Major issues This is a regional park but no clear sidewalks to access it from neighborhoods <br />and nearby Long Lake supportive businesses. Also kids need safer walkways from the Orono <br />schools. Extend a safe sidewalk from sidewalk that is already part way from the area with gas <br />station, McDonalds and now new ice cream shop. Clearly identify and protect a bike trail. <br />Also the regional park will have greater attendance and the speed limit should be 20mph with <br />a warning light. It now changes to 40 mph which says wow speed up you are passing a park. <br />Do not wait until an accident happens to make connecting sidewalks ,bike trails, and speed <br />limit changes. A crosswalk maybe . Safety should be the number one priority . <br />We would also support a reduced speed limit near the park. We would also love to see a bike <br />path/sidewalk on Willow for kids to safely ride bikes to the park! <br />It would be wonderful to add a splash pad in the area where the former house used to be as <br />water is already piped in. That area would also be close to the playground and restrooms in <br />this plan. The parking lot could be reduced by a small amount to accommodate a splash pad <br />and there would still be plenty of parking for the park. <br />20 <br />
