Please slash back the overhanging tree limbs along the wooded asphalt trail between Olcott Park and the lower goat farm area. People have to duck and weave to avoid branches.

Lock on restroom door on trail at Leonard Springs Park is broken. I thought I was locked in but eventually the door opened after turning the lock around several times. It took awhile to open it and I was almost called 911. Very scary and claustrophobic.

Another dog owner showed me where there are some small gaps in the fencing that could use some repair or extra reinforcing where a smaller dog or animal could get in or out. These gaps are straight back from the red fire hydrant.

Overhanging bushes make travel difficult, and even dangerous at night for bikers and runners. Beware the poison hemlock on the west end of the eastern part of the trail, just near the swimming pool. Sap can cause skin irriation.

Not a complaint! Thank you for letting fragmented eco-systems repair themselves. Letting living things grow and take back the areas that have been destroyed for sidewalks, side paths and trails. Animals, insects and plants are now taking back what was destroyed by fragmentation. This truly is tree city USA.

Please do not build more paved trails unless City is willing to take care of what is already built. Never build a new addition to a house that is poorly maintained.

Regarding biking etiquette in Bloomington...my husband and I walk the wonderful trails almost daily, through all the seasons. We are truly appreciative of these trails. We are perplexed and sometimes frightened by the lack of biking etiquette displayed on the trails. Almost daily, we are startled by someone passing us at a high rate of speed without any warning. I have nearly "fallen off" the trail more than once. I am grateful I have not sprained an ankle...or worse (yet) I know there would be some cost involved, but honestly, isn't pedestrian safety worth it? I have serious osteoporosis. If I am hit, unwittingly, by a biker who did not show the common courtesy of giving an "on your left" warning" in time for us to move quickly out the way, it could be life-changing for me and many other walkers, especially the elderly. How about a sign posted in a prominent place on each trail educating bikers of their responsibility to ride responsibly? Sure, they may speed past the signs, but perhaps if posted where they are getting ready to ride, they may read them and consider the safety of the walkers they are speeding past (and sometimes weaving around) Of course the same should be assumed for electric vehicles. Walkers need, and deserve, a fair warning of anyone approaching. Let's not let someone break a hip or worse before we address this. Thank you for listening and for the work you do to make Bloomington an awesome place to live! Eileen Caird
