Water fountains at southeast park still have yet to be turned on. Will they be turned back on at any point? The fountain by the tennis courts was used heavily by many runners who no longer have access to water on their routes.
The mulch in the Broadview park under the swings and playground has washed away in areas causing deep groves that could be dangerous for children. It looks like more mulch is needed and the washed away mulch needs to be cleaned up. Thank you!
Question: May I serve alcoholic beverages to my guests at this location on August 13, a date that I earlier reserved?
Extremely rude boat house attendants at Griffey Lake today. Instead of letting us know the lake was closed when they saw us unload and launch our kayaks; the attendant waited until we were launched and past the bridge before screaming at us that the lake was closed. Had he let us know if any sort of nicer way this wouldn’t have been a problem at all. He also just stood and watched us load back up our kayaks and did not explain at all that the lake was closed. There were many people fishing and using the dock today so that was confusing that the lake was just closed to us. Hateful interactions like this will cause us to gladly not use this facility again.
Fence between 2 areas of the Ferguson dog park have been taken down or fell down between yesterday and this morning.
While playing at the Lion's Den and Lower Cascades playgrounds, I've encountered employees smoking on the playground premises while children are present. They are the cleanup crew who care for the restrooms and trash. While I don't care about their habits or what they do with their break time, playgrounds are supposed to be a smoke free zone, and especially while kids are there.
Hello, I use the B-Line nearly everyday and have for the past year living while in Bloomington. I have noticed over the course of this summer parts of the line’s gravel running path have become overgrown with grass and tree branches, as well as having been filled by regular dirt. Many people who use the trail for this purpose, myself included, have resorted to running on the concrete. This is a high impact surface which causes pain in joints, especially in the feet and legs. Also, there are many bikers on the trail and the running path allows for myself and others to be out of the way. Resolving this problem will be very much beneficial to those in the community who use the B-Line trail for daily exercise. Thank you.
We've got a few neighborhood folk wanting to convert multi use low maintenance green space in park ridge east to dirty expensive and exclusive use dog park for a minority of local residents. Please make sure this idea goes nowhere. Ample options exist for dog owners without destroying one of the city's best small neighborhood model parks.
