 Parkland Residents, Owner and Friends,
Hi! We are connecting with you because of your role in the Parkland neighborhood. There is an upcoming opportunity to bring art to the community, and we would love for you to be involved!
We are looking to bring art to both the Parkland and California. We will be doing everything we can to ensure the process of creating and installing the art is community-driven and neighborhood-focused. The work will be guided by our PAINT process, and this is where we hope YOU will join!
We are seeking individuals like you across the Parkland community to be a part of an advisory group that will choose the artist and the artwork. Okay, but what would that mean for you? As a member of the advisory group, we ask that you attend a public workshop on Saturday, February 8 from 12:30-2pm. This event is open to all community members, and artists across Louisville will be encouraged to attend.
Following the public workshop there will be a few more steps needed from the advisory committee. This would be to select 5 artists to submit proposals and then choose a final and the installation will begin. We would also ensure that the community has chances to be a part of creating this art. In total, this would be about a 5-hour time commitment.
If this is not you but someone else in your organization or group that would be good, please refer them to me. I am also willing to talk more about this either in person or over the phone 502-386-4903.
I am attaching a visual that can help get artist out the community into the room and they must attend to be considered.
Thank you and I hope to hear back from you soon.

Louisville Parks and Recreation will be distributing a customer satisfaction survey to its community centers and facilities this winter - and conduct them at outdoor events and parks throughout the city this spring and summer – with the goal of providing better customer service and satisfaction to residents.
“We hope that everyone who has the opportunity to weigh in on what we can do better and will do so,” said Dana Kasler, Director of Louisville Parks and Recreation. “Even in these lean budget times, we are still committed to improving, and public feedback is essential for us to get better.”
Paper surveys will be distributed at four Louisville Parks and Recreation facilities beginning today. The survey period will last one month at the following facilities: Mary T. Meagher Aquatic Center, Beechmont Community Center, Southwick Community Center and Berrytown Community Center.
After one month, the surveys will be collected at the above sites and then new surveys will be distributed at four additional sites. The process will continue at various sites, parks and events through late summer 2020. The survey consists of 10 questions and can easily be completed within a few minutes. Parks and Recreation is seeking feedback from diverse park and recreation facility users of all ages and backgrounds.
Survey results will be made public in late 2020. In order to measure improvement, the survey process will be repeated in 2021.
“This will not be a one-time deal,” Kasler said. “We are stressing a process of continuous improvement with Louisville Parks and Recreation. The best way to do that is to always engage the public to ensure their concerns, questions, and dreams have been heard and addressed.”
The Louisville Parks and Recreation Survey can also be found online at bestparksever.com or here. However, Kasler said he is hoping that park users opt to fill out the surveys in person at the facilities and parks they use most frequently for better, more accurate data.

Seasonal Christmas tree drop-off will also include leaves this year. Starting December 26, drop-off sites will be available for all Louisville/Jefferson County residents at four locations. The Hubbards Lane site will also instantly recycle Christmas trees in to mulch that will be offered back to citizens for home use. Those wishing to receive mulch must bring an appropriate container in which to carry it. All lights and ornaments should be removed from trees before they are set out or dropped off. Residents may also drop off loose leaves. Containers used to bring leaves to the drop-off sites must be disposed of off-site by residents.
DROP OFF LOCATIONS

Metro Public Works will also provide curbside pickup of Christmas trees within the Urban Services District (the old City of Louisville boundaries) after the holiday. Beginning Wednesday, December 26, residents with City curbside yard waste pickup may set their Christmas trees and greenery out on their regular collection day. Trees must not be in plastic bags, and all decorations must be removed. Residents normally serviced by private waste haulers should check with those companies to see whether and when tree pickup is available.

As a budget cutting move, and to reduce the number of trucks operating in low-demand months, Louisville Metro Solid Waste Management will be suspending the curbside collection of yard waste in the Urban Service District (USD) beginning from January 20 through March 27, 2020.
Yard waste will be collected on your normal day BY REQUEST ONLY. Call 311 or 574-5000 to request yard waste collection. Regular yard waste collection will resume the week of March 30. (Residents with private waste haulers should contact their company about yard waste collection.)
