Herbicide / pesticide application at Olcott Park
Herbicide / pesticide application at Olcott Park
I would like to know who is in charge of taking care of the fringe area between the Cascades golf course & the service road that abuts the properties of Northwood Estate? It seems that there is a dead tree covered over with scrap weeds, baby trees, poison ivy & all along that service road it has been really neglected. I used to walk across to walk. I cant anymore. It has gotten much worse this yr.
People's Park grass and weed overgrowth throughout the park.
I've noticed the systematic cutting of the wild grape vines throughout the Griffy Nature Preserve. These are native Indiana plants used as food by wildlife, not an alien invasive species. Why are these being cut from the nature preserve? Shouldn't this area be allowed to remain as wild as possible?
There are low hanging branches on the trail through the middle of Bryan Park. There's an especially low one just east of the wooden bridge, but there are others that require ducking. There is also vegetation coming in from the creek side that should be pruned back.
A water fountain has become stuck, unusable in current state.
I forgot to report this a week ago. A picnic table from the Woodlawn Shelter was out in the park. Walk west north west from the Woodlawn Shelter and you'll see it.
I have a very old soft maple tree in my front yard. I would like to have it pruned but am unsure of who's responsibility it is for 2 reasons: 1 being there are major power lines that are resting on the limbs (close to the trunk of the tree) and 2, I believe the tree is located within 6 ft of the city street and was told that the city owns the 6 foot easement between streets and properties? I would like to have it pruned evenly because of tree's age and weight distribution. Could someone contact me about this?
Clear Creek trail - about 1/4 mile from Tapp Rd trailhead. Dog waste trash can is overflowing and out of bags.
