Can we remove the bump in the middle of the Bryan Park lot at Henderson and Allen? As you turn from Henderson into the parking lot its nearly impossible not to crash into the bump. It makes no sense, has no signage and the paint is always faded. Two grandmas just trying to bring their grandkids to the park hit it this week. How many cars need to be destroyed by this parking lot? Remove it or paint it or put more signage on it.

There is significant erosion occurring in Park Ridge Park on the col-du-sac side of the park. I was hoping the park and this issue could be put on the list to receive new grass or whatever attention it needs to reduce the erosion. Thank you.

The Lower Cascades Playground - The Yellow wooden Floors in the Lower Playground are deteriorating pretty badly. They are probably okay for the season, but there are starting to be significant signs of needing repairs and replaced. The Upper Cascades Playground main slide is not structurally sound to carry the weight of a three year old. The sections are splitting from each other.

The smell when driving by is so bad it makes me sick, if you are not going to move the homeless at least get porta pottyes so they are not just using the ground. No one wants to smell the foul odor coming from this park.

Every since the parks department allowed tents at seminary park throughout the day there are increasingly large numbers of people not social distancing without mask in a small confined space. They are then dispersing throughout the community (Kroger, shalom, rally’s, etc...), once again not wearing mask. This is not what the CDC means when they say not to tear down homeless communities. It’s to prevent them spreading disease. Our homeless community still socializes without regard to others in the community and therefore not breaking up that tent camp is irrelevant to what the CDC recommends. Also there are tons of laws being broke at seminary park every day. The park is filled with trash, used needles, and feces just to name a few problems. Litter is blowing everywhere in the surrounding area. The law and rules apply to everyone in the community. Please hold everybody accountable! Failure to do so will impact Bloomington’s economy and slow the recovery through this pandemic.

What is the city doing about the growing homeless camp in the city park, Seminary Park? Is the intention to make this camp permanent? It seems to have been growing for about a year, with seemingly little effort to address it, the safety of passersby, or the sanitation issues that accompany it.

Tents set up overnight. Tons of trash. Social gatherings > 15 people. Alcohol and drug use. Apparently city has social workers at park to hand out free water and supplies. Nobody is taking care of real problems.

Other: Tents up overnight. Lots of trash. People breaking all kinds of laws. Looks like dozens of different people have reported similar problems. Why, over a period of several years can nothing be done? Seems like this needs to turn into a legal battle since the city who gets paid by taxpayers and is required to uphold laws and rules we agree upon refuses to properly address this problem. ***closed within 10 min of posting-almost like the city doesn’t want other people to see***
