Gordon Pk & Rogers St, Perry Township, IN 47403, USA
- Case Date:
- 4/6/2024
Shortly before 2pm I observed a small black SUV turn from Gordon Pike onto the Rail Trail crossing on the north side of the road, then head east on the multi-use path. The vehicle continued east toward the gravel road that runs parallel to the Rail Trail on its east side. I was driving and unable to take a photo. I have observed a similar vehicle parked at the homeless camps on City property back along that gravel trail. Can the City block this area so that vehicular traffic is unable to illegally drive into the homeless camps to remove the incentive to illegally drive onto the multi-use trail and Rail Trail? The homeless camps need to be removed as they are attracting all sorts of bad behavior and making the entire area less safe for anyone using the paths and trails. The City is allowing homeless camps on City property. These need to be removed all the way from Gordon Pike to Country Club Drive, and in Switchyard Park too.

While walking late last night (circa midnight) along the asphalt path around the parks, I noticed that someone had set up a small tent in the woods (last night, the tent was illuminated from within by the person's flashlight). It was just a few yards off the lower end of the path that cuts through the woods between Olcott and the Goat Farm areas, where the path bends (tent was off the outside of the corner) and comes into view of the small bridge over Jackson Creek. On previous nights, I've smelled a latrine odor in the same general area, so I doubt this was the first occurrence. Given that this is very near a popular wading stream and not far from the playground, I decided to report it.

Street trees here are still dead years after reporting. It was previously said these would be replaced a long time ago. Are they finally going to be replaced?

There is a hole at the base of the fence at Ferguson Dog Park. The picture does not really show how large it is but, my rather large, chubby beagle was able to get out yesterday.

Resident reports that the stop sign is difficult to see while approaching this intersection (Sare Rd/Canada Dr) southbound on Sare Rd, and would suggest putting up a "Stop Sign Ahead" to warn oncoming traffic.
Claims to have seen two cars slam on the brakes for this intersection recently, and urges that this issue be solved what with the new students coming in.

Several of the bridges on the trail at RCA park have severe damage. One of them has been broken for weeks, the other has several broken boards and has become unsafe in the last day. There is also a deep pot hole in the asphalt. I am sending pictures of the problems. I greatly appreciate what all of you do! Thank you!

The footbridge at the entrance to the trails is falling apart - it's probably one child jumping on it away from collapsing and causing injury.
