Sometime last weekend someone threw the cones that are on the High Street sidepath, where the guy wires for the telephone pole extend into the path, over the fence. A couple of them have been retrieved, but others are on private property. The cones need to be set back up. Better yet, the guy wire situation should be taken care of.
We have been having gastrointestinal issues for the past 2.5 weeks and want the water to be tested for coliform.
Near the sidewalk toward the parking lot (where it rounds to drive back around), there is a large hole that is difficult to see. Last evening, I stepped in it and rolled my ankle. I wanted to share so no one else gets hurt. I am happy to help locate it with photos are meeting someone there. I didn't have a chance to take a photo as I could barely walk and wasn't focused on the safety thoughts in the future.
I'd like for the water to be tested for giardia and cryptosporidium. I sent in a report weeks ago that was not resolved.
Early in the mornings, when driving on 3rd Street at the High St. intersection, the light is usually red for 3rd St. traffic. When it turns green, it only remains green for about 12 seconds, so I end up having to stop and wait there every day even when there is no traffic on High St. The way the timers are set now, the green remains on longer for High St. even when there are no cars there but remains green for 3rd St. traffic for only about a dozen seconds before turning yellow and then red, so we're forced to stop almost every day even though heavier traffic goes through 3rd St.! I ask that the time for green for 3rd St. traffic be made longer, say at least 30 seconds for 3rd St., or better yet, kept green unless a car shows up on High St. The way it is right now, it's as if more traffic is supposed to go through High St. when the opposite is true. This is causing wasted time each day, which adds up to quite a lot in the long run, so I ask that the green timer for 3rd St. traffic be extended or made to remain green as the default because the reverse is happening right now!! Many thanks!
One way/no left turn markings going West are not adequate. Have seen several people make a left turn onto the one way street.
Hi, I was with my daughter at the Southeast Park playground today and noticed an unusual plant near the swings and hobby horses with a tiny tomato-like fruit. My plant app identified it as Carolina horse nettle, which is a member of the nightshade family and is poisonous. I pulled and discarded all the plants I saw in the area with berries, but I am concerned that this plant is present on a playground and wanted to alert you. The berries look a lot like tiny tomatoes or globe eggplant and would appear edible to many. Thanks for your time!
I would like to suggest adding more no-mow areas to Bryan Park, specifically around all trees (to protect them), along the North boundary (several feet in depth) and extending the no-mow area along the creek tributary which runs North West-South East and feeds into the main creek. It would be very helpful to all wildlife, particularly birds and insects. I'd be happy to talk to someone about this idea. Also reduce the number of times the park is mowed (maybe it could just be every other week?) and stop using leaf blowers!
Trail lights on the hill that connects park with Goat Farm are not working. Or perhaps timer is malfunctioning. Thanks!
