Garbage Pick-Up On City Trails

Idea:

It's great to consider adding new infrastructure, but we should be maintaining the existing trails at a higher standard. I just biked around the 'two bridge' loop and the amount of garbage on the path is phenomenal. Ideally, a thorough pick up would occur in early May before the underbrush has a chance to grow. A lot of trash from the winter has already been temporarily covered up. After that, it could be a student job to do a daily pick on a section of trail at a time.

Staff Feedback:

Thanks for letting us know about this, Ray. Our 2021 summer students just joined our team and one of them is specifically assigned to trails for the very purpose of dealing with garbage on the ground, emptying trash cans and other duties related to general cleanliness. Parks & Trees is aware of your message and they've pledged to deal with that particular section of trail asap.
