Description

First I'd like to thank all the people from your department who I see cleaning up Pioneer park on a regular basis. Yesterday I took my 2 1/2 year grandson to the play ground. There was an empty cardboard food container on top of one area. On one sliding board was what appeared to be the contents of said food container, possibly regurgitated. I was noticing flies on the bridge that leads from one slide to another as well as on the mulch below . Being unable to see, I finally climbed up and noticed what appeared to be melting fecal matter dripping through the slots. I am so glad my grandson is unable to fully tell a story or my son and daughter in law, who live in East Bradenton, would ask me never to take him to the park again. In general the last few days, there has been more litter. Do not know if it is in your jurisdiction but when will the stream and banks of the same be cleaned up? It is disgusting to see (on the banks and in the water) plastic bags, food containers, whiskey bottles, etc.( even a sanitary napkin one time). Thank you for your concern and, I'm certain, the rectification of the unacceptable condition of this beautiful park and playground equipment. We are grateful for it.
