Alderman raises concerns about Mitch Franklin Park bathrooms and park signage; mural artist samples pending
Summary
Alderman Goucher asked that bathroom doors at Mitch Franklin Park remain locked during games, said the park's plexiglass sign was "cloudy and broken," and reported that samples from two artists for a Norman Park mural have not yet been received.
Alderman Goucher raised multiple maintenance and public-art concerns at the June 16 meeting. He said the bathrooms at Mitch Franklin Park were unlocked during ballgames and that the plexiglass sign denoting the park's name was "cloudy and broken." He also asked whether the city had selected an artist for a mural at Norman Park; the City Administrator said samples from both artists have not yet been received.
The remarks were entered into the minutes as requests for follow-up; the minutes do not record a formal directive or vote to repair the sign, change bathroom access procedures, or select an artist. The items are logged as outstanding maintenance and procurement follow-ups for staff to address.
