Let’s consider cameras in our parks

While on my twice daily walk with my dogs at Roegner Park, I observed once again the tracks of a vehicle running on the walking paths, grass, gravel, etc.

This destruction of our beautiful parks, as well as graffiti, is an example of how some of our citizens do not honor the taxpayers who pay for these parks, those of us who use our parks and those of use who work hard keeping our parks up to a high standard.

How about putting cameras up to deter and catch these ungrateful punks?

For seven years, I have walked this park while picking up the poop of other dogs, cigarette butts, cans, clothes, etc., debris that others leave behind.

We take pride in our parks and keep them clean and attractive for all of us.

And yes, if we don’t spend money on vandalism, maybe we can put it toward our streets and traffic issues. It’s long overdue.
