I thought I reported this a few days ago but maybe not. Anyhow this is Bryan Park. Photo in the middle dates to January 19, about when this picnic table appeared. On the right shows it moved on Feb 6 (the uReport I thought I submitted). On the left this afternoon (Tues Feb 12). It is lightweight enough to be moved around. Makes me suspicious that someone other than Parks employee put it there. Odd time of year, too.

Bryan Park: please fill in these wo holes near the N end of the stream that feeds Sheridan Creek. A good landmark for finding them is that bald cypress in the background (further in background are the tennis courts). I have found holes in the Park over the years, sometimes by tripping and falling. I have sometimes stuck deadfall in a hole hoping that a Park mower might see it and take action. Now I am grateful that I can use uReport . Thanks.

Some of these swings in Bryan Park has been squealing for years. Need oiling.

This description of the Clear Creek trail has two errors:
20.8 acres stretching 2.4 miles from Country Club Drive past Tapp Road to Church Lane, and connecting to the existing Bloomington Rail Trail.
The trail does not start from Country Club, it starts from Tapp Road. It crosses both Rockport Road and That Road before getting to Church Lane.

All summer long every day except Sunday starting at 7:30 Bryan Park employees used leafblowers on the playgrounds for 15 or more minutes. These are a source of air and noise pollution. What was being cleaned up? Dust? Leaves? For those, push room are faster, more effective, and non-polluting. Please consider not using gas-powered blowers in city parks, at least in summer.

1. That Rd. parking lot. There is a Sycamore tree at the far end, near the handicap parking space and the bicycle rack, that is really starting to lean to the northwest. The trunk is rotting/decaying and looks to be about a 1/3 gone. You may want to consider taking this tree down.
2.The 2 security lights at the Church Lane parking lot are not working. Would it be possible to have at least one of them turned on? This would be beneficial, especially now that the trail is being extended south of Church Lane. I'm assuming that there will be more foot/vehicle traffic in the near future.
Thank you for your considerations.

Bryan Park, west side of the stream that runs into Sheridan Creek near the bridge just north of restrooms. PLEASE advise mowers to mow the ragweed that grows all along there. Last year what wasn't mowed grew 3-4 feet high, flowered, and released the pollen many people are allergic to. The whole slope down from the picnic shelter in the background is full of ragweed but it got mowed and nev0er flowered. Thanks!!

Wildflowers along trail in Olcott Woods. I was saddened to find this spring that placing lights along this trail involved digging up a considerable amount of ground along the trail that has been home to many wildflowers. It is now covered with clumps of clay soil. Is something else going to be done to prevent erosion and ameliorate the loss of the plants?
