Patio furniture

CAR WASH
Does anyone use the NORWOOD CAR WASH on N.W. Hwy.? I'm looking around for a car wash and this place seems to be popular. They have good reviews on YELP. Does anyone use any of the other places on N.W. Hwy.? Thanks for the feedback.

Dog Park
The dog park will be relocated to the northeast section of the park and be enlarged to about 10,500 sq ft.
Work to start in June taking about 6 wks to complete.
There will also be other improvements made to the parks plumbing, etc. and other minor improvements made to other community parks as part of this effort.
Existing dog park will remain open during transition.
The existing location can be returned back to its prior use for ice-skating.
Several residents asked some general questions about the design, hours, drainage issues etc. The alderman, gent 1 and gent 2 answered.
State Rep. spoke very briefly, comments not substantial, other than implying he had something to do with obtaining funding.
Res 1: Was a park usage survey done before decisions made regarding the dog park?
As she believes it’s required residents within a 5-block radius be surveyed prior to usage changes.
Alderman O’Conner: No it hadn’t (not sounding sure) and the dog park was put in motion prior to me taking office.
Res 1 pursued the issue and the Alderman stated that it wasn’t an issue for a public forum, they could discuss privately.
Overall the audience favored dog park relocation and improvements.

I was reading the post above about all the probs w/ the dog park. I only go occassionally but everyone I meet there is from the hood so I don't know why it keeps being said ppl don't live in the area. (So what, I have gone to Wicker Dog Park, we are all Chicagoians)
I drive and walk by several times a week and at different times, and I have never seen anyone parked in the crosswalks. The hours are honored because they lock it , but I think there should be no hours, as long as the park is open.
It never looks dirty from the inside or outside when I walk by. So it is cleaned by the ppl who care about it.
Dogs have been running around that area long before any park was officially built and there was no formal concern that anyone was citing at any time. No one is going to get hurt for any reason that is related to the dog park. The same ppl with dogs have been driving and parking and walking in that area for DECADES!
