Old tire in the creek area of switcyard park. Possibly washed down from elsewhere with all the rain we've been having this week. See marked area on picture of map attached for area. It's north of the splashpad, south of the skate park, in the stream bed between he east & west bridges on the B-Line
A tree limb and vines around a couple of wires leading to a phone pole. The vines are pulling the wires down. I am on home dialysis and my supplies come on a semi every other week. The truck almost pulled them down, since they are so low. Acutally that whole south side of the tree needs cut back, the City normally does that but hasn't this year. Thank you for your time.
I have been requesting that the City remove a very large, dead, Ash tree for over a year and a half. I have been put off and put off. Finally, I was told that it would be removed in November. It is now almost the end of January and it is still there and continues to drop limbs. As I have said over and over, I plan to be building in the Spring in range of the tree. Should it fall, it would seriously damage part of my new construction. I have diligently been trying to be proactive about this to avoid having to go through making repairs, filing claims, etc. Could someone please remove this tree and stump? I have already said that I am more than happy to reseed the area myself. I just need the tree removed and the stump ground.
One of the swings is broken

This is supposed to be a city park built for parents to take their children to be kids and have fun. I took my niece to the park the other day and found pills in one of the tunnels, needles in the bathroom and on the play area, powder on the ground in the water area (which the drugged up homeless said their buddy spilt his meth there). Then I found out that they are allowed to camp there. There are plenty of places for them to sleep and leave their remnants that isn’t in the path of innocent children. You’ve been mayor since 2016 and you know the homeless has become a bigger problem every year. We can’t go to a park in Bloomington without someone drugged up and laying across the tables, walking around cussing and threatening anyone walking by. Homeless at every stoplight claiming to be veterans. The parks are the worse and I will make sure that everyone hears what is going on at the parks and our Mayor is allowing this to go on. My comments involve the parks, restroom, picnic areas, playgrounds and water areas.
A garbage can and plastic dog poop bag dispenser is needed at the East end of the B-Link trail.
The transition here from the street (Sycamore Ct) to the side path running down to the South East Park Tennis courts is covered in a giant pothole and crumbling asphalt. This is very difficult to navigate with a stroller, and slightly treacherous if just walking on foot. Could this be repaired please? It's been in bad shape for several years now, and keeps getting worse.
Where Sycamore Court, the Southeast Park Parking lot, and the trail going down to the tennis court come together there is a huge pot hole and the top of the trail is washed out.
There are currently no no-smoking signs in the Upper Cascades park. My wife and I were there with our 1 year old daughter last Monday or Tuesday, and were unable to use the swings as two childless adults were smoking on the swing set and declined to move. Can prominent signage be placed to indicate the park/park system is smoke free? I would also update the park rules to be more layman friendly, as they primarily reference federal, state, and city codes (found here https://bloomington.in.gov/documents/viewDocument.php?document_id=7722). Thank you.
