I have been meaning to submit this for years. At the toddler (upper) Bryan Park playground there is a digger that is entirely inappropriate for the age group. It's too tall, too heavy, too difficult to use for really any kid under the age of 10. My toddler son desperately wants to play with it and has gotten injured or come close to injury numerous times in his attempts. It has very heavy metal arms and it spins so he has had other kids spin it into him... it's shouldn't be on this playground. It would be great if it could be replaced with a smaller one the size of the ones at the lower playground... OR even smaller would be even better as even the lower playground ones are hard for the 2-3 year old age range. The kids definitely WANT a digger... just one they can actually use. Thanks!

Whoever installed the StoryWalk at Butler (9th St.) Park left two piles of leftover concrete on either side of the paved trail, at the northwest corner. They are a few cubic feet each and have again disappeared into the undergrowth.

Water fountain near NE corner of Showers Bldg has not been turned on this year. Additionally, the fountain near the flag pole hasn't worked for years. Water is important for people (and dogs) doing their bit for health and public engagement. If we can't have water, announce a policy and remove the fountains.

One of the two infant swings is broken in Schmalz Farm Park. The broken swing is unsafe and has very sharp edges for little children. Hopefully the swing can be replaced before long.

Many of humans at the Ferguson Dog Park do not know how to use the T-valve to turn on the water, or that spray will cool and clean their dog. Please post instructions, or use a magic marker to point the way.

Could you please tell me where I can find the pdfs listed on page 39 of the Switchyard Park Master Plan? For example, I would like to access this report: https://bloomington.in.gov/media/media/application/pdf/57.pdf. It appears to be no longer available, and nor do others on the page. Thank you.

To whom it may concern, Hello, My name is John Rodriguez. I'm a student from Mount Pleasant High School in Northeast Texas. For our Engineering Program, a couple of students and I, have been aiming to place a concrete slides in one of our local parks. We've contacted a manufacturer and asked for a list of previous customers who own one similar to the one we are considering. Thus I am here with an inquiry. I was wondering if you could give me a direct contact (Email or Phone Number), to someone in the parks department or someone who would know information, pertaining to your concrete slide, particularly things like maintenance and operation. We are compiling a list of comments and reviews for the embankment concrete slide so we can present it to our city for better consideration from them. We would greatly appreciate your assistance Sincerely, John G. Rodriguez
