Parks in Tough Times

Article Contributed on: 9/30/2009 9:45:12 AM

In these tough times for government, it is a credit to the City that it continue to devote resources and attention to parks.

Northglenners need to understand that we can help use parks gently and wisely. The City of Northglenn is outstanding in terms of providing parks and open-space, that serve many diverse interests, from children to seniors, from softball players to ruggers, swimmers to dog owners at different city parks.

The city is to be commended for its broad and diverse parks system; and a little rain never hurts.

When the Commissioner of the village went to visit the brook, he was dismayed to see it emanating from a pipe. He protested that it was really a sewer. “Oh, it just goes to show you can’t judge a brook by its cover.”

“People tend to sit where there are places to sit. The most attractive fountains, the most striking designs, cannot induce people to come and sit if there is no place to sit. Ideally, sitting should be physically comfortable - benches with backrests, contoured chairs and must be SOCIALLY COMFORTABLE.”

“By experimenting with simple visible, temporary actions like painting pedestrian lines in the street, we are able to show the city how larger investment can pay off.”
