Bad behavior happens everywhere.
I know - and the Cleveland Metroparks will NOT advertise this - that importuning ( meeting up for anonymous sex), drug transactions, and, yes- prostitution- happen at the Cleveland Metroparks. (sadly-so do suicides).
Dissect the viral news item about ice fishing in Hudson, OH. [1] I won't defend the mayor. He is kind of an oaf, because he didn't know how to stop what has become a "problem" in Hudson, OH - the popularity of their 50 acre lake at Hudson Springs Park. See the listing at AllTrails:

Was the Hudson mayor really concerned about ice fishing or was he concerned about bad behavior and non-residents using the residents' taxpayer-maintained park?
If he wanted to limit use of the lake by non-residents, he could have considered a residential-only parking permit for the Hudson managed city park. Hudson could also generate revenue by charging non-residents a fee for a parking permit (it would also let the City know who was using their park). Plus, non-residents might consider a carfree route to the city-owned park.
I WANT to see park systems charge people for the option to park their cars at PARKS. What do you think?
