COMMISSIONER PARK REPORTS <br />Meyers noted the Commissioners have submitted updates on their parks to Edwards. <br />Edwards stated he appreciates receiving the action items by e-mail. Edwards indicated the majority of <br />those items have already been taken care of. <br />Berg stated the road at Lydiard Beach washed out a little bit. <br />Edwards indicated the Public Works Department will be back down there to re -grade it. <br />Lindahl stated there are a couple of picnic benches at Crystal Bay that are deteriorated and are likely <br />unsafe. Lindahl asked if that would be a work order. <br />Meyers stated in his view all the wooden benches should be removed. <br />Edwards requested the Commissioners notify him if they see something unsafe. <br />Brenda Johnson stated there were a large number of thistles at Seven Nations Park and that it is very <br />difficult to walk through there. <br />Edwards indicated the Public Works Department now has a weed inspector and that he will be inspecting <br />that park and identifying the weeds. Edwards stated if it becomes a bigger job than what the Public <br />Works Department can handle, they will need to look at hiring an outside contractor to perform the work. <br />Meyers suggested articles on various weeds also be included in the City newsletter. <br />Bederwood Park <br />Page 11 of 13 <br />
