I tried opening a ticket a few days ago about the need for a trashcan at the Switchyard Skate Park, but I apparently should not have put it under the ticket that relates to trash, as it simply got redirected to three different people and was then responded with a generic HAND response. This is city property. There is already trash beginning to pile up, and a lot of it is blowing around the construction. Please bring in a trash can. I would likely also be the one who will walk around and pick up the trash to put it in the bin.

Hi! I am concerned that the fencing going up around the dog park areas of the Switchyard Park has not been done right. The soil has not been backfilled around the post bases, and the fencing and sod are being finished anyway, leaving extremely large gaps under the fencing--large enough for my 40-lb beagle mix to fit under, as well as many other dogs. Just wanted to make sure those in charge know. I know it is a very large-scale project with many details to keep up with, but it seems much easier and more cost-effective for it to be fixed sooner (while dirt and equipment are still on site) than later (when the park is completely finished and people start losing their dogs under the fence). Thank you for your attention on this matter! Otherwise I am so excited about the park and it is looking great!

Parks and Rec Friends - We appreciated that you put down rock on the Creek's Edge Trail earlier this summer where one of the detention ponds drains. However, this past weekend's rains have washed the bulk of that rock from this crossing. We would appreciate a repair of this issue. Thank you!

The Switchyard Park skate park is finished, but there's still construction around it. This is the obvious reason it's still closed, but there is a plethora of kids that skate it every day and regularly get kicked out. This doesn't seem sustainable, and I would expect that it's only going to create ruthlessness and ignorance of the law in some of the kids.
Right now, it's schedule to be closed off all summer and fall until the rest of the park is scheduled to be finished in November. This seems unreasonable. It would take comparatively little effort to finish a small path from the park to the B-line and move the construction fence line to the other edges of the park.

Stop sign at the northeast corner of 8th and Fairview has been knocked partially down, and probably can't be seen by approaching motorists.

A newly placed construction sign at the corner of Curry Pike and 46 contradicts the no turn on red signs that have been posted for quite some time.
the new sign advises a yield when turning on red to those who are doing a u-turn. This indicates that a turn on red is permissible, again, in contradiction to the long posted signs.

The basement of Twin Recreational Facility consistently smells of sewage. We reported to staff who state they know but do not know the source and suspect it is related to sewer back up.
