Our Director of Parks and Recreation, Ali Rhodes, shared the following information with me that you may find helpful.  The Pearl Street location is currently closed and will open later this week and we do have portable restrooms and a handwashing station available at that site. The public also may not have realized that a new bathroom facility was opened at 9th Street, just recently:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse:collapse"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="156" valign="top" style="width:116.85pt;border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt"> <o:p> </o:p> </td> <td width="156" valign="top" style="width:116.9pt;border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;border-left:none;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt"> Permanent<o:p></o:p> </td> <td width="156" valign="top" style="width:116.9pt;border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;border-left:none;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt"> Handwashing<o:p></o:p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="156" valign="top" style="width:116.85pt;border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;border-top:none;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt"> Pearl<o:p></o:p> </td> <td width="156" valign="top" style="width:116.9pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext 1.0pt;border-right:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt"> Closed due to vandalism scheduled to be repaired later this week<o:p></o:p> </td> <td width="156" valign="top" style="width:116.9pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext 1.0pt;border-right:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt"> Y<o:p></o:p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="156" valign="top" style="width:116.85pt;border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;border-top:none;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt"> Chautauqua<o:p></o:p> </td> <td width="156" valign="top" style="width:116.9pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext 1.0pt;border-right:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt"> Y<o:p></o:p> </td> <td width="156" valign="top" style="width:116.9pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext 1.0pt;border-right:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt"> Y<o:p></o:p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="156" valign="top" style="width:116.85pt;border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;border-top:none;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt"> Eben G.
