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.
Pickleball nets at Switchyard parks are to high in the middle. Nets should be 36 in. on ends and 34 in. in the middle.When nets were taken down last time who ever did it probaply was not aware of this
Please remove the surveillance cameras. My family and I are extremely uncomfortable with them and avoid going to the park because of it. We would like to enjoy ourselves at the park but are unable to because of the excessive surveillance.
Please remove the Callery Pear trees. They are an invasive species and they smell bad. Please don't subject us to them next Spring, too.
Broken stone marker by park bench in front of Shumard Oak I can send pictures if asked: jhershey@gmail.com
Lots of trash, clothing, blankets, etc littering entire park. Social gathers > 15 people. People staying there past open hrs. (People sleeping in park). Don’t understand why this can’t be fixed...been ongoing issue for years. Taxpayers pay to maintain parks. City puts rules/regulations on public parks. However city doesn’t do anything to enforce these rules/regulations or maintain the park!
On west side of Winslow sports park by the old batting cages on the east side of the paved path, there is a 2’ x 2’ hole. In the attached pic, it’s in the yellow circle. About 5’ off the path. Hard to see. Very dangerous. I almost rode my bike into it. Needs to be filled.
