Agreed, the parking areas accessible from Fitch Street are for Coogan Pavilion, the skate park and the dog run. Like it or not, some people do drive to the park and having the gate open at Fitch Street (it's a pedestrian and bike entrance too, actually) says" the park is closed" and "not welcome". We'd like to encourage more people to use the park, not fewer.

Parks, please acknowledge and let us know what the Fitch Street gate hours and policy are.
