A vehicle drove through park of Park Ridge Park. The ground was apparently quite wet so the area of the park where the vehicle drove is quite damaged. The damaged location is the part of the park immediately adjacent to the Polly Grimshaw Trail and it needs some attention prior to the season starting in earnest to prevent further damage in that area from erosion on the now exposed ground. Also, some one dug out the the ground and mulch underneath one of the park swings significantly enough that there is quite a pit underneath the western swing and that area needs repair. As a somewhat different note which is more just routine maintenance, a plank on the wooden fence next to the trail head has come loose and fallen (on the northern part of the fence). Also, the leaves from the oak trees have not been removed or otherwise been blown away over winter. Previously this situation has lead to a lack of grass leading to significant erosion and damage to the park terrain. I am guessing the leaves should probably be removed soon, ideally in the fall. Last season, the parks team worked hard to mitigate this issue and it would be a pity to see hard work washed so to speak. On that note, I would like to thank the parks maintenance team for the quick responses to previous requests and concerns that have been made about this park and trail. Thanks a lot! I was really impressed with how easy the whole team was to work with as well as how responsive everyone was to the needs of both the park and the neighborhood. Thanks again!

The Bloomington traffic database reports 5 multivehicle accidents at North and Henderson in 2018 and 2019, all of them shortly before the 8AM start of class or after the 3PM end of class at BHSS. None were reported for 2020 when BHSS was online for most of the year. NO accidents are reported on the neighboring intersections of Henderson and E Miller, or Henderson and E South Rd, both of which have stop signs. To anyone who drives there, this is a much more dangerous intersection than the majority of intersections where 4-way stop signs have been installed. Indeed when one first uses the intersection one expects 4-way stop signs based on the usual Bloomington pattern for roads with prominent crosswalks, which makes the absence even more dangerous. Please fix this before my daughters start driving to high school next year. I'd prefer they walk but that intersection is even more dangerous for pedestrians.

One of the traffic lights on north-bound 46 is off at the intersection of 46 and Curry Pike. It's the traffic light in the middle that signals the center lane. The other two are working.

A large tree fell covering the path going up the hill just south of the newly constucted waterfall wooden path. It needs chainsawed to clear path.

A short stretch of North Woodlawn Avenue is very uneven and bumpy between East 11th Street and East 10th Street. Cars often drive in the bike lanes to avoid the bumpy center of the road.

The crosswalk between N and S Woodbridge Dr and across 10th is routinely ignored by passing cars. I have almost been hit around 3 times while in the crosswalk by cars that refused to stop for me as I was crossing. Cars otherwise refuse to stop when pedestrians are waiting to cross. This is a safety concern for pedestrians.

Pieces of adjacent retaining wall have fallen to the sidewalk, making it impossible for people who use wheelchairs to pass. It’s been this way for weeks. Thanks.
