We live at Maxwell Lane and Stull, and take our dog out in the early morning to Bryan park each day. For the past couple of weeks, we have seen the same person in the North shelter in the very early morning, and it appears they are sleeping there. This makes us feel very uncomfortable, and we believe it is against the law. In addition, yesterday, my husband witnessed a marijuana drug deal happening in that same north shelter in the broad daylight, before the two men got into cars parked in that park parking lot (at the end of Stull). Please have police monitor this area more, and go to the North shelter in the early morning to see this person appearing to sleep here.
Dead rabbit carcass 9th st park. Between basketball court and ball field, near dog cleanup station.
On the evening of Tuesday, May 24, I was at Ferguson Dog Park with my leashed dog, Duke, and my friend had her dog (also on a leash). As soon as we entered the park another dog immediately became aggressive and repeatedly attempted to bite my dog and my friend's dog. At one point this dog had one of our dogs on the ground, on top of it. The owner very casually and unconcerned strolled over and grabbed his dog and said, "Now don't do that." This dog continued to be aggressive to other dogs present, even biting and drawing blood on another dog. It was that altercation where other people had to separate the dogs because the owner just sat there and finally got up to get his aggressive dog. The owner did nothing to stop his dog from this atrocious behavior. This owner and his dog are a liability and god forbid a child or any human gets bitten by this dog. I do not have a name or license plate number because I did not feel i could safely obtain that information. I do have a picture of the man and woman and dog.
I am concerned about the health of the large old sycamore tree in Rev. Butler Park, at the intersection of W. 9th and N. Maple Streets. This magnificent tree, known locally as "the 9th Street Sycamore," is losing its new leaves, which lie shriveled in the streets and gutters around the intersection. The leaves that are still on the tree appear pale, small, and weak/limp, ready to fall shortly themselves. I live across from this tree and have NEVER seen it look unhealthy until this season. Please have a specialist evaluate this important landmark.
The dog portion of this drinking fountain is not working. Just wanted to let you know!
There is a lighter and a marijuana pipe under the slide area on the ground at the older kids playground
The water fountain by the bathrooms at lower Cascades is leaking from inside the water fountain. It's a pretty good flow.
Water fountain near tennis courts is off please turn on
The small karst feature (sinkhole) on the northeast side of Weimer Lake (in Wapehani Park) has greatly increased in size and depth over the last several months, and the lake is draining away! The water level has dropped by a few feet, and the lake surface has shrunk by half. The city already lost one reservoir this way in the 1940s (the one in Leonard Springs Park); would not it be a shame to lose another one? Is there a way to plug the hole (dumping a truckload of gravel and cement into it, perhaps?) before the entire lake flows aways? The picture shows the lake and the sinhole as of a week or so ago; since then, the water level dropped another foot or two, as the sinkhole's draining point is now much deeper than it was back then. And there seems to be more space for further drop...
