No issue!
I am enrolled in the Resident's Academy and recently toured Switchyard Park with hosts Paula McDevitt and Tim Street. This was super enjoyable and informative. Kudos to Paula, Tim, and their respective crews!

The Switchyard Skatepark lights need turned back on for the evenings. I've talked to the construction crew and they only intended them to be off for the first couple days. Thanks!

Switchyard Skatepark lights still haven't been turned on. B-Line and adjacent park lights came on around 7:10p last night, and by the time I left at 8 (because it was too dark to keep skating), they still weren't on. I'd really like to make sure they're on for tomorrow's opening of the new features! (Though tonight would be better)
Secondary comment: Is there a way to update old tickets instead of creating new ones? I've tried replying to the emails in the past but that didn't seem to work.

On the basketball courts, one of the hoops is missing the crank to raise/lower the basket. I've seen individuals manually raise and lower it by using a similar piece to the cranks, but having the crank replaced greatly enhances the usability of the courts.

Around 8:45 this morning, I encountered a strong stench coming from the woods to the west of the B-Line Trail in Switchyard park between lampposts 20 and 21. It smelled like rotting flesh. Could someone please investigate to make sure it isn't a hazard or concern?

Half of the 8 light fixtures across the two light poles at Switchyard Skatepark are out and have been for quite some time.

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.

On nice days would it be possible for the Park staff (and the Bloomington police) to be more active in enforcing face coverings and the limit on gatherings. This was a day when Indiana hit another record (11/7). THe pickle ball court was taken over by this group of more than 25 people who were having a tournament. Most were not wearing masks as they sat around. Down the road the playground was packed. I know this is especially hard for staff or police since it's the parents making poor decisions, not wearing masks, and most if not all children not wearing masks.

Taxpayers have spent 10’s to 100’s of million dollars on this area and the city is allowing the homeless to take over the park. There are several stolen shopping carts there. There is also personal possession and trash everywhere. There are also makeshift tents where people are spending the night.
This is beyond frustrating given the amount of money the city has took in from taxpayers.

On the northside light pole, two of the five lights are out.
