When is the water going to be turned back on at the Ferguson dog park?
When is the water going to be turned back on at the Ferguson dog park?
The small karst feature (sinkhole) on the northeast side of Weimer Lake (in Wapehani Park) has greatly increased in size and depth over the last several months, and the lake is draining away! The water level has dropped by a few feet, and the lake surface has shrunk by half. The city already lost one reservoir this way in the 1940s (the one in Leonard Springs Park); would not it be a shame to lose another one? Is there a way to plug the hole (dumping a truckload of gravel and cement into it, perhaps?) before the entire lake flows aways? The picture shows the lake and the sinhole as of a week or so ago; since then, the water level dropped another foot or two, as the sinkhole's draining point is now much deeper than it was back then. And there seems to be more space for further drop...
The water fountain on the far side of the big Cascades playground is leaking badly.
The water fountain by the bathrooms at lower Cascades is leaking from inside the water fountain. It's a pretty good flow.
one of the water fountains by the playground has a constant leak
Switchyard Large Dog Park - water/mud problem. The main large tree in the center of the Large Dog Park is a pit of mud. Would really appreciate it being covered with sod to prevent muddy dogs!
The water fountain does not function.
The safety rail overlooking the water on the north side of Miller Showers is missing on a few feet of the railings. It's the north side by the 2 concrete face statues. This is a safety hazard and a child or dog could easily fall through.
Dog water fountain water pressure is too low, and the base of the water fountain leaks. This is a along the clear Creek trail between Rockport and that Rd.
The drinking fountain by the playground in Southeast park seems not to drain properly - all the water pours out underneath the bowl.
