Our house backs up to Rollingbrook Park and there is a city wood fence surrounding the park. Over the years several sections have been replaced by the city. I’ve lived here 24 years and in that time our section has never been replaced. Well it’s dry rotted and falling over.
The other day a child wandered over to our house from the park. I did not see a parent. I called out to see if there was someone with him. He attempted to climb over the dry rotted fence and fell over. Siddenly the non existent parent comes running over screaming she is going to sue me- over my broken fence. I informed her it was a city fence not mine. I want this taken care of so I don’t have to deal w this, and so the city doesn’t end up getting sued.

Bryan Park, west side of the stream that runs into Sheridan Creek near the bridge just north of restrooms. PLEASE advise mowers to mow the ragweed that grows all along there. Last year what wasn't mowed grew 3-4 feet high, flowered, and released the pollen many people are allergic to. The whole slope down from the picnic shelter in the background is full of ragweed but it got mowed and nev0er flowered. Thanks!!

Good Morning. I wondering what the process is to have a dog poop refuse trash can and bag dispenser to be installed in the green space outside of Mills Pool. I'm unsure if that is designated an actual park, but there has been an increase in use for various reasons making it seem like a park. I'm hoping to have one receptacle installed just like the one that is located in 9th St. Butler Park. Thank You!

The Ferguson Dog Park has low lying areas in all three parts of it. It floods and there is standing water for days after a rain. Just needs a little dirt and some grass seed.

Hole opened up very recently. Bryan Park, near where the feeder enters Sheridan Creek. Wasn't there a few days ago. It's quite visible so not as dangerous, but still it might be wise to fill it in.

This hole at Bryan Park is not so obvious and ir's therefore more likely someone might step in it and fall, twist an ankle, etc. So it would be good to fill it in. Gravel first, then dirt?

I love Bryan Park and have walked there nearly every morning for many years. In the past year or so, bikes have increased in numbers in the park and have become a significant danger to pedestrians. While there are many bikers who are careful and ride slowly down the park's paths, there are always a few bike riders who speed along the park's sidewalks and paths, endangering pedestrians and pets. They fail to announce themselves when they are passing people from behind and ride at speeds that are too fast to be safe. There are many older people who use the park as well as people with small children and pets. The bikers are especially dangerous to them. There should be some safe places for pedestrians in Bloomington and the parks should be among these places. Please keep the bikes out of the park and off of the sidewalks surrounding the park or please enforce bicycle speed limits in the park. This is an accident waiting to happen. An encounter with an unsafe biker is nearly a daily event in the park.
