Reverend Butler power outlet in shelter looks dangerous and Broken
Go Express busses are driving recklessly through the Sportsplex parking lot. I was dropping my daughter off for her program yesterday at 6:00pm. A bus nearly ran over the front of my car as it was turning to go toward the side parking lot. I was stopped with my window down and told the driver that she should slow down. She stated that I was in her blind spot. Then she continued to drive forward and I had to quickly back up to give her room to turn while trying to avoid hitting the car behind me. After walking my daughter into the building, another bus went by and was also driving too fast for being in a parking lot. Why are these buses cutting through the lot? They can enter at the stoplight closer to Weimer Road if needed and avoid putting parks and rec patrons in danger.
Divider in the middle of walkway impedes access to Bryan Park Pool. A painted line instead could solve this problem.
I walk through Switchyard Park on a regular basis, generally between 7:30 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. I notice that the restrooms at Switchyard Park open at 10:00 a.m.; I urge you to consider opening them at 8:00 a.m. The park gets quite a lot of use, as early as 7:30 a.m., by joggers, bikers, skateboarders, pickle ball players, etc. Personally my wife and I have needed the restroom on several occasions before 10:00 a.m. Recently I saw a gentleman who appeared rather frustrated that the restrooms weren't open at 8:30 a.m. Please consider an earlier opening time. Many thanks.
Bryan Park, north of the asphalt path, this path to the new work-out stations is badly eroded. Could it be paved too?
Several of the lights at the Winslow Park tennis courts are out, which makes playing at night less than ideal.
The music being played at the park shelter volume is not a problem, but the bass coming from there is rattling our apartment by the elementary school. Please put up a sign to keep the bass down or something to that nature. I am a diabetic, with frequent migraines. Sincerely, Caleb Thomas
The City owns TWO Historic Buildings. The Waldron AND The Banneker. One serves white residents. The other serves Black residents. One is getting a $500k renovation. The other desperately needs roof, HVAC, windows, flooring, masonry and drainage repair. Recover forward should honor ALL residents of Bloomington. Black and white. Invest in The Banneker.
The back door over by the parking lot is open. I believe it has been all night. I remember noticing it last night and it's still open. Unless someone is in there. Thanks
The Banneker Center needs funding. Honor the Eagleson family for REAL. Not with a street sign. But by revitalizing the very community center they grew up in.
