I live close to Summit Elementary and there is a lot of loud music with heavy bass going on today at RCA Park. Also tons of dogs barking constantly. I don’t live too close, so I’m surprised I can hear anything at all. That’s how loud it is.

Homeless people leaving debris against our building(Mural Wall) Also Patrons of people's park have been urinating by our dumpster (we have witnessed) and the corner where our mural wall ends and your fence begins. We have been bleaching the our property to remove the urine smell. We have also witness a few health events from the park patrons and where ambulances have been called. I would also suggest locking up the power outlet at the North end of the park because patrons of the park have been camping out re-charging their cell phones
Homeless encampment at inner tree line of Bryan Park, near youngest kid playground area and restrooms. This should not be allowed. Leaves kids, families, and general public feel unsafe and unable to utilize the park to its full capacity l, as our taxes pay for. The general public is sympathetic to the transient population, but individuals should not be subjected to tents, clothes, needles, etc. being parked all the time in this park and all parks for that matter. There has been an uptick in homeless encampments across town.
I'm going to start a weekly inquiry for when the Switchyard Skatepark lights are going to be fixed. There are still many bulbs out and there are plenty of dark spots so skating past sundown becomes dangerous, despite lots of people still skating around that time.
These people have been sleeping under the Woodlawn shelter at Bryan Park - at least since this past weekend and have completely set up camp. I know this is a class A misdemeanor for trespassing. Please tell them they cannot sleep in the park legally.

Half of the 8 light fixtures across the two light poles at Switchyard Skatepark are out and have been for quite some time.
This is supposed to be a city park built for parents to take their children to be kids and have fun. I took my niece to the park the other day and found pills in one of the tunnels, needles in the bathroom and on the play area, powder on the ground in the water area (which the drugged up homeless said their buddy spilt his meth there). Then I found out that they are allowed to camp there. There are plenty of places for them to sleep and leave their remnants that isn’t in the path of innocent children. You’ve been mayor since 2016 and you know the homeless has become a bigger problem every year. We can’t go to a park in Bloomington without someone drugged up and laying across the tables, walking around cussing and threatening anyone walking by. Homeless at every stoplight claiming to be veterans. The parks are the worse and I will make sure that everyone hears what is going on at the parks and our Mayor is allowing this to go on. My comments involve the parks, restroom, picnic areas, playgrounds and water areas.
The lights in Peoples Park along the eastern edge of the park and on the 507 E. Kirkwood Avenue building are not operating, creating a haven at night for an overnight encampment of people, various belongings, litter, etc. The lights shine into the Park to create more visibility/safety for pedestrians/visitors.
