We're moving into yet another period with dangerous heat indexes, and the water fountains at Southeast Park still remain off. Can these please be turned on ASAP?

My understanding is the City FINALLY was going to open Cascades road back up for some road traffic from the South. Took my family in the car today. Nope. When is this happening? Why is a park in the city harder to get to than the area lakes? Why do you make an awesome resource difficult to access to people like my family and kids? We waste our time, gas, and pollute the environment to travel extra miles and cut through pedestrian presence on the golf course why exactly? Open the road up. City parks should be accessible and open to the whole public without an obstacle course. So sick of these antics.
The City owns TWO Historic Buildings. The Waldron AND The Banneker. One serves white residents. The other serves Black residents. One is getting a $500k renovation. The other desperately needs roof, HVAC, windows, flooring, masonry and drainage repair. Recover forward should honor ALL residents of Bloomington. Black and white. Invest in The Banneker.
Update ice rink website. Didn't say closed online. Planned a big event and then told a private event is keeping us from attending. So apparently money talks and private events keep the public away now? Easy to update a website and not waste everyone's time. Lots of people came and were frustrated.
Grass clippings! Hazard! The southbound lane of Woodlawn along Bryan Park has grass clippings all over the right 1/3 or 1/4 of it. The park got mowed and a city employee left grass in the road. This is a danger to all the cyclists, motorcyclists, and scooter riders. Can we get that mower operator a leaf blower? This happens routinely around the park and on Sheridan and Southdowns in the multi use paths. Very careless and dangerous for the city to leave debris in the road.
This very large maple is being strangled by ivy vines. I believe it is a city tree on city property. Somebody out to rescue it from a slow death. In the background is the mausoleum in Rose Hill Cemetery.
A very large sycamore tree on city right of way is being strangled by winter creeper. This tree is across the street from Kleindorfer's Hardware. Seems a shame to let this very old and very large state tree die because of neglect.
A very large and old sycamore tree is in need of attention. It has an invasive tree growing too close to and underneath this very fine example of a sycamore. I believe it is growing on city owned right of way.
Just wondering if there is actually an Erin Hatch that works for the city?? I noticed including my ureports that were assigned to her way over a month ago about city tree trimming has not been addressed. So I'm not sure if she doesn't work for the city and it's not being assigned to no one. Or someone isn't really doing their job. Thanks for your time.
On the webpage that describes the features of each City Park, Crestmont Park has nothing listed. As to avoid the appearance of bias against the low-income (ahem!), please fix this. Thank you. https://bloomington.in.gov/parks/parks
