<br />Individual Park Reports <br /> <br />Ruth Park Golf Course <br /> <br /> – drinking fountain water line still needs to be repaired cups and water <br />are being provided. Comments made about kids and non-golfers on field suggest signs labeling <br />safe areas be posted so injuries are prevented. No sprinkler on driving range but it will be <br />maintained regularly per Nancy. <br /> <br />Millar <br /> <br /> – Trash away from pavilions not being emptied so animals are dragging trash into park. <br /> <br />Rabe and Ackert <br /> <br />- no problems <br /> <br />Kaufman <br /> <br />– No problems. <br /> <br />Mona Terrace <br /> <br />- erosion at fence but park is in good condition despite flood. FEMA to pay for <br />erosion at fence if approved. <br /> <br />Mooney <br /> <br />- Bare dirt showing, mulch needed at playground. <br /> <br />Heman Park <br /> <br />- New sewers run for restrooms, top parking lot now has holes. Trash was found <br />overflowing and trash is ending up on courts and surrounding area, assumed it was due to a <br />tournament. Suggests larger cans at top of courts to prevent this.
