At least two of the street trees by the west side sherwin williams dead. Near roundabout and adjacent road. Please replace with something that isn’t columnar. Columnar trees are terrible choice as they provide no shade for the sidewalks and road. Please work on this going forward.
Missing/broken ginkgo tree by Buick-Cadillac Blvd and college mall rd. Please replace!
Yesterday while hiking in the woods at RCA Park with my grandchildren There was a tent pitched back in the woods. Today in the same place the tent was gone but belongings including a backpack and shirt were there. There was also evidence of a campfire. A live tree had suffered damage from the fire. Please check into this. It is just off a major dirt path and visible from the path. Leaving their stuff there suggests they might return. I let BPD know. I am attaching photos here.
A branch is suspended precariously over rail trail a little south of country club road
Asi should keep their mouth shut and keep their opinions and prejudice to themselves I am a tax paying working hard working man I was came up a pond by two ASI security guys and they were completely rude shining lights in my face like I like it was some sort of police officers and I was doing some sort of bad and I was simply having picnic with my sister and they were shining lights in her face while she's trying to put her picnic baskets and things up and blinding her and blinding me being rude saying we was all kinds of things that were not and I really have a problem with this I want to keep doing this I will sue as I for prejudice I was recording it and I will use it in a court of law and they need to get some respect for everyone that is in the park or trails I might even be the next homeless or drug addict they're saying we was it simply dose not matter what they think they are looking at and shining lights in the face of it was so rude we will be filling out great grievance suits for the city of Bloomington and ASI security better whatch that My pen is still mighter than the sword always.
You mentioned the new traction strips on North side of Bryan Park. I think they r very bad because they are too tall and make walking/jogging hurt the feet and ankles due to height and are too “ bumpy” because of height. They should be flatter to not interfere. I’d recommend removing. I purposely now avoid that bridge or walk in grass
There is a tent pitched along the woods trail at TCA Park in the woods.This is not safe, hygienic, or fair to park users. Please, do something about this. Your park security is useless. They do not patrol the trails. Please do something about this. Worse city government in 50 years. Do you jobs that we are paying you to do. RCA should not become another Seminary or mimic what goes on behind Community Auto. I do not feel safe taking kids in the woods anymore. Camping is prohibited here. Enforce the law!
There is a dog off leash at the foundation of the old shelter house that was torn down. There really needs to be an animal control person at the park from time to time. Or security.
The unhoused community on the east side of the trail just south of the Switchyard dog park is causing some issues. This morning I was walking my dogs and noticed a dog running off leash, chasing down deer. It started to come towards us but its owner stepped out of the woods and grabbed it. The dog is obviously just being a dog but the owner needs to have the animal on a leash so it doesn’t injure anyone or get injured by someone who isn’t a fan of dogs. I did notice one of the deer limping.
There is an Ash tree on city property right next to the street light on Mulberry Drive that appears to be dying. The tree was struck by lightening last year and has been treated for Bore Ash disease. I would like someone to take a look at it to see if it's viable.
