Hello. Today is the first day in 16 years that I am unable to walk my dog around the complex of Mills Pool and Park and Tri-North due to the impending closure and demolition of the old Tri North building. Fortunately, we still have the amazing Mills Pool and Park to walk my dog which I am so grateful for. It is my favorite park in Bloomington and my request is for some additional upkeep to the Mills Pool and Park due to these changes. There is a sidewalk that runs along the north (back) side of the pool that connects the east and west sides of the pool. This is also a flood plane and often floods with sediment and other natural materials when it rains. It gets tall weeds during the summer and is often a challenge to walk through due to all of these factors. I am asking that this sidewalk receive increased Parks and Rec attention to keep it an accessible walkway for the residents of our community. I am also asking that a dog waste receptacle with bags be placed in the Mills Pool and Park for the residents of our community to use to keep the park free of animal waste. Thank you for considering my requests! Gratefully!

The water fountain is leaking. Water is seeping out around the base of the fixture. Thank you for addressing the erosion to the north of the steps leading up to the shelter and park. Also, there are multiple areas of erosion around the park. Notable areas are to the east of the shelter and to the south of the sidewalk on the south side of the playground structure but there are presumably other bare areas prone to erosion due to their location on a hill or in a high traffic areas. To prevent long term damage to the structure of the park and not having the shelter area turn in to a muddy mess, please address these issues.

This sidewalk on the east side of the bridge at the Goat Farm has poor drainage and this pool has been there for 3 days. At first I thought it was due to snow, but now that it's melted I can see that it's due to the ground next to the sidewalk being too high. Sorry for the duplicate, I forgot to include the photo and I didn't see a way to add it after.

My husband and I are grateful for the carefully cleared Jackson Creek Trail. Would it be possible to also clear the access sidewalk from the Sherwood Oaks parking lot to the trail itself? Negotiating it in snowy weather is a challenge for us elderly.

Last night we noticed a large amount of water (more than from snow melt) across the center path, in front of the green bench near the restrooms. It looked like it was coming up from the ground, like from a leak in a pipe.

There is a lot of Poison Ivy growing on the sidewalk on Highland Ave at entrance to the Winslow Sports Complex walking path. It would be nice to have that go away.
