On August 29, 2025 at approximately 6:30 PM, a City of Bloomington employee wearing a grey shirt labeled SECURITY was seen at Switchyard Park (under a shelter near benches, Northeast corner near the playground) using his cane to abuse a homeless person's dog with no prior exchange between the dog or owner and that employee witnessed. I was told by a bystander that the employee approached to hit the dog due to "complaints of the dog biting children," however, there were no children present near the dog at the time, and complaints like that should be handled by Animal Control. During this incident, I was informed that there are security cameras present in the area. I ask that if this is the case, footage is reviewed and the employee is educated on handling animal complaints in an appropriate and non-abusive manner.

The lighting along the east side of the walking path which circles Winslow Sports Park was not lit at 9 PM tonight, August 23. That section is very dark without light after dark, and has been a safety concern in the past. Thank you.

Southeast Park tennis courts have tall weeds growing around the fence area. Also, the sidewalk on the northside of the tennis courts is caked in mud, making it difficult to use. This was addressed a couple of months ago, but the mud is back. Looks like the sidewalk needs to be raised or re-done to fix the problem.
