There are two dogs in a homeless camp tied up. They are barking at all who want to use the park including me and my leashed dog. This is not safe. I feel afraid to use the park trails. They are at 39.14547Nx86.55090W
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.

Clarification of ticket# 190254 Hidden homeless encampment of 2 people. Located in woods at corner of “The Crossing @ PeteEllis”, 812-339-1400. This spot is a heavily used Pete Ellis pedestrian crossing that should be free of distraction and threat.
Homeless harassing park patrons. They are also stealing power from an outlet on the pole in the north east corner of park. They have piled up trash in that corner of the park as well.
At the north end of Park Ridge Park where we have been clearing invasives, just off the Polly Grimshaw Trail before it turns west and goes along the railroad, a pallet appeared among the winter creeper and bushes last week. I saw it on the 11th. It appeared to be over the boundary, and so on the property of The Crossing. On the morning of the 18th, there was a blue tarp on a mound on the pallet. I am guessing that someone is sleeping there, but the tarp stayed quiet and unmoving while I was there. The city may not be concerned since it does not appear to be on park land, and nothing has happened, but just in case someone keeps track.
there's a very dead tree smack in the middle of the playground — between the swings and the slides. very hazardous.
Gravel in sidewalk and street, Falling hazard.
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.
