I mentioned this issue at the Parks and Rec board meeting last Tuesday. They said they would look into it, but it is always a good idea for more than one person to contact the city about an issue. They did say that if nearby residents complain about the lights shining into their homes, that can be the reason the lights were turned off. Another comment at the meeting was that having lights on at night can send a message to the public that it is OK to use the park at night after hours. In any case, we can see if having the lights on makes a difference. 

Also, Parks and Rec management has started a park security pilot program this month - meaning they have hired two security patrols to watch the parks with the most complaints from 10:00 p.m. - 2:00 a.m. If it works they will extend the program in the future.

#yiv5122159822 #yiv5122159822 -- DIV {margin:0px;}#yiv5122159822 At our last Nob Hill Neighborhood Association Crime Prevention meeting, several people expressed their concerns about the group of people that sleep in the park.  One of the issues with Morningside Park is that the lights in the park never came on at night.  A perfect location for night-time sleepers and people using the park for various activities. I don't know if anyone else called CABQ about this problem, but I did call and drove by the park tonight.  Lights in the park are on!
