The parking lot in Bryan Park near the sand volleyball court along Henderson has a problem. On the north side of the main play structure in the play surface there is a decent sized hole. This hole is big enough that a child or adult could easily step in it and be injured. The hole is through a rubber type play surface covering the ground. I'd recommend repairing this if possible.
I went to the Parks and Rec website pages to find where all the parks are in the City. I found it in the program guide, but it would be nice if this were online and interactive (when I mouse over a location, I'm provided with descriptive info about the place and its amenities). Is this in the works? Also - there is a site called "Millenium Park" on Adams Street across from one of the Bloom Apartment complexes. They have doggie bags and some trashcans for full doggie bags, but the trashcans are always overflowing. Just wondering who owns and caretakes this park - I'm not seeing it among the parks that the City owns and cares for.
White Oak Cemetery- Please consider trimming the tree branches that are blocking the sidewalk along 7th Street
The southwest half of court(closest to the school)has a very deep crevice. One of our ladies that play there often( three x a week) almost fell. She had had two hip replacements. It is a hazard for all that play. Other courts happened to be full.
There was a vehicle without a license plate in RCA Park tonight that was driving back into the woods area. They dod this by removing a fence barrier, diving on the grass and then on the paved path. They were parked back by the old torn down shelter house. They were being quite loud. They were then driving on the pavement. I am sending photos that may appear as several messages.
Suspicious activity. Multiple people doing something at the park. Between 2 and 4 am
Tree down across the Bloomington Rail Trail north of Gordon Pike
The gate pin and hinge is made so you can't swing through. The pin is almost out and it won't fit back in. Needs repaired.
Attn. Parks Department A request to install a dog waste station at the Park Ridge park. We have discussed preliminary logistics with staff member Joanna Sparks when she met with us on a related parks initiative. We believe the station will be well utilized and maintained by our park custodial staff member. He provides good consistent service by the way. Please consider this request, placed in a shady area maybe at the base of the ADA path close to the street circle level. We have many dog walkers in the area so it will be appreciated. Thank you -
