Another dog owner showed me where there are some small gaps in the fencing that could use some repair or extra reinforcing where a smaller dog or animal could get in or out. These gaps are straight back from the red fire hydrant.
Overhanging bushes make travel difficult, and even dangerous at night for bikers and runners. Beware the poison hemlock on the west end of the eastern part of the trail, just near the swimming pool. Sap can cause skin irriation.
The water fountain on the west side of the park runs continuously and has for weeks since they turned it on. It needs to be fixed.
Trash and abandoned personal possessions all around seminary park including sculpture at 2nd and college.
Where did all the shade go? Happy Summer Solstice! We thought Townies needed more sun in their lives so we removed all the shade sails at all the parks and ball fields. Thanks for looking out for us parks!
Just wondering if there is actually an Erin Hatch that works for the city?? I noticed including my ureports that were assigned to her way over a month ago about city tree trimming has not been addressed. So I'm not sure if she doesn't work for the city and it's not being assigned to no one. Or someone isn't really doing their job. Thanks for your time.
Seminary parks is full of trash, abandoned personal possessions, and stolen shopping carts from local merchants. This area has progressively went downhill in the last months. Needs cleaned up and monitored mutiple times daily. People using park are breaking multiple laws every day. (Drug and alcohol use in public, public nuisance, fighting, littering, stolen property, camping and staying there after hrs, etc)
Many of the newly planted oak trees are showing signs of stress as the leaves are yellowing and browning. Will the City water these trees during this dry time? Several people are trying to water them with buckets, but it seems that there would be a better way to keep these trees healthy after investing so much in planting them.
The tree branches on the trail between Olcott Park and the Goat Farm need to be cut back. This is mostly needed at the beginning of the trail on the trailhead on the Olcott Park side. Thank You for your consideration!
The drainage issue near the water station is getting swampy in the big dog area. Removal of the plastic pools may help until the standing water can be renediated.
