Congrats on the Bryan Park Arboretum designation. A suggestion: a guide to all the trees, accessible by QR code to Park visitors. (Assuming you don't plan on physical IDs like the ones in IU's Arboretum). Perhaps include the trees along Sheridan Creek between Woodlawn and Highland(?). Would be a great educational resource. Some years you had a tree identification activity (submit IDs, get a certificate), intended for kids, but I enjoyed doing it.

Thank you for your suggestion. We have already created a free self-guided tree tour at Bryan Park to highlight some of the trees on site. The tour is available on our mobile app, OuterSpatial.
We plan to continue to add more tours and signs with QR codes in the future.
Please make that local too and user-friendly / intuitive. Somewhere on the City / Parks & Rec pages. Link the OuterSpatial thingie there, but honestly, i tried an experiment of looking for that info there. I didn't find anything except events.

Clarification of what i just submitted as case 206040
I meant I didn't find a tree guide "there" meaning the City / Parks & Rec pages. But neither did I with OuterSparial. I jniw that i found an online guide to wild plants (i think) in Switchyard Park.
For a tree guide template you might consider the updated guide to IU's tree "The Woodland Campus."

There are squares of what appear to be metal sheets that have been littered on the road of Kinser Pike near the intersection with country club dr for days. It’s highly trafficked by new high school drivers and poses a driving hazard.

Need pedestrian path marked on driveway of car dealer to connect sidewalk’s direction and to continue on sidewalk. Cars turning into this business are not aware of pedestrian right-of-way.
