Parking lot at TLSP
What can Parks do to help stop the illegal setting off of fireworks on Parks property. This is a violation of State laws and local ordinances. The police come and just tell them to stop and leave. Leaving trash for parks staff to clean up and let alone the fire danger during drier conditions.
The spontaneous truck and sports car meet ups that take place around town and also at Twin Lakes ball field parking lot. There is drinking, underage drinking, and drugs.
They also have been doing donuts and burns in the past which harms the pavement z as no striping. Again the police come and tell them to leave. There have been promoter/ organizers for these “street / parking lot takeovers “Maybe some fines and payment for the damages would help. I know parking lot striping is not cheap. Maybe the City could put ing a street / parking lot take over ordinance similar to Indianapolis. Which has escalating fines for participating and spectators, long payment for damages.
I know for years the parks has let drink beer after ballgames has as an exception to the no alcohol in certain parks rule. Now some of the teams have been smoking pot a long with drinking beer after ballgames and then driving can not be a good thing to have out on the road.
Thanks

Hello, I am writing about the gravel paths along the bline. They are very inconsistent on each side, and this limits how my wife with a disability is able to talk up and down the bline. Because it is designed for 2-way taffic, her mobility issue means she hazards the wrong side of the path to get to the very helpful gravel parts. From country club road to 2nd street (i’m unsure of condition further NW, the paths are inconsistenly maintained and at time neither side is very good. I’ve seen many other people that use those paths and believe it is an accessibility issue. We hope they can be restored to how they once were. Many paths are only a few inches wide and not enough and some have over growth from spring, some seem very wide and well maintained but only on one side. Thank you for your consideration to this message. I’m only marking this as a ‘complaint’ rather than ‘suggestion’ because i believe it to be an accessability issue as previously stated.

Please work Winslow fields so little league can play some games! This weather has been brutal for only being able to play a few games due to rain but when it has been nice out, the fields have not been open due to puddles. If someone would work the fields-the puddles could be spread out and gone!

In the photo you can see the path across the feeder to Sheridan Creek, a bit east of the basketball courts.
THANK YOU for clearing away the fallen top half of a tree that has been blocking the path for month.
(There still needs to be a more permanent solution to crossing the feeder. For another day! But i still urge you to consider a little bridge---the only solution that hasn't been tried in the almost 20 years I have been crossing there)
