One week after the fountain in Library Square Park was vandalized, it has 
happened again.
This morning, I found the remaining globe was found destroyed and thrown into 
the 
fountain, along with an assortment of trash.
Last week, I reported this to the police, the AP Historical Society and Jim 
Keady.
Jim Keady sent me an email about it and said he'd bring it up to the council. 
He also asked 
for my phone number stating that the city manager wanted to discuss this with 
me. So far 
i've heard nothing. Nothing from the AP Historical Society, who did not answer 
my 2 
emails about this.
I'm going to try one other thing. I'll call the parks dept and see if they've 
even heard about 
this.
I'm also tired of complaining about it, so tomorrow night at 7 pm, my 
girlfriend and I are 
going to clean up the fountain ourselves, and anybody who'd like to join us is 
welcome.
We are also going to plant some flowers.
Of course, there are no cameras anywhere, so it's likely that our work will be 
for nothing 
and the fountain will be damaged and used as a trash dump again.
In discussing this with my girlfriend, she was shocked that there are no 
cameras anyplace 
in the city. She's a tough chick, a state animal control officer, and she told 
me that she's 
scared to walk my dog in the park after dark...in fact she's afraid of the city 
in general at 
night...which is shocking to me considering the things she's dealt with in her 
life.
Anyhow, think about joining us to clean up the fountain tomorrow night at 7 pm. 
I'm also 
going to contact the APP about this.
