HERETAUNGA PARK (pond)
Does anyone know why the Heretaunga Park (off Kiwi Street in Heretaunga is in such a mess. I usually go there to get oxygen weed for my fish but about 2 months ago I noticed it was in mown and clearly in great need of cleanup also the water was not fresh looks oily basically yuck and parts stagnant. It is usually a lovely place with a childrens park across a bridge over a stream. My main issue is that there is no actual safety warning that the ponds edge is over grown with weeds and clearly its thick silty mud as I found out on the weekend i went for a closer look i actually stepped in with 1 leg and sunk to my hip i managed to reach on to lift my self back out it was definatley an experience a little funny too just quiely i would of been so embarrassed but due to the state of it there was no one in sight except my friend. I would hate to read in the leader or see on the news or even on here on neighbourly that a child or another person has done the same but worse a child could drown. Please MAKE HERETAUNGA PARK BEAUTIFUL AGAIN.
