Description
I was walking East Shore Park yesterday and the grass is totally overgrown. A lot of people utilize that walk and ticks are a problem this year. It also represents the city in a very demeaning way, a small portion is cut, the remainder of the grass is very high. Come on parks and rec, you guys are better than that. It looks disgusting.

Historically the fields at East Shore were used to produce hay for the ship yard where it was used as packing material for goods shipped out of New Haven. This year, these fields will be left for hay as a demonstration of this historic use and to serve as an educational experience for New Haven residents.
A buffer of 8-10 feet will be cut and maintained along all the paths to address these safety concerns.
