Does anybody know if there are plans to improve the "Bloomington Rail Trail", the segment between country club and that road? This year it's suddenly much worse than it has been...there are places that were washed out that got replaced with the wrong type of gravel (shoulda used some sort of "crusher run", imo) and there's even a big wash out that didn't get any repair at all.
Our sub division Northwood Estates has been having a lot of trouble with drainage. It seems that the easements have overgrown scab trees & brush that may be blocking some water but it also seems as thoug your drainage system that takes the water to a creek needs to be cleaned out. We back up to the golf course & have trouble getting the golf course staff to maintain our side of the course, ie mowing, weeds, dead trees along the road,etc. We seem to be a bit neglected when it comes to these problems. Could you please send someone to look at our problem. Thanks, Mary Pearson
Ferguson Dog Park. My puppy was bitten by a pitbull that was not neutered. I rushed my puppy to the vet, where I am currently, because he is bleeding from the wounds. I was unable to get the owner or dog's name, nor the car that they drove. I had not seen the pitbull or owner there before. I just want to report and make aware of the incident that occurred today, June 20th 2019, at around 1:30 pm.
The water at Ferguson dog park has been shut off. This is a pretty big problem because dog owners have been taking their dogs here to exercise them expecting that the water will be on to hydrate their dogs. There's no sign or explanation about why the water is off or when it will be back on.
There are multiple sections of the rail trail with large, loose gravel. This type of gravel is extremely dangerous for bicyclists. The latest section to receive this gravel is just north of That Road. Can the city look into having the large loose gravel removed, and replaced with the fine crushed gravel that used to cover the trail?

There were two big barrels on the north side of a utility pole. One of them is down by Rhorer Road; the other one is near where it's supposed to be but close to the creek rather than by the pole.
Barrel and cones in the creek instead of warning of utility poles and guy wires.
