Previous report (185419) says the city returns “abandoned” shopping carts when found. The real issue is the homeless (seminary park) are using these shopping carts and nobody is confronting them about stealing these shopping carts from local merchants. Just today (9/6/23) I saw multiple “city workers” at seminary park while people there had shopping carts full of crap but nobody doing anything about the issue. These are not the property of these people just because they stole them. Merchants aren’t selling these shopping carts. These are obviously stolen and the people need held accountable and the shopping carts returned. Thanks!!!

Vandals are destroying the pine trees next to the beginning of the concrete trail by the playground in RCA park. Would signage more security help. Older kids are not supervised here.

One toilet (the non-handicap stall) in the women’s bathroom at Bryan Park is continuously flushing. Bumping the handle was not enough to un jam it.

There are leaves in Park Ridge Park again. It is a lot less than last time, but still significant. Sanitation still hasn't done the second round of leaf pick up in the area so there is still a chance to easily remove the leaves (and thus help the park in terms of less erosion and mud production). My leaf blower is broken so I do not anticipate being able to take care of it. If possible, it would be great to have one more round of removal now that all of the leaves are finally down. Thanks!

Oclott Park walk path, where it offshoots to Jackson Creek Middle School. There is a constant trickle of water that streams across the path and down the offshoot. On cold days it forms a treacherous layer of ice. Very difficult to cross that area when walking around the park and extremely dangerous for students walking to JCMS. Not sure if it's a natural spring or if the Olcott Building is leaking, but water needs to be diverted from running across the walking path. Someone is going to get hurt.

Splash pads - I think splash pads are a wonderful summer fun activity. I look forward to taking my grandkids to the new switchyard park this summer. However I would love to see more of these around town especially in parks in the poorer parts of town. Like the Reverend Butler Park, Highland village Park, Crestmont Park, Third Street Park. Are there plans to add more splash pads in our parks?

#171036 followup. Thanks! In fact, I didn't realize that most of the work had already been done when I filed that uReport. Not so the saplings under the spruce closest to Henderson on the south side of the asphalt path. I'll check this morning, but until a few days ago there were 2 or 3 bigger than I could get thumb and first finger around.

Followup on 171036 and 171458: that work on cleaning up weeds and saplings under the spruce is not entirely complete. This one, near Henderson, south side of the path, has two saplings.
