Caller is concerned about the number of trees @ Cascades Golf Course and @ Winslow Sports Complex (north and south of ball diamond) that are infested with bag worms. She is worried that it may be too late to save the trees and it may be too late to spray.

Comment/suggestion re: People's Park. Saw article in the HT about improvements. Would like to add a suggestion that the wall be removed. It attracts people to sit on it and attracts walkers-by to converse w/those sitting on it and blocks pedestrian traffic on sidewalk. In addition, it is dingy and unattractive. She applauds the Dept for its initiative to improve the park.
Temporary Signage w/o permit

Ms. Edmonds called in, b/c there is a red reflector sign at the North end of Wilton Drive that was knocked over by a City recycling truck a year ago, and it now leans over with growth completely covering it. Because it's completely obscured, she feels it doesn't work like it's supposed to to keep people from going past that point. She would like to see the sign put back up where it belongs, and the growth cut down and cleared away.

Caller is outraged that the program @ the Banneker Center has been eliminated. His child, Rory, cried when he was told the news. Doesn't feel that this was discussed w/user group. Child is in 3rd grade @ Fairview. Father will be contacting his Council rep. Feels this was very irresponsible.

Disappointed that after school programs for her son, age 2 and daughter, age 6, @ the Banneker Center will be discontinued this fall. She spoke with Sherry Franklin, who was very nice and explained the situation -- giving her other possible resources. She now feels unwelcomed in the "community center" and fears programming will be geared only to older children in the future.

Mr. Crowe said he called 1 yr. ago in Oct. to Mayor's ofc., & 3 times since w/ NO response. This is regarding how dangerous it is for cyclists, joggers/walkers to use N. Dunn St. b/c Griffy Lake is "devouring" East side of Dunn. Also, brush along N. Dunn is literally hanging into road causing problems for motorists, as well as people. Brush scratches car, forced into oncoming lane to avoid people or brush - at this point feels city is liable if accidents of any kind occur. WANTS RESPONSE!
