Very dangerous hole 4 feet off Bryan Park trail.
Very dangerous hole 4 feet off Bryan Park trail.
About .5 mile into the rail trail is a large homeless camp (off Country Club) from the entrance. The sites continue to grow & pop up. There are multiple concerns with this. 1. Contamination with the water by litter, human waste, & drug paraphernalia. 2. Affects to wild life through trash & humans inhabiting their homes. 3. Land is affected by litter & drug paraphernalia such as glass pipes & needles. 4. There are safety concerns with children playing in the creek due to human waste & drug paraphernalia being in the water, they could get diseases from contaminated needles or step on glass pipes. 5. This is a dangerous location for the homeless as they are in a flash flood location. It has completely flooded out on 2020 & 2019. 6. Safety concerns with those using the trail or those who live in the neighborhood on the other side. One of our tenants contacted the police for fear of someone being outside of his home in the middle of the night. We have also noticed foot prints being outside the windows when there was snow on the ground. We can send additional photos it needed & have also reported to Rebecca Swift. I do believe others in the community are noticing & possibly reporting. Thanks Danny & Zella Taylor
Pothole
Two abandoned backpack in Bryan Park across the feeder stream from the backetball courts. Since at least Friday at 8 AM. Not moved till this morning. I reported to police dispatch Sunday morning. Maybe the officers zipped one open and decided to leave them?
Near the workout equipment on the northwest corner of the Bryan Park there is a hole (see picture). Someone put a metal "donut" over it to warn passersby. Seen Monday morning around 8. Your map location feature is harder to use it used to be.
Five of the trees in the Fergusan Park have been very damaged in the last few days. Can't tell if it was machinery, a chain with a large dog (doubt it for all five trees) or purposeful vandalism. At least one of the trees has deep gashes all around.
424 s. fess. broken glass on sidewalk and yeah on lawn
Sycamore Shelter - As of Saturday, March 6 at around 5:30 p.m., there was human feces on the ground near the fireplace. Additionally, there was trash left on the shelter's tables and in the fireplace. Waterfall Shelter - At the same time as above, there was a gentleman sleeping in the fireplace of the shelter. He appeared to be using this as his primary shelter/home. As a result from the trash, feces, and individual, both shelters were rendered unusable for families.
As I drive west on 3rd, and get in the lane to turn south on High Street, the green arrow is not visible. I know it is functioning, because the traffic facing me stops and waits.
