Reaching out potentially for more information. We have a lot of Residents who use this trail by our property at City Flats and they have continuously complained about the downed trees and brush around the trail and being a potential fire hazard. More information if this could be cleaned up or if there are limits would be appreciated! Email is best but I will happily speak to someone over the phone.
Dead beaver is still here. Look at the creek with your back to the little trailer in the farm's second pasture.

Where Sycamore Court, the Southeast Park Parking lot, and the trail going down to the tennis court come together there is a huge pot hole and the top of the trail is washed out.
A garbage can and plastic dog poop bag dispenser is needed at the East end of the B-Link trail.
Lots of dog feces on the B-Link trail are not being picked up by owners. This issue has been happening for several months, despite convenient receptacles. Is it possible to post reminders and/or encourage people to pick up after themselves?
Pictured above: the view from a bicycle seat as cyclist (on a bike path/sidewalk) approaches the circular loop at the southern end of the Grimes/Patterson parking lot. (Note: the problem I want to highlight is similar when cyclist is heading south towards that "roundabout" from the north on the bike/ped path). And the problem is this: a cyclist can easily not notice until too late that there is no curb cut to allow easy entry to the loop. YES, for safety reasons, the city probably decided NOT to be a curb cut there. Fine. BUT PLEASE, consider a very visible barrier so cyclists can see in advance that they should not proceed forward OR, at least, put some bright yellow paint or striped yellow-black paint on the curb as an attention grabber. Needed on both the south side of the loop and the north side. THANKS!
Observed a drum (as in musical) situation in the creek just south of the Switchyard skate park. Can see the drum from the newer path/metal overlook bridge.
We encountered a group of homeless men in the rail trail around 12:30 today. They had their belongings scattered around the trail and we felt threatened by them. We did turn back towards the parking area and continued towards Switchyard. As a senior, we feel our safety at risk Can you please contact someone to get the area cleaned up?? We haven’t been to that trail for a while and we’re disappointed to see the mess Thanks
Can the city do something about the very large homeless encampments on both sides of switchyard park - B-Line trail near the dog parks. I like to bring my dogs to the dog park, but am uncomfortable with such a big encampment of homeless so close to the park and the kids play grounds as well. There’s a lot of trash blowing around on at both encampments and this afternoon they had open “camp” fires burning. As a single women with my dogs, I have to say I’m very uncomfortable walking my dogs on the B-line in Switchyard park and using the dog park with so many homeless camping in the immediate area of Switchyard park. Thank you.
