Z - there is more to the story and Dick Deal has handled the entire situation very badly by escalating it. It appears that the city wants to pay Earthcorps $100K per year to arrange for volunteers to pull ivy & do parks cleanup rather than work with someone who does the same for free.

I live two blocks away from twin ponds and walk my dog there every day needless to say i have seen Dick Deal down there often the last time he followed me and my dog,when i asked if i could help him he replied"what are you doing back here". then went on to tell me that my presence was not wanted and he was in charge of the park and has been since 1977 as to which i replied "good for you" thank you shoreline for getting him out of there.Thank you nick

Just to be clear: Dick Deal is City of Shoreline staff - the Director of Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services. I do not have the name of the man who was Trespassed from the park, and if I did I would not publish it. --Editor

There are more important problems in that park than the man who was trespassed, such as the neighbor who cut all the brush, or the off leash dogs that chase wildlife or run on the new soccer field. There are regular dog walkers who think this park is their private off leash dog park and throw the ball for their dog and swim them in the pond and I never see any leash law enforcement. The parking lot has had a recent smash and grab but Dick Deal apparently thinks that it is more important to cut brush on the trails when the problems are happening on the fields, in the playground, and in the parking lot. I hope the poster Nick keeps his dog on a leash.
