I think the parks dept. has done a great job on our parks and they should open plenty more ,(I’ve always wondered why there are more playgrounds in the non frum areas)the children need them and if people stop complaining and use common sense maybe it will happen ..keep complaining,,and they will close them all down

Dear Mrs. Levin,

Finally a comment worth reading.
Of course a child should never got barefoot in a public place, mat or no mat.

Hello!! The kid was BAREFOOT!! What kind of meshugina mother would let her kids play around on the monkey bars, the swings, or the slides (all metal and MUCH hotter) without shoes or sneakers??!

That being said, we all grew up with the same mats and although they were a bit on the warm side (I was wearing something on my feet!) they did protect us when falling.

An emergency task force to take 90 days to find out what they already know?

Hearings shmearings. Close those parks down as if they were being run by private enterprises. In such cases, city inspectors would have them closed in one day.

why waste money on hearings? they held hearings last year and did nothing and will hold more this year and do nothing. stop holding hearings and do something productive OR next year you will be holding hearings again along with more hearings to find out why hearings do not produce anything except lunch and dinner for the attendees.
