I hope you enjoyed the tour. I'm sure you enjoyed the food. Maintenance activities during October have included: • Mowing of parks and athletic fields. We are in the process of completing our last full mowing cycle. The grass is really slowing down now, and while we may have to mow a few of our parks one more time, I think most of them have seen their last mower blade until spring. • Soccer and football fields maintenance activities have included painting lines, repairing nets, and removing and storing goals on fields no longer in use. • Lino Park warming house completed exterior painting. • Fertilized athletic fields and irrigated park areas. (approximately 42 acres) • Broadleaf weed control to south half of Marshan Park. (contracted) • Irrigation blowouts and winterization. We currently maintain and blowout 12 systems.
