We formed two weeks <br />ago after listening to the testimony of several mothers whose <br />sons have drowned at these ponds. I was asked to co-chair <br />this group with Shauna Davis whose son and nephew both <br />drowned at the ponds last year. Also present was a mother <br />whose son drowned approximately 15 years ago. I find it <br />appalling that the city has seemingly done nothing to make <br />these ponds safer! There are no "No Swimming" signs, no <br />public education about the dangers of the extremely steep <br />sides under water, no vehicular access (until the end of this <br />summer), to let rescue workers in, no phones in the area... The <br />list is indeed much longer. In 3 meetings we have assembled <br />89 written ideas for this 'park' which many in the neighborhood <br />only know as 'the pits'. Many parents do not even know there <br />is water there. This is inexcusable and unconscionable. <br /> <br />co <br /> <br />4/1412006 <br />
