My partner and I enjoy the trails at Winslow Park. However, we both are very tall (6 feet), and we always have to duck due to tree limbs. We also have noticed that the paths are not wide for people to pass, and the vegetation along the path closest to South Highland Avenue is severely overgrown and needs to be cut back. In addition, most of the paths are covered in small stones/pebbles, and are creating canyons in the trail when it rains. Is it possible to completely make the trails to asphalt or concrete? Thanks.

Customer called in to Parks and Recreation office complaining about shrubbery on the B-Line trail blocking the yellow flashing light warning drivers of bikers. He did not want to write in a complaint, insisted I do it, because he is a senior and he wanted to report the issue via his landline.

There is a VERY large and odd bulge in the metal framework of the B-line Trail's Grimes Street bridge. It is visible on the bridge, on the right hand side (east side), as one passes northward. Seems to be a significant structural defect.

The pump at the bike repair station by Bloomingfoods on the B-Line is broken. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that until I had lost too much air trying to fit the pump on.

I see that the Winslow trail around the baseball/softball fields is being upgraded. I've heard it will be widened and paved. Please be sure to put up a sign to remind bicyclists to yield to walkers--the sign you posted on the Jackson Creek Trail would be great. I walk this path 2 times a day. And lately too often bicyclists just plow down the trail expecting walkers to clear out of the way, even when they come upon a walker from behind.

I am wondering about the wind fall limbs in local parks, am I allowed to pick it up and take it home for my fire place???? Also when the City cuts down trees what happens to the wood??? Thank you for you time. I have lived in many places and Bloomington has some of the best parks I have seen. Thank you for that

Wonderful, 1st walk down 9 mile creek. Questions are there nature walks to identify plants? Would it be possible to identify plants with a small sign similar to Mpls. Wild Flower Garden? Can we interest the Audobon Society to schedule events? Has a bird list been made? I heard a Pileated (sp) woodpecker today. I'm living at 9 mile senior Living… can I hep in some way?

Who weed-whacked the day lilies along the B Line, between Rogers and City Hall?
