The playground area at Schmalz Farm Park may need some attention. It has begun to be overgrown with weeds and crab grass in the playground area. Thanks in advance for your help!

I have been informed of plans to remove a planting of native trees designed to be critical riparian buffer in Schmalz Farm Park. This is an ecologically unsound decision, and is extremely wasteful as many of these trees may not survive being transplanted twice in such a short amount of time. It's been made clear to me that this decision was made at the behest of a single constituent who called in a personal favor to the deputy mayor. I believe this is undemocratic and nepotistic, and prioritizes the aesthetic goals of a single individual ocert the public benefit of this planting, which will help protect Jackson Creek from runoff and floods which threaten fish and amphibians downstream. I would urge the city to listen to the voices of all constituents, not just those with personal connections to politicians, and to act in the best interest of not just your constituents but also the environment, and allow the planting to remain. There is no shortage of fields for re-creating at this park and at many parks nearby, but few areas for the city to invest in urban greenspace with benefits for humans and nonhumans alike.

Schamltz Farm Park. There's a utility cable crossing the ground on the trail from the neighborhood. AT&T or Comcast likely.

This is a loosestrife. It is highly invasive and I found it growing between the parking lot and the small stream that flows into Jackson Creek, which means that it can spread downstream along the creek.

I noticed that someone planted a large number of small trees in an open space in the park. I think it is fantastic that our city is taking these steps to protect it's soils and watersheds, while developing beautiful green spaces. One if the reasons I moved to Bloomington was this progressive attitude.

On August 21st, I reported a homeless camp at Wapehani Park. It was examined and reported back to me that the camp was on private property. I found this quite strange, because it is on a trail that has a difficulty marker at the beginning of the trail. It totally looks like the other trails in the park and there's absolutely no way to tell it's private property. At any rate, the homeless people have moved on and have left a large amount of trash in what I believe is the park. There are probably 15+ large bags worth of trash - clothes, books, pans, papers, etc. My original report was 165599. I really hope someone will look, because I really don't think what I'm describing is on private property. Thanks for your consideration!
