cleanup and a new look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur guys have been working really, really hard at cleaning up all the trees,\u201d Parks Superintendent Cara Gerber recently told city council following some extremely strong winds which were hard on trees in the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cleanup delayed a project of putting markers on the trail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gerber said trail markers are being placed every 1\/4 mile with the numbers 911 at the top so people know they can give the trail marker&#8217;s number to the dispatch center if they have to call for an emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div
