I am walking my small dog at the Bradfrod park sometimes. We feel OK in daylight, many other residents are hanging out, walking or taking out their pets.
Facing fall/winter and many dark hours (especially after work at 6:00 to 9:00 pm or so), we would greatly appreciate some form of security, like police patrols (preferrably “on foot” and/or with dog) or surveillance cameras. Having the trail well-lit at all times would be another benefit - at least it would make us sure that we have to pick up (and did it) after something/one.

The PID is currently taking bids on a surveillance camera program. The Bradford park area is of high concern to many residents and will definitely be one of the first areas to receive a camera. Please look for more information from the PID on the pilot program in the upcoming months.
