Good Morning. I wondering what the process is to have a dog poop refuse trash can and bag dispenser to be installed in the green space outside of Mills Pool. I'm unsure if that is designated an actual park, but there has been an increase in use for various reasons making it seem like a park. I'm hoping to have one receptacle installed just like the one that is located in 9th St. Butler Park. Thank You!

Hello. I am a resident near Olcott Park and have noticed what look like lighting fixtures being installed along the trail from Sherwood Oaks Park to Olcott Park. I'd like to make a case against this, as it is extremely damaging to the small ecosystem the forest has. These lights will cause light pollution in an otherwise rather remote area considering its proximity to the city and will disturb bat populations as well as many other night-active animals that require a dark environment to thrive. The trail and woods are a wonderful place to look at the stars at night and go birdwatching, but these lights will disturb these activities. Many ecological programs/studies that take place will also be impacted: there is an event for owl watching that happens in the summer, and the presence of lights in the otherwise dark forest will disrupt this. People tend to sleep and stay in when it is dark in the first place, the lights are not worth the effort to put them in and the damage they will cause. I personally enjoy going for walks in the dark on summer evenings and watching the lightning bugs, an activity I and many other children enjoyed growing up near the park. Please consider this appeal; I am willing to speak in person if needed. Thank you.

The playground at butler park is rusting and falling apart. It would be great to see some repairs or replacement of that equipment.

This morning at Rev. Butler park the push button of the water fountain by the bathroom was stuck and water had been flowing for what had looked like a long time. I was able to unlodge the button but I'm worried that it could happen again.

Thank you for removing the leaves from Park Ridge Park!!!!!! I am sure that will make an impact next season in terms of making the sloped areas of the park less likely to suffer from erosion over the winter (given the straw mulch and seed put down) and then aid in rejuvenating the grass in those areas, again leading to less erosion, less maintenance, and a better park for the neighborhood and the city! Thanks!!!

Was sitting on bench in Park Ridge East Park the other night at the tennis courts (is on the south side of the courts) and noticed the seat is deteriorating (peeling and rusty; go take a look). As it's the only one there, could you please see to it that it gets replaced? Fixed is fine but doubt it can be fixed. Thank you! It's awesome to have great neighborhood parks in town.

I've noticed the systematic cutting of the wild grape vines throughout the Griffy Nature Preserve. These are native Indiana plants used as food by wildlife, not an alien invasive species. Why are these being cut from the nature preserve? Shouldn't this area be allowed to remain as wild as possible?
