However I have some additional suggestions and comments that I would hope you consider before the next meeting on February 2, 2017. 1.I would like to point out that Triunfo Park is a Community Park, where children and adults go every day. The park is suppose to have grass & trees, eating areas, playground area,tennis courts, baseball, cricket, badminton,freebies, la cross, volley, ball, basket ball,soccer, football,bicycling, etc. Grass needs to be next to the trees so there is shade and you can sit, play, read, exercise, etc, YOU CAN'T SIT ON WOOD CHIPS, BUSHES, MULCH and ROCKS. 2. The park should not be an obstacle course, having wood chips, bushes, mulch & large dangerous rocks that eliminate water from the trees. These large rocks are an attraction to the children, and it's a accident waiting to happen. where they will slip and fall. ( a premises liability) 3. According to the information you gave us, we were advised that only the eating and play area with the equipment near the restrooms needed to have 12 feet away from grass watered by the reclaims water. So please put back the grass beyond the 12 feet. (ti's currently 20 to 30 feet) 4. The entrance to the park on Tamarack Street and all along that street is heavily used by children and adults on both sides for workouts, playing games and taking chairs and relaxing on both sides of the parking lot. There are all the trees there for shade. Please put back the grass along the street and the entrance and going back to the baseball area where the teams play too. Please remove the dangerous rocks and put the grass back' 5. At the corner of Tamarack and Triunfo Cyn is where the bus picks up the children and drops them off from school. The children use that area to sit and do there homework and play. The bicyclist uses that area for water andstop area. Please put back the grass there too. Please take out the rocks 6. I understand you are going to have drains in the middle of the park. You can put in finger spray sprinklers so the water doesn't go in there and maybe just put in about 2 feet of mulch around them. Please put back the grass under the trees like to was before throughout the park and the back parking lot area. We utilize the park. Remove the large rocks there too. 7. Please allow the grass to be put back on Aramoor Street and at the back of park next to the parking lot and behind the tennis courts.. S. If you will buy the Bio Char( organic and natural pellets) before you place the grass back under the ground, it will absorb the water and retain it so there will be a 20 to 25 per
