Homeless man and friends congregating in the building and trades park - upper shelter house. Drinking most days of the week. I Have witnessed them drinking a case of bud lite as well as pouring a handle of liquor into their water bottles. This would not normally bother me, however I am a homeowner in the near vicinity. I have witnessed a decline in the amount of people bringing their kids to the park due to this increase in the homeless population as well as their increase in how comfortable they (I.e. Dogs off leash, air mattress, sleeping bags, etc). I have recently done a lot of work to my house and am worried that this activity in this park will affect my property value. I would appreciate if there was some way to address this homeless population in my neighborhood park. If there could be more patrols by the park at random times throughout the day as well as at at night (they sleep under the shelter house as well) I feel that it may help stop some of this activity.
As a young female; I am hesitant to contact the police at each one of these instances for fear of retaliation/they know where I live/may know it's me calling.

Man with mental health problems/perhaps schizophrenia every night and morning around 5:30 has seeming rages about God knows what - but screams and curses at the top of his lunges for hours at a time. Seems to have scared away a lot of families with young kids because there are less children in the park lately. Is there somewhere this man can be placed for treatment to help him obtain meds? More importantly - not live in our neighborhood park???

People park. This park is over run by homeless. It is not useable by others. More disturbing is seeing someone shooting up in evening when walking with family on Kirkwood. This is an unsafe environment.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Can you please contact the homeowner at 135 North Clark Street and have them trim the shrubbery that overhangs into the bike lane on East Seventh Street? This street is a designated, signed bicycle route and a major bicycle commuter connector. As it is, bicycles need to get into the traffic lane (no sharrows) to avoid the overgrown bushes. Thank you for attending to this matter.

We frequently walk the loop trail at Winslow park and it is becoming way too overgrown around the forested area on the East side of the park. The weeds grow over the trail at least a foot on each side of the trail, making the path single lane and very obstructed. Not to mention with the recent incident that happened at this park, it would be much safer to not have so much overgrowth around this area of the trail. I understand the environmentally friendly effort of letting some of it grow naturally like it is done at the Jackson Creek / Goat Farm trail, but at that trail there is still a buffer where it is mowed directly along the trail so it doesn't grow over the actual paved area. Please mow/cut this area off the trail so the full paved area can be safely walked upon. Thanks
