https://cascadesgolfcourse.org/ Greetings, my son Silas Ellett went to purchase his season pass at Cascades golf course today Sunday April 19. On the website it clearly shows that the 2026 season pass price for 18 and under is $245. However, when he arrived at Cascades today, they told him that that was wrong. I have attached an image file and the URL of the current website. In addition to the misinformation on the website, the personnel at the golf course were very rude. Silas was using his 18th birthday money from his birthday six days ago on April 13 to buy his golf pass for the summer. He was super excited to spend the summer at Cascades. It’s such a wonderful resource that the city provides. Our family is very disappointed by this news. I think a reasonable accommodation is to give him the $245 pass because it was posted on your website and that was a planned activity that he had for today using his birthday money. Thank you for attending to this matter. We would really like to hear from the city about this. Jodee

There is a significant shortage of pickleball courts in the city, which has led to consistently overcrowded conditions at RCA Community Park and Switchyard Park. At the same time, there appears to be an overabundance of tennis courts relative to the number of residents actively participating in pickleball. When Hopewell Commons opened, there was genuine excitement in the community. Unfortunately, that enthusiasm quickly faded. Players have largely avoided these courts due to poor and, frankly, unusable conditions—particularly the net setup and, more importantly, the playing surface. The decision to install perforated tile flooring instead of a standard concrete surface has made the courts impractical for regular play. The ball will bounce at erratic angles and if you try to run the shoes willc catch the cracks between the tiles and cause a fall and injury. The surface quality significantly impacts gameplay and safety, to the point where players would rather wait 30–60 minutes for a court elsewhere than use these brand new establishment. Given the budget allocated for this development, it raises legitimate questions about how funds were spent (please share this), especially considering that the cost and requirements for building a standard, functional pickleball court are well understood. The end result at Hopewell Commons does not align with those expectations, and needs to be replaced by a proper concrete base flooring.

The gasoline powered Gator vehicle used to maintain our trails leaves in its exhaust invisible and toxic engine exhaust fumes. Cyclists, runners and pedestrians are forced to breathe toxic fumes which float under the canopy often long after the vehicle has passed. This is a public health issue that can be eliminated by the use of electric vehicles. Please consider replacing park and trail service vehicles powered by fossil fuels with the type that do not emit noxious fumes along our lovely system of trails.

Waiting until just minutes before rec soccer games to announce field closures is frustrating and avoidable. The weather conditions were clearly visible on radar well in advance, and a decision could have reasonably been made at least 30 minutes earlier. Families plan their schedules around these games getting kids ready, packing up, and traveling only to find out upon arrival that everything has been canceled. This has happened more than once. Please be more proactive with communication moving forward.

This tree has struggle the last few years. This year looks like the bell had tolled or at least in the last throws of life. The tree has also developed a severe lean out over the street. Larger trucks including sanitation and deliver have to dodge this tree. Located west of driveway on the Oliver side of this corner lot.

Transient habitat and bike in RCA Park, 50-100 yards west of the big quarry rock pile, along the fence, where three trails intersect. There is a bunch of trash, a bike, and maybe a shelter. There was screaming and cursing from this area in the park a few days ago.

Hello, I am reporting on behalf of the Park Ridge Neighborhood Association. We've noticed that this tree has a low hanging branch that could pose a safety risk to somebody walking into the park. Would it be possible to get it trimmed? Thank you!

There are two large ground bee nests, both on the north side of the lake. Going from the dam to the boathouse, the first one is about 100 yards past the dam on the left-hand side. The second one is just passed the large bench and the nest is on both sides of the trail there.
