HERMISTON — The Hermiston Parks and Recreation Department has been forced to remove the picnic tables from McKenzie Park due to repeated vandalism.
The tables have been damaged on a regular basis over the past few months, including being spray-painted, broken and set on fire. The incessant damage has made them unsafe for use and has cost the city a lot of money in repairs and replacement.
