Leonard Springs Park, parking lot Today 3/12/26 at around 4:30pm I was approached by a man just outside the parking lot. While I approached the lot, he was sitting in his car with the windows down playing loud music. When I got closer, he got out of this car and started walking down the gravel path in my direction. When he was about 10 feet away he said to me: "Thats a pretty cat." (I had my 90lb dog with me.). I laughed and said thanks and kept walking. He then stopped and asked "Are you bouncing right now?" I didn't understand him and just said No and kept walking. He then mumbled a bit and said something like "yea just asking, if you weren't leaving, I was gonnna go take some pictures and you could come." I told him I was yea I was leaving and walked away. Nothing egregious, but the interaction made me uncomfortable. It felt like a predatory interaction and I wouldn't want anyone else to experience this. If I didn't have my dog with me, I would have felt unsafe. I didn't get a license plate, but he was driving a white, four-door car, maybe a Ford Focus. Not brand new, but not old either. He was roughly 5'10 - 6ft. Sandy blonde hair. Wearing all black - sneakers, skinny jeans, a tattered leather jacket. He was a normal to thin build. White male.

The street apron at the entrance to Leonard Springs Nature Park is badly eroded, to the point where vehicles can bottom out and scrape against the edge of the remaining asphalt. This happens even when turning very slowly and carefully into the park. I believe it needs to be filled in with road base and topped with asphalt or concrete. Thanks!

Hello, I broke my leg trying to cross the footbridge in Highland village park Wednesday evening while walking my dog. I and others have told me they have slipped on this footbridge and they agree it is a hazard. Now I will be on crutches for 4-6 weeks and have to pay for significant costs. You need to replace this bridge with a safer structure or your liability will become obvious.

There is a whole lot of bush clover growing around the picnic area beyond the gate at Leonard Springs Nature Park. bush clover is invasive especially in wooded areas and should be removed.
