The tree plot has rock all over. Per parks code about maintaining this tree plot, isn’t this supposed to be grass? Can you please resolve this so further damage is not potentially caused to the tree roots? Hope to see more green in these little urban patches throughout the city
Median on W 3rd street, normally beautiful and well maintained, currently overgrown and crowded with weeds.
Dead tree leaning over road
Trees in right of way have been tagged for removal on S High between Arden and Wimbleton for recreational trail project. Will debris be removed from this? When Duke contractors trimmed trees on opposite side of street they left behind an awful mess.
The two large limestone stones at the entrance to the Jackson Creek trail are being damaged. It started with the rock breaking off, but this morning the pieces had been used to scrawl names and words on the stones.
Love all the improvements in the park! Great job. Would be nice to eliminate the spotlights shining on the red art structure in the park. The lights are on very early in the morning and in my opinion detract from early morning “vibe” in the park. Why do you need art illuminated in the park at 6:00? Who is looking at the art during that hour? Does it need to be illuminated at all? Again love the parks and all the team does to make our parks a shining spot of Btown!
Two issues that do not reflect well on the park: the sign about native plants in a mulched bed that contains mostly weeds. (This is curly dock.) And the starlings that are nesting in the tip of the roof over the picnic tables and leaving droppings. Please do not disturb the barn swallow nest in the back corner. They are neither noisy nor messy.
On the trail that connects Olcott Park with the Sherwood Oaks Park and the Goat Farm, the lights along the trail stay on all day. In the past, they would turn off when it was bright and sunny out, but not any more. This has been occurring for the last few weeks. It seems like a waste of energy. Thanks!
The bench swings at switchyad park need a good greasing. Squeaking very loud.
