There is another homeless encampment going up right along the Clear Creek Trail just south of it's intersection with Gordon. I walk this alot with my young kids and play basketball in the Unitarians parking lot right there, and it is trashy and unsafe. It needs to be removed.
I previously reported a developing homeless encampment along the Clear Creek Trail just south of Gordon Pike along the Clear Creek under #188290, but the response said it was on private property. According to the county GIS, it is public property owned by the City. Thus, I think it should be addressed.
Sign near church lane points to trailblazer challenge on OuterSpatial but only thing under challenges is about fishing We believe the sign mentioned is located where the Clear Creek Trail turns into the Limestone Greenway. The Trailblazer Challenge yard sign belongs to Monroe County Parks and Recreation, who also use the OuterSpatial mobile app. Monroe County Parks has not updated their app challenges in a while. Nat Resources Coordinator Rebecca Swift contacted Monroe County Parks Assistant Director John Robertson so he is aware outdated yard signs are still out on their trails.
Light #140 on B-line flashing
Weed and brush overgrowth on West side of the B-Line, between 2nd and 3rd street, is getting very heavy again. Understand this is something that is normally cut back twicw a year, in the Spring and Fall. Please look into doing the Spring cut-back as soon as feasible. Thanks.
There are a number of trees down between the starry view entrance to rca park trail and the summit elementary entrance- thought it was just one, but it seems like 3-4 larger trees blocking the path
light 85 on the B is out.
End of the cascades sidepath at griffy lake dam parking lot. There is a removable bollard, and when it is removed, this is what is left. It will damage your bicycle if you don't notice it. It's especially scary if you're towing a kid trailer (like I was). It's vicious. The ones in cascades park itself are really bad (a significant bump if you hit them, and its barely wide enough for my trailer to go beside them), but nowhere near as bad as this one at griffy. The ones on the b-line are much better, for cyclists.
Construction on old 37 through cascades park (completely closed between gourley and lower cascades) ruins the only low-stress bike route north of town, offers no detour. When a crucial bike connection like this is out of commission, it is essential to offer a usable alternative, or to preserve a route for cyclists. The alternatives (kinser, walnut, dunn) have high speed traffic and no bike or ped facilities whatsoever. I realize it's insane that parks is responsible for transportation infra but that's not my choice and I wish you'd take the responsibility seriously. My kids wound up in a bike trailer on #$@! Kinser today just to access park facilities (griffy lake). When old 37 is open, its actually a great route all the way from my house to griffy. Drivers have a ton of alternatives but cyclists are high and dry. Thanks!
The 3 concrete pylons at the steps leading from S. Morton to the B-line, and another 3 where S. Morton dead ends at the Convention Center park lot, are looking poorly. They used to be painted a nice yellow each year, but there's been no mauntenance for at least 2 years. These serve as gateways to our neighborhood. Thank you.
