Hi, I am hoping you can forward this to the appropriate person to address this concern.
This weekend I was biking with my son, going east on 1st St and entering Rogers-Binford campus by the playground. We were approaching the trail connection at the end of 1st street east of High St and I was largely focused on the road because it's a bit bumpy there. At the last second I realized there was a metal chain stretched halfway across the trail. I was able to slam on my brakes and skid to a stop, but it was quite a close call. The chain is not particularly visible and wasn't there the last time we went through. We came very close to getting hurt, and it seems likely that someone will get hurt if it stays as is. Someone going through at night is going to be in for a rough surprise. I understand you probably put the vertical post on a tire in the middle of the trail to discourage cars from driving through there and that seems fine, but please (please!) don't stretch a chain across the trail. Or if there's some critical reason that the chain is there, then at least hang a bunch of large bright flags from it or something.
Thank you!

I was walking my dog this morning on the trail at Winslow and High (I call it the goat farm, but am not sure if this is the correct name). There are signs all over about Pesticide use stating that it was applied on Wednesday and should be avoided until Saturday. Yesterday when I was walking my dog these signs were not posted yet and he (and I think many other neighborhood dogs) went in that area. I am concerned that the signs were not posted earlier as I would not have gone there to walk my dog. In the future could you post signs alerting that this will be done as well WHEN it is done?

on the b line trail, on the east side just south of
lamp post 7, there is a piece of rebar sticking up
about 1" out of the gravel. This is a hazard.
I expect you could use a small sledge and a punch of
sorts to push it well below the surface.

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.
