An expansive plant is growing across half the trail the length of two Winslow Farm units. It needs to be cut way back to allow the entire width of the trail to be used. I don't think the Winslow Farms Association feels any ownership or responsibility for it.

Shrubs,weeds,brush and small trees have been cut down by someone and not removed, this area has also been sprayed with some type of Herbicide, that killed a lot of the grass, etc. In addition this trail was sprayed without any warning to the general public! Grass is being mowed along the trail without any attempt to clean up the mess made by whoever sprayed and cut the brush. This all needs to be cleaned up.

There is a large poison hemlock plant on the east side of the Pete Ellis Multi-use path, just before the Polly Grimshaw Trail crossing. And nearby, there is vegetation growing onto the multi-use path that reduces its width.

There are 15-20 shopping carts in the Latimer Woods, if you go down the trail you will continue seeing more trash, clothes, and shopping carts. The culvert down at the bottom of this trail is filled with trash as well. It would be fine if these were individuals just setting up a camp for themselves, but they are destroying the property and filling it with just trash. This morning when I was walking out there there was a broken vase that had been put out into the street too

Walking the trails and street line next to Latimer Woods and at the bus stop of E Buick Cadillac Blvd and S Clarizz Blvd I realized that there has been more trash filling in this area. There are now three shopping carts and some homeless encampments. The area has a foul smell. I walk this area almost every morning and this part of the woods has gotten worse with trash and encampments.

Run each morning next to the mall and the Latimer woods and there have been homeless encampments in the wooded area of Latimer woods for 3-4 months now. This morning it had a more unusual foul smell than usual, like the smell of something/someone dead. There is broken glass and trash throughout the woods and coming out of that area as well

The Rail Trail south of Country Club has some issues. There are large divots/depressions in the trail from the trees that fell in the June storms and the clean up. These depressions are difficult to see on the trail and are big enough and deep enough to be quite jarring on a bicycle. I imagine a runner or walker could get injured stepping into an unexpected hole as well. There are at least 3 or 4 of these depressions on the Rail Trail. Can the city get these leveled out? Please use a filler or fine gravel that matches the trail, not some large gravel sizes as have been done in the past on the Rail Trail repairs that create other issues.

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.

Mud and metal plates on construction-temporary-alt-route of clear-creek trail are dangerous to pedestrians and cycling especially when wet
