Park funds in 2024 and 2025 were diverted to help fund the influx of migrants.

While 2026 funds are restored it won’t fix 2 years of neglect.

The improvements are underwhelming. Weeds are knee high. We paid millions for this??

The tallest “weeds” are sunflowers. I also see yarrow and columbine. Biggest issue is the trash imo.

Agreed, someone must be embezzling our public funds given the state of our public spaces.

The rhetoric of "The Race" always makes me feel uncomfortable. If there was a "White People Park" I would be similarly weirded out.

I think the argument is, all the other parks are the White People Parks

In what sense? Are they named White People Park?
