Park Furniture Repair
Request to Tino DeCastro, Recreation supervisor, April 27, 2006
Tino, here is the park bench and picnic table need-of-repair inventory: The park has:
Benches = 49
Tables = 45
All are heavily used. The number needing serious repair are (see examples below)-
Benches =18
Tables = 25
Could you ask maintenance to give us an idea of repair timing? If there is no budget, please let us know so we can put out a call for another community maintenance bee.
Response from Jutta Mason, May 1, 2006
Tino, the park maintenance crew did a lot of work on the tables and benches last Friday. Please let them know we appreciate their quick response to this request.
Response from Recreation supervisor, May 2, 2006
The Parks staff have not finished and will be doing more, but we did take care of the worst ones first.
Update, July 30, 2006
There are now 56 benches in the park (more than before), of which 8 need new slats.
There are 38 picnic tables, of which one is in bad shape. 7 picnic tables have not been returned from repair. There is often a lineup for picnic tables, so the staff keep a flat cart near the rink house, that people can use to move tables from the oven area (and back again).
