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.
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
The back of the Winslow Sports Park trail is overgrown, by the woods and behind the tennis courts. The weeds are growing so large that the trail is cut in half. Please mow to help keep this trail safe and clean! Thank you!
Schmaltz Park in the Hyde/Kensington area: hornets gathering in the small maroon children's playhouse.
The east-west trail running through the middle of Bryan Park needs to be significantly wider. This is a critical connection in the signed Allen-Covenanter bike route, but very awkward to ride on. Passing even a single person walking (not to mention groups, dog-walkers, kids, etc) is uncomfortable for all parties. When I come up behind someone am I supposed to ask them to walk in the grass or do I make them feel like they're in the way by trying to bounce around them in the grass? I'd avoid it, but the alternatives of either Grimes or Maxwell are scary. Please widen this connection to make it functional and comfortable for both transportation and recreation purposes. Thank you!
Graffiti on the connector path from B-Line to 9th St Park trail.
The water fountain at Park Ridge East Park is continuously running.
there is a blow up mattress with people sleelung on it in the building and trades shelter house.
Homeless people camping in shelters in building and trades park - complete with air mattress, blankets, sleeping bags, bags. Have gotten way to comfortable. I've called central dispatch/non emergency police and nothing seems to happen. Would like to see lights under shelters in the near future to inhibit this behavior. I am a resident on Howe and am getting tired of seeing this and being kept up at night.
There are some low hanging branches hitting our school buses at Cottage grove and Adams St. Thank you for helping us with this.
