Can the City go out to make sure the woods all along the entire length of the Rail Trail from Country Club to Gordon Pike are clear of homeless camps? These were all evicted previously and there may be people living on the City property again. This morning there were multiple men screaming and yelling obscenities at each other back in the woods along the trail. This is dangerous for everyone who uses the trail, as it is a secluded, wooded area that has had a ton of safety issues previously. This area has had fights, frequent searches for wanted people who have committed all manner of crimes, weapons have been found in those camps, and there was deemed to be a serious fire hazard. I have smelled some smoke recently, suggesting their may be illegal burning happening again. Do not let this problem continue, as it was already dealt with and needs to be routinely enforced. These encampments are a serious danger.

For the Urban Forester: the young tree that was recently planted at this location has a broken support. Maybe the contractor that planted the trees can fix it.

Side walk and Path not cleared as of noon Thursday 12/4 Side walk along S. Highland and steep path to Winslow Sports complex not cleared. Trail was mostly clear in park. This area is often overlooked by crew. It is a well used path from the south and bus stop and can quickly turn to black ice in this weather. It is also very narrow along street and often gets buried by plows.

Please install any sort of restroom at Sherwood Oaks Park. Our kids pee in the woods, we see other people going into the woods to pee all the time. I don't understand why there can't at least be a port a potty. I have made this same ureport before, maybe annually. It is a beautiful park that we visit frequently but to not have some sort of restroom is just ridiculous. I hear about Bloomington Parks and Rec being one of the top in the nation, how can that be true - when you have to pee in the woods it feels like a 3rd world country. The skate park at upper cascades has a nice port a potty, why is that an option there but not at this beautiful park where families spend time?

If you go to the parking lot and walk down the trail through the woods, where the trail curves above the creek, someone has put a city trash can on the bank and set it on fire.

On Saturday, November 22, 2025, during the farmers market this morning, I observed at least 3 different kids on electric motorcycles traveling at a high rate of speed along the B-Line Trail through Switchyard Park. The motorcycles are not e-bikes as they appear to have no crank arms for pedals and the kids are not pedaling. They are racing through the park on the trails with complete disregard for the safety of others. There was also a kid on a gasoline powered motorcycle riding on the B-Line Trail. Can the city police enforce the illegal riding of motorcycles, electric or otherwise, on the trails in town? The use of electric motorcycles on the trails should not be permitted.
