We cleaned the ditch between E Southdowns Dr and E Sheridan Dr. The debris has been stacked at the intersection of S Ballantine and E Sheridan Dr. Would the city parks dept please set a date for pick-up? Thank you. V/r, Mark
Time to update this to indicate what the switch is for. Maybe update the wood post into something that looks less temporary. At least paint or stain. At best replace with a metal post.
Dog water fountain at Bryan Park seems clogged/not draining. It was full before i pushed the button and i couldn't clear it by hand. It is good that it doesn't drain too fast, but too slow or not at all mean stale water and mosquito breeding grounds. Thanks!
I am afraid of this park due to drugs, sleeping people and drinking. It sure sets a bad example for Bloomington as a friendly town.
Rather than blowing the dust around this and other Bryan Park playground, perhaps park employees could weed the mulch. I think it looks OK, but a better use of employee time, I think. Or take care of the weeds on the various spruce trees along the paths. That latter item may already be on a regular maintenance calendar, but that too would be more useful than dust blowing.
Tuesday morning around 8 a parks employee was blowing dust around near the basketball courts and nearby parking lot. A leaf blower in both hands. Why? Air and noise pollution, carbon footprint. Years ago every morning except Sunday at 7:30 the playground on the Henderson side had dust blown around. Worse then because those blowers had more powerful motors. But why? What is accomplished? I mean this as a serious question. When I see employees spraying a picnic shelter with liquid from a tank, i figure that is disinfectant or pesticides for an area where people eat, drop food, attract pests. I get it. But the dust blowing, I just dont Thanks
The sign for the Woodlawn shelter has a piece of board that has come off the signpost. The board is currently leaning against the sign. It's an interior trim board that needs to be put back on or replaced.
THANKS for straightening up this sapling so quickly!
The city Public wifi and city secure network wifi are not working in Waldron, Hill, and Buskirk Park.
Well done! Those black gum trees up near the workout equipment in Bryan Park look very nice---color now (and again later in the fall, I assume)
