This summer the city installed speed cushions and bump-outs in Park Ridge East along Morningside Drive. Native trees and shrubs were planted as part of this greenway improvement project. We experienced what seems to have been vandalism last night—the dogwood tree that the city installed in the traffic bump-out in front of our house was snapped off. It doesn’t appear to be the type of damage a deer would have caused (photo attached) which would be the only other explanation. Will the city be replacing this tree?

The city website page on Jackson Creek is out of date and does not reflect the completed extension to Rhorer Rd. I could not find updated maps, and Google Maps also does not reflect the change despite the new trail being visible on aerials.

Just a Thank You to Tim Street for addressing an issue. I wrote that I thought the folks landscaping the median on Sayre Rd should be afforded some "safety cones" or lane closings to prevent injuries. I noticed last week that cones have been added to protect workers. I really appreciate you reacting to my concern. Thanks so much.

Is there a way to protect pedestrians/bikers on the B-Line Trail by adding retractable bollards or something on the yellow painted line by intersections so that cars don't mistake the trail for a road? Thank you in advance for working towards a solution that will help improve the safety of all.

There is an abandoned non-electric bicycle along the south edge (downhill side) of the paved path between Sherwood Oaks Park and the Olcott Park parking lot. Another walker told me that it had been there several days.

There is a tree that looks like it is bending over the pathway. And I don’t know how strong it is, but if it does rain, I’m concerned about the safety of that tree landing on somebody.

No trash cans around the barn at all. Especially near the picnic tables. All trash has to be carried back to the small parking lot. Design flaw. Maintenance trucks can drive up to the barn. Put a couple trash cans there.

We were walking down the B-line trail north of Hopscotch and south of Kroger when we saw one of the security patrol mini trucks swerve at a high speed around two women who were walking south towards us. He seemed to be going way too fast for B-line traffic. I think the license plate number was MT415A. He swerved around us and sped south.
