The playground structures at this park are in really poor condition. The rubber surfacing is falling apart, and the equipment is quite degraded. It needs to be replaced. When is this playground scheduled for maintenance/ replacement?

Hello, I'd like to suggest that the city pave the Bloomington Rail Trail connecting the B-Line to Clear Creek Trail. This would make it much safer and better for bicyclists (especially commuters). Currently, the gravel is too deep in some places and not present at all in others. Also, some of the posts at the entrace to the Rail Trail after crossing roads are too close together for a bike with a trailer to safely maneuver. This is especially true when crossing S Rogers near Baywood Drive. We broke our bike trailer there.
The Winslow complex has one trash can available outside the softball/baseball fields and one small receptacle for dog waste. Soon the trash can will be pulled behind the locked fence as it is every winter. The small trash cans on the tennis courts were removed this year. We need more trash cans available outside the fields and year round at this complex. This issue keeps getting worse every year.
The tail's light with number 152 is out on the B-Line Trail. Thank you for such a great trail and for all the maintenance that is done.
Social gathers > 15 people not allowed per mayor! 30-50 people there with no mask on 10/13. Also tons of trash, clothing, blankets, tents, etc abandoned in park.
A fitness organization called Bloomington United for Fitness is holding an exercise class in Olcott Park. I appreciate the need for outdoor space, however, they are using the paved trail for stationary exercises. Since these occur in one relatively narrow space, it is not possible to socially distance and because they are exercising, they are not wearing masks. Would it be possible to ask them to move to an area with more space in the park such as an open field not next to the path?
Hello, I've been trying to book a place for the past week to hold a gathering after i lost someone in my family and i've talked to a few different people to try and book this and ive hit a road block every time. I've asked for help to resolve this matter in a few different ways and the solution is to drive over an hour to book and pay and drive back over an hour to there convenient to make it easy for the person helping me / or not helping is what would say. I think there should a more convenient way that someone on your side of the planet could help other than to say [ no there is nothing i can do] this is a sorry excuse for convenient< id like to know who that convenient word applies to y'all only. bull crap. i can only pray this is resolved ASAP
There are a couple of trees I am concerned about. They are on the parks property but are leaning towards my house. These are good sized trees that I am afraid would do considerable damage to my house and shed. I have reached out several times but unfortunately nothing has been done. I spoke with Lee Huff directly before he left his position with the city. He said they would take a look at it. I don't know if they did. Since then, the trail behind my house (where the trees are located) has had significant work done. I am afraid this may have compromised the root system and made the trees more unstable. Last spring, we had a number of trees fall in this area with a neighbors shed being a causality. I am hoping this can be taken care of so I don't suffer the same fate. Thank you for your time.
