someone reset it but it might need to have the opening it sits in repaired.
