Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to draw your attention to an issue I have recently observed in the Greenfield Public Park, located near my residence.

I visit the park almost every evening for a walk or light exercise, and I appreciate the peaceful atmosphere and well-maintained walking trails. However, over the past month, I have noticed that one of the outdoor fitness stations, specifically the pull-up bar section near the east entrance, has become loose and unstable. It appears to be damaged at the base, and I have seen several park users struggle with it, posing a serious risk of injury.

Given that the equipment is frequently used by both young adults and senior citizens, I believe this matter requires urgent attention. I would recommend either securing the existing structure with proper reinforcements or replacing it altogether if necessary. Additionally, placing a temporary warning sign would help alert visitors until repairs are made.

Thank you for maintaining such a lovely community space. I hope this issue can be resolved soon to ensure everyone’s safety and continued enjoyment of the park.

Yours faithfully,

Ravi Mehta
