Description

See above:
The dog run in this park needs to have the surface “tilled”. The drainage is very poor resulting in pools of water that remain for several days after a good rain (and there have been several good rains this summer).
As a result, there is green slime/fungus or something all over the surface. The pools of water also serve as a breeding ground for mosquitos.
When the city tiled up the surface, the drainage improves for a month or so. I think there needs to be a more frequent schedule for maintaing the dog run or consider a different drainage system/surface.
Thanks for your prompt attention to this matter.
