Several weeks ago I reported that the park has too few trash cans. Having walked this park twice daily since the late 1990's, I suggest that the trend of decreasing the availability of trash cans has reached a ridiculous level. During this winter, it appears there will be only one spot for waste removal for dog waste. I did not get a reply before. Please return trash cans to the tennis courts and please add at least one regular size trashcan for folks who visit and eat in the park. When family visit from out of town, they comment on how weird it is that this park has so few trash cans.

Even on trails where there is no room for social distancing, maybe half the people there wear no masks--and no surprise, because the city has not posted a sign at the park to say to do so. I've reported this by phone to no avail. Does the city even care if people wear masks? Why is so little done to encourage it? Why do so many city workers work close to each other, often close to people out walking, without masks?

On the Bloomington Rail Trail where it crosses S Rogers St (at the horse farm) there are two sections of native trees planted by City Parks Dept and they are outgrowing their support wires (the supports put in upon planting). They all look great and have been successful but some are so big that the trunks have the wires growing right into the bark. Someone needs to cut the wires away and remove the support stakes in both sections. Thanks!

Hello,
Every day, people walk to the b-line through this area, that no one is sure if it belongs to someone's private property or the city. I write to inquire that if it is city controlled, to please install a friendly path to the b-line through this culdesac. It is dangerous for anyone trying to take the short cut to the bline. It is full of rocks and mud, and people still climb through it. I see this as a clear sign that an official entry passage should be enforced here, for everyone's safety and convenience in the neighborhood.
Thank you.

A tree on southside of road, between gate and parking lot, has partially fallen and is hung up on a tree on northside of road. Leaning enough to possibly prevent vehicles with bikes on top from going past.

Car broken into in Clear Creek Trail at Church Lane on Sunday, 3/26 at 2:15 pm. Two thieves, a man and a woman, smashed our drivers door window in the crowded lot, with people coming and going constantly. The sheriff told us this happens constantly in this lot. The escalation of crime in this lot needs deterrence. Why not put up cameras in the lot? Before someone is hurt, I believe cameras would deter these bold thefts before they escalate into robberies or worse.
