Dunedin Florida's Hammock Park & The Poor Work Completed By Employees

Dunedin Florida's beautiful Hammock Park and the poor work that has been completed by city employees is something that needs to be addressed! This is one of my favorite little local parks to take walks in and a couple of months ago we saw city employees out replacing slats on the boardwalk.

I was extremely disappointed when we returned this weekend to find the old slats simply discarded next to the repaired boardwalk. Nails are sticking up waiting for little boys playing in the area or wild animals to walk on. This is a prime example of city employees doing poor work. Is it too much to ask that they haul the old boards full of rusty nails away when their work is complete.

It makes me wonder who is in charge of this work? Is it subcontracted out to some local company that is somebody's cousin or is it simply (as I suspect) city employees not doing their job correctly? Whatever the case, it needs to be addressed since this is really inexcusable work! This is not something I would expect to find in Dunedin Florida, so I have sent emails to the appropriate city park's offices to request more information on why this situation exists in our lovely Hammock Park. There will be follow up information coming!

Sounds like someone needs to call the city.  That is a hazard for sure.

That is very sad. Evidently they were subscribing to the "That's not my job" philosophy.

Wow that's really crappy.  Maybe somebody forgot to pick them up.

Sounds like you need to forward this post to the local news channel for some much needed attention.

I have since heard from the person in charge of the parks in Dunedin that the crew will be back to collect this discarded wood. My question is why it is taking a couple of months to get rid of it. I would think the 'trash' would be collected on a daily basis when the workers are leaving for the day. They must use something to haul the new wood in, so it would make sense to use the same device to haul the old wood out.
