This afternoon 10-24-2024 I witnessed a school aged child (7/8 years old) defecate and urinate at the top of the largest playground slide at the Buskirk/Waldron Park. The feces and urine rolled down the entirety of the large slide. The parents cleaned the slide with a wet wipe as far as they could reach from the bottom, but surely not the whole length and definitely not sanitized. Can you please clean and sanitize the whole thing? Thank you!
Please keep introducing new no mow zones in public parks to increase the growth of native plant species and increase biodiversity in our town. Increasing these spaces can greatly improve the quality of life in the surrounding area, not just for humans but also for many crucial insects and animals in our city.
There is poop all the way down the big purple slide. Park ridge park.

I'm writing to express my gratitude for the efforts Bloomington Parks and Rec is making to support reduce pollution, save money, and support native species and ecosystem services in our city parks. I've been particularly delighted to see former areas of lawn in Winslow Park and Crestmont Park converted to no mow zones and planted with native trees! After just a short period of time, these areas are already supporting wildlife and adding natural beauty (asters were blooming today!) in a ways that mowed lawns never could. Thank you for supporting these no mow zones - I'd love to see more of them!
I found the metal sign for not smoking in the children's play area ripped off and left along Longview Avenue. I brought it up to the play area and put it under the oak tree along the SW edge of the park. There I also found two wood rails that might have been the base for the sign, and a fresh hole.
