Items Left at Parks

To keep our parks safe, accessible, and enjoyable for everyone, residents are reminded that leaving chairs, umbrellas, toys, or other personal belongings in the park for ongoing use is not permitted. Items left unattended can block access, create safety hazards, and interfere with park maintenance. Please refrain from placing or leaving personal property in the park. Any unattended items may be removed without prior notice. Thank you for helping us keep our community spaces clean, safe, and welcoming for all!
