At the Farmer's Market, on Saturday, 12 August, I was surprised to see our "security" not only dressed as if he was about to go into battle, which makes me feel LESS secure, but also sitting around, not looking up from his phone screen. It was actually a vendor who first noted and grabbed a picture of this security guard. Is he mandated to come dressed for battle and shouldn't he be a presence in the market, keeping an eye on the market itself?

Look at the policies that have driven Btown from a town of interest to a handful of publicly interesting locations with decades of presence. Food vendors would better benefit the community through collaboration with sustainable government policies; rather than finding it beneficial to connect their resources to affordable public commercially available resources to afford their work.

Please adjust the rates at the market for artisan vendors, bringing the numbers into conformity with other markets in the Midwest.

I would like to advocate an end to the % fee system for Food & Beverage Artisans. We need to support local food producers who are already competing with by stores such as Kroger etc. Let's spend our $ on locally grown food & take away another challenge that they are facing in trying to seel their products locally.

We want to advocate for our local artisans and their unfair percentage fee for participating in the market. We love Muddy Fork Bakery and several other local food and drink artisans and would love to have them included in the City Market, but think it is unfair that they are slapped with such a high fee just to participate. I believe that if the market is open to more vendors, it will thrive and be even more popular with customers. I hope you will consider a change to the rule so that the market can help build a diverse local economy that benefits the business owners, employees, and consumers.

Hello, My name is Jacob and I am a Recreation Supervisor with Lee’s Summit Parks and Recreation in Missouri. We are conducting a review of our current Inclement Weather Policies and are reaching out to various other departments around the country. We are looking for any information regarding the following: • Weather Policies regarding Extreme Heat and Lightning during outside events and activities. • Methods used to detect lightning (Weather Apps, Specific Equipment such as lightning detectors, Payed services) • If you have separate policies for different facilities. (i.e. Outdoor pools, Amphitheaters, Outdoor fields and Sports complexes) Any information that you could provide would be greatly appreciated. I can be reached at jacob.johnson@cityofls.net or 816-969-1544. Thank you,

Hello, I love the new look and feel of your website, but I'm having trouble signing up for a fall Parks and Rec program. I got the brochure in the mail over the weekend, but any documentation for classes is either for summer or for fall 2017. When do you expect for this to be updated with fall 2018 information?

The web page for Frank Southern Ice Arena (link below) has an outdated link in the green button labeled "Visit Calendar." The link opens last year's calendar; it should open the calendar for the current year. https://bloomington.in.gov/parks/facilities/frank-southern

Hello, I couldn't find a more appropriate forum or contact information to use for this concern. I'm not sure if there are anymore movies in Bryan Park for the season, so if not maybe this could be applied to next year. I am wondering if the event could have a sort of rule for bringing lawn chairs. It would be really nice if folks bringing lawn/camp chairs could sit on one side and others with blankets and sitting on the ground could sit on another side. I was grateful to spend time with a friend watching a movie put on by the parks system. We came early and were prepared with blankets but ended up having to rearrange everything multiple times before and during the movie because of individuals coming in and setting up chairs in front of us, therefore blocking the screens. I know that there were plenty of people around us with the same issues. I think having a split down the middle of the lawn would be an easy way to make this a non-issue. (I am not including folks who need adaptive seating, as theirs' should always be a primary concern and I assume there is a place in front for accessible spots already in place.) Thank you so much for taking the time to read through my report and please pass it along to another individual who may be a better resource. Have a great day! Kam
