I was recently able to get a similar recreation area to this with no sign in a different part of town accepted by the community at the second attempt by presenting the information in this way. However, it wasn’t enough this time. Should I try moving more of the details from the supporting information to the description?
First, congratulate yourself for taking a photo of a natural area that ML did not reject! When I get these signless parks accepted, it usually has a bench I can focus on as a visual anchor for my main photo.
Do you have any links that you can include in the supporting information (or the appeal) to prove that this is an outdoor recreation area maintained by the local council?
Thank you for your reply.
The other recreation area I nominated also made it past ML, but was initially a community rejection when I tried to anchor it to a bench and then it got rejected due to " generic business". In the successful nomination, I downplayed the existence of the bench.
Unfortunately, the council do not explicitly mention this recreation area on their website, because they only reference the ones with play equipment.
I would have used the supplemental photo as the main one.
