The gravel/cinder trail between the parking lot and the large shelter is now a flowing stream. There's a waterfall on the hill/cliff that normally turns and flows parallel to and then under the trail, but has overflowed its banks at the spot where it turns. It's eroded part of the trail all the way to the parking lot (stopped by the paved pedestrian "lobby", where it is pooling). Not a disaster, but it does push pedestrians onto the grass. Wanted to make sure you were aware. Thanks for all you do to keep our parks in such great shape overall!

Sherwood Oaks park - there is a hole in the asphalt on the drive into the park. It looks deep and it’s big enough that a person’s foot could get stuck in it. Not to be dramatic, but when I saw it, I thought it might be the start of a sinkhole.

I was at switchyard park playing pickleball with a my children, ages 4 and 7, on Friday evening. Those experiencing homelessness were congregated on the north benches. Hot coffee carafes had been put out, and a constant strong smell of tobacco smoke was present. The smoke smell was overpowering and caused us to leave the park.

About .5 mile into the rail trail is a large homeless camp (off Country Club) from the entrance. The sites continue to grow & pop up. There are multiple concerns with this. 1. Contamination with the water by litter, human waste, & drug paraphernalia. 2. Affects to wild life through trash & humans inhabiting their homes. 3. Land is affected by litter & drug paraphernalia such as glass pipes & needles. 4. There are safety concerns with children playing in the creek due to human waste & drug paraphernalia being in the water, they could get diseases from contaminated needles or step on glass pipes. 5. This is a dangerous location for the homeless as they are in a flash flood location. It has completely flooded out on 2020 & 2019. 6. Safety concerns with those using the trail or those who live in the neighborhood on the other side. One of our tenants contacted the police for fear of someone being outside of his home in the middle of the night. We have also noticed foot prints being outside the windows when there was snow on the ground. We can send additional photos it needed & have also reported to Rebecca Swift. I do believe others in the community are noticing & possibly reporting. Thanks Danny & Zella Taylor
