www.wktv.com/community/uticas-chancellor-park-getting-a-2-million-makeover/article_e38539c8-ccce-11ed-a5f9-6bb0909093a9.htmlWow PB. You might want to consider moving back to your old apartment so you could trot across the street for a rousing game of pickle ball. haha. On the bright side, it will be a very nice park with plenty of appealing features and things for people to do, and the GOOD people living in the area deserve that. On the downside, how long will it be before it is vandalized and ruined by the usual cast of characters that make the park an undesirable place now. Building a bocce ball court and splash pad is not going to deter the drug activity and other unsavory activities that take place in the park.

Never. That park is actually a doggie park toilet bowl. Also a haven for rats because many of the people who live in the municipal apartments across the street dump all there stale bread for the crows and some other birds. Five times I had to call the DPW because of a rat family living in the gazebo. The last which was far long ago had 10 dead bodies outside of where they lived. They need to have a seperate area for people to bring there dogs to poop.

Part of the plan should have included a fenced off area for a dog park, where dogs could run unleashed. We have a couple of dog parks here. I take our pup to one that has two fenced areas. One is for small dogs and the other for large dogs. They have doggie water fountains and dispensers filled daily free with doggie poop bags to pick up after your dog. The people police themselves and are not shy about telling someone to pick up after their dog if they neglect to do so.

They should put vending machines in the doggie Parks filled with treats. Also low level water fountains. I remember walking my little Pomeranian at Proctor Park. Water fountains for them would be nice. I always had to be sure I had an extra bowl for water in my car. I loved that and he ( Chivas ) loved the parks. He was a 3 shade of blonde color.

We use to go to Chancellor Park alot with my parents when I was very young. I think they had a pool there too,like the one they had at Brandegee School. ( a cement watering hole they filled in the summer). My poor mom almost got killed there when some boys were playing ball and the bat hit her in the head when he tossed it after hitting the ball. Thank God he didn’t take her out.

Thank God he didn’t take her out. There were several of the city playgrounds and parks that had those oval shaped wading pools when we were kids. I used to take my younger sister to the one at Seymour school occasionally when they had playground monitors and all sorts of activities for the kids. In later years my brother was actually a playground monitor at General Herkimer school as a summer job while in college. |
