<br />To Members of City Council and Mayor Kitty <br />Piercy <br /> <br />Hi my name is Travis Jones. I am a soon to be 8th grade graduate from Prairie <br /> <br />Mountain School, and I am writing to bring to your attention the dangers of Golden <br /> <br />Garden Ponds. As you know 4 people have drown at the Ponds or "The Pitts". The City <br /> <br />should strive to make the Ponds a real park. <br /> <br />To make the ponds safe we should build trails so we can travel on. Trails would <br /> <br />make the ponds more appealing to others. We should also build a path for rescue vehicles <br /> <br />in case somebody were to fall in to the ponds. Also a park for kids to play on and a <br /> <br />swimming pool that would seem safer and better to swim in. Some things that we can do <br /> <br />is to spread the bark, make signs, and to plant trees and plants to make a eye caching <br /> <br />scenery for those visiting the ponds. <br /> <br />You should add signs about the weeds, the depth, and the under toe it has. Signs <br /> <br />explaining the deaths would scare people to stay out of the ponds. Add pictures names <br /> <br />and crosses. Ifit wasn't for Shauna Davis (mother of Nick Davis who drown because of <br /> <br />the ponds) nobody might have came forward and the ponds would stay deadly for the rest <br /> <br />of our lives. <br /> <br />Put trails to slope the edges so that way if somebody falls in they would be able to <br /> <br />get out. There is no slope just a drop off. Thank you for listening and try to make the <br /> <br />ponds safe. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Travis Jones <br />
