Washington City Council To Deal With Park Complaints

Washington City Council Department reports included a review of the audit of the city’s expenditures for 2019. Reports also brought about complaints that have been plaguing the Seventh Ward playground. Comments from the public continued about people at the park at all hours of the night, illicit activities and people having parties and leaving their trash. Council authorized the erection of a fence around the property to eliminate access. Council will also be entering a cooperation agreement with The Dreamers Company to enhance and develop the property. The Dreamers Company will also assist in obtaining a grant to help offset the cost of the park’s improvements. Council will formalize the actions at their regular meeting on October 1.
