A tent city has developed on the B-Line Trail, south of W Country Club Dr and north of W Gordon Pike. They are cutting down foliage for more tents and dogs are running loose.

The trail surface on the old railroad bridge over 3rd St got tagged with orange spray paint last night. Most of the tagging is words but on the south end of the bridge we now a community art work that is 4-5 foot long male phallic image. Seriously as I biked by there this morning a mother and daughter were walking their dog north on the trail and were just about to encounter the "artwork".
Two tree falls hanging across trails. One between bottom of steps and wetland deck. Other on dam trail spur.
A campsite has been created in the Griffy Woods, just south of the North-most entrance to the trail system on Dunn street (south of the top of the hill/Dam). A path has been cleared off of the trail to the campsite area and a large area has been cleared for the campsite. There is a tent set up with gear, etc. present.
Graffiti on rocks and under overpass. Between July 5 and July 8, 4 or 5 very large rocks on the edge of the creek have been sprayed with bright pink and blue paint: FUCK something, cross HMC, and other marks. This can be seen by starting at the small parking lot off Moore's Pike (East of Tennis Courts) on the paved Trail. The large rocks are about half way to the overpass on the creek bank at one of the prettiest spots on the creek. This is farther east than the small bridge that leads up to Southeast Park playground. The black and blue (?) painting on the underpass has been there for at least a week - in black: FUCK BPD among other things. I think there is something new since 7/5 above the entrance to the underpass that includes MOE.
Person has been camping in Griffy Nature preserve for weeks and there is trash collecting around this site. Also posted a "no trespassing" sign.
Homeless encampment off B line trail.
Someone has cut a hole in the railroad fence in this approximate location on the Grimshaw Trail. The picture shows the hole and the insert is the nearest utility pole to the east of the damage.
I'm not sure this is encroachment on the Rail Trail but it's fairly close. This is about .5 mile south of Tapp Rd.
Limb down on the Rail Trail about 1/2 mile south of Country Club.
