Trees down, blocking the Lanam Trail, not far from the Lanam Road trailhead.
There are two places on the trail leading from Lanam Road to Griffy Creek where large trees are blocking the trail making it difficult to proceed.

There is a pine tree on the corner lot at the northwest corner of Hillside and Woodlawn that is leaning dangerously toward Woodlawn. I drive past it a couple of times a week, and it has worsened significantly in the last few weeks. The rootball is visibly pulling up from the ground. I reported this via the CBU phone number a couple of weeks ago, but nothing has been done yet. I'm concerned the recent freeze and impending thaw will cause the tree to topple. Thanks for checking into this.
Why do City vehicles park in the bike lane instead of the street? Many times while riding my bike on 7th street this year, I have had to ride around City vehicles parked in and blocking the 7Line because the driver was watering trees or something. Firstly, it's much easier for a car to drive around a truck than for a cyclist going up a steep hill and more vulnerable than drivers to have to ride into oncoming traffic or try to squeeze around an enormous truck. Secondly, this sends the signal that the City prioritizes drivers over cyclists. I should hope that's not actually the case, but it feels like it. Why not park in the car lane? Either side would be by the trees that are in the median between the 7Line and the car lanes, and it wouldn't impact the safety of the City workers. But it does impact the safety of people on bikes, who are already at more risk of injury from crashes.
Is it possible to add some additional picnic tables at Schmalz Farm Park Shelter? There is currently only 1 picnic table.
Tree of heaven spotted in the park. Since they are spraying in the park for other things, this might be a good opportunity to stop this invasive species.
Sorry, that last issue was supposed to include more detail. The large tree is down here is at the roundabout sign on the Rockport Rd side of the Clear Creek trail. Thanks!
There is a family on ATV driving on the trail. I don’t think ATV is allowed and it’s dangerous
