Broken glass on new path
Broken glass on new path
While walking through the park I observe acholic being consumed regularly. Empty alcohol bottles left on tables in pavilions. I changed my walking path at night because of unhoused sleeping on playground and at both pavilions. The park is becoming more and more unsafe.
Walking through the park this afternoon and found a used syringe NEXT TO THE PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT. I cleaned that and multiple empty/half full bottles of liquor and cans of beer up, as well as packs of cigarettes and other nicotine products, some of the boxes still had products in them. Oh and condoms. On the playground. We are spending a lot of money to upgrade this "park", it would be great if the city would do something about the junkies that have taken it over. Your "security patrol" came and timidly took some pictures with his phone to make it look like he did something, idk. We are begging the city to do something about the junkies, they are migrating in to the neighborhood and causing problems. Please spend some of that money actually cleaning this park up.
More uncapped needles on the playground. Trash everywhere. Restrooms a mess with needles. Please do something! More patrols, anything. It's getting out of hand, and making the neighborhood feel unsafe.
Broken glass on sidewalk, has been there for over a week
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
There is broken glass out in the road at the three way intersection of Buick Cadillac Blvd and Clarizz Blvd. There are encampments in Latimer Woods that are bringing this trash and glass out.
The greenway trail connection between south Bline and Bryan street/broadview neighborhood has not been maintained. There is thick snow on the path. I fell while biking my son home from school. We do not have access to a car, so biking is our only option. Why is there still snow on this high traffic area?
Water is bubbling up from the ground in two spots. Also sounds like air being squeezed out of something.
