I noticed that there is another concert this Sunday in Bryan Park. My family loves attending the concerts and movies since we live near by. I have noticed that the grass has was really long at the last concert and seems like has not been cut as regularly. Is there any chance it could be cut before these events?

There is a new sign in the parking lot at the Butler Community Garden on a pile of rotted wood chips that has been aging for a couple of years. The sign warns that the material is infested with invasive jumping worms. If that's the case, shouldn't this be removed and disposed of? If the sign is vandalized or destroyed and the material is used, what is the danger to the community garden plots?

Unfortunately we are three weeks into the baseball season and the batting cages are still not setup at the Winslow Sports Complex. The kids have had no opportunity to practice batting, many of which are new to baseball and this is critical for getting them prepared for the first game and may impact their willingness to participate. Youth sports is such an important part of the community and having a good first experience is important. I would like to know what is causing the delay of the batting cage setup and when they are expected to be completed. Thank you.

I believe this tree behind my house was struck by lightening causing a large section of the tree to fall toward Moore's Pike. Much of what can be seen in the tree is vines, not leaves. Much of the tree is dead.

Are there any tennis courts with free lights at night? Grew up near one that you pressed a button for thirty minutes of lights. Was awesome. Hope there is around here

We hope these comments will fall on fertile ground resolving a vacant feeling at the Farmer's Market. For many years, Medicare for All Indiana Bloomington, formerly known as Hoosiers for a Commonsense Health Plan, has had a booth in Information Alley, paying ahead for the whole season. Our booth has been well attended by market patrons by having many deep and important conversations about healthcare with people who live in the Bloomington area, other regions around Indiana, the US, and indeed, international students and visitors. COVID restricted our being at the market. Last year, the days the market was open for Information Alley, it frequently rained, so we cancelled several times. Today was our first day back for 2023. Information Alley felt like a ghost town. No food vendors and only two other booths, the Dems and the ballet students. What was missing was the spirit of a bustling market with people buying bread, coffee, tea, pastries, savory eggs and tamales. When we asked about the empty food area, we were told that it's the vendor fees keeping vendors out. We've been hearing this for many years. The popularity of the food vendors goes hand in hand with the market growers. Market growers we spoke with this morning expressed the same attitude. Each group, the food vendors and market growers, support the other in bringing people to the market. If in fact, it's the fee, then we believe that the decision is penny wise and pound foolish from what we witnessed today. The market is dull without the bustling food vendor area. The identity of Bloomington having a thriving farmers market is an asset to the entire community. We're curious just how much money is involved with fees for the food vendors. Are they being asked to subsidize the market without setting up in the heart of the market with covered space? How much do the total fees collected from food vendors add to the Parks and Recreation budget? And is the fee worth the alienation of food vendors in the long run? We look forward to hearing your response. Medicare for All Indiana - Bloomington Karen Green Stone Cathy Rountree Kris Campbell Rob Stone, MD

Pls charge food vendors the same as produce booths. I want to see them back to what once was our thriving Saturday market. Thanks!

The fees for food vendors are too high and are driving vendors away from the market. That also means that the market is less interesting to patrons. The local food vendors are important to those who come. Please lower these fees.
