Tree cleanup needed in the creek alongside the Clear Creek Trail between That Road and Church Lane. There were trees at various locations that fell into the creek from the trail side that the city owns. These trees cause a potential flood hazard and need to be removed. I spoke with City of Bloomington Stormwater and MS4 Coordinator and they referred me to report this to Parks and Rec to take care of the issue.
The trail at North of the community has been invaded by a homeless community. Close to Tom Winneger project.
Will the Rail Trail get some new gravel soon? Last Thursday I was on it for the first time since April and the wet summer has made it much more muddy.
Mountains of trash have accumulated along the trail behind my back yard.
There was evidence that someone is trying to live in the woods on the northern section of the NL trail at Griffy Lake. I hiked parked of this trail 8/26/16 and saw what seemed to be the beginnings of a make shift shelter as well as various Styrofoam to go containers scattered throughout this part of the trail. There was a man who was clearly not on a recreational hike on the NL trail who we saw multiple times before we decided to turn back and head towards the NS trail. The man had long brown hair, was clearly dirty and smelled strongly. He was young (less than 40 years old). We saw him several times on different parts of the NL trail and it was clear he was not hiking the trail in a linear fashion (possibly going of trail to cut to a different part?). The presence of this man plus the food containers/shelter seemed very suspicious and VERY unsafe for recreational hikers. Please have someone take a look out there to clean up the trash/take down the shelter. I have a attached an image marking the location of the food/shelter. Feel free to contact me with additional questions/concerns.
Mud and metal plates on construction-temporary-alt-route of clear-creek trail are dangerous to pedestrians and cycling especially when wet
The Clear Creek Trail near the bridge construction at Gordon/Fullerton was covered in mud at the detour of the trail. I was heading from That Road toward Rockport and had to turn around due to all of the mud covering the trail. That was Saturday 9/21/2024 at 9am.

The city website page on Jackson Creek is out of date and does not reflect the completed extension to Rhorer Rd. I could not find updated maps, and Google Maps also does not reflect the change despite the new trail being visible on aerials.
