COVID-19 Outbreak (Update: More than 2.9M cases and 132,313 deaths in US)

It's all over the Irish channel Facebook page. The city sent workers out and put similar signs around the basketball court and playset. When I passed earlier, several people were sunning themselves in the grass by the signs. It just seems like an odd thing to do after so many weeks when all metrics are pointing to a lifting of the restrictions rather than a doubling down. It's incredibly condescending and weak minded of the city, as if they are trying to remind us who's in charge, just in case we didn't know what's good good for us.
having worked in/around city government and just thinking about possibilities, my guess is that the city only has the man power to target select areas and then they work through the city and probably get called off sign posting jobs to do actual maintenance quite often
i'm close to Evans playground and maybe after the 1st week of stay at home, we had caution tape tied over entrances (of course, that was torn down in no time)
about a week after they chained up the bball goals (but just the full court ones with the nets - the side goals they left alone -- i'd heard they were going to take down the whole goal and the chaining was a much smarter move i thought)
then even more caution tape
then last week we got the "playground closed" signs

more than likely this is a joint effort between NORD and parks/parkways - not sure what parks/parkways operates
but i do know that NORD tried to adopt that public/private partnership after katrina and it appears to be slowly imploding bc Chevron has pulled out of most of it's sponsorships - so a system that was fairly bare bones to begin with has had significant set backs
