Loose bolt on basketball hoop at Switchyard: The south basket at the Switchyard basketball court has a loose screw that keeps needing replaced/tightened. As you face the basket, it's the upper-left bolt. A constituent has been voluntarily tightening it when it gets loose, but he wants it fixed. He said last time the bolt fell out and the washer was lost and had to be backordered/the basket was out of commission for a while. He said he's submitted some complaints before and it is still a problem.
Tree at Sare & Mill Stone Way damaged by contractor work and city work over several months. Looks like all the work is finally done. Tree needs to be taken care of please, i.e., proper trimming of broken and dangling branches, some are cracked making the tree vulnerable to critters and disease. Also, at least one branch is dangling in the line of traffic, it is not safe.
On Sunday 12/4 at about 12:00 PM, I went to use the Electric Vehicle Chargers in the Switchyard parking lot. The two chargers on the south side would not activate when I plugged the cables into my car. I tried both of them. The two north chargers were in use by other cars and appeared to be working. I did not see the power light indicator on the two south stations, so it might just be a switched off breaker or it could be something wrong with the stations. Regardless, it should be looked into.
The B-Link trail between S. Henderson and S. Walnut has no lights and is dangerous to ride after 7PM unless you have headlights, nevermind walking. I've been repeatedly surprised by wildlife while riding even with my bike headlights on, and have nearly crashed into the guardrail before. Please look into lighting the B-Link.
Several trees along the stretch of Smith rd by the stella ridge neighborhood are at risk of falling into the road
Broken tree overhanging path. Located along left side of paved path when walking north from the parking lot, past the strength machines, kind of across from the pitching warmup area.
The Twin Lakes Recreation Center continues to delay repairs on their turf field in places where the turf has worn too thin, in some places work all the way through to the concrete. We had multiple incidents in our league game this past Sunday where our players narrowly avoided serious injury because of this. Stepping on this spot the wrong way while running, or tripping or falling on it, can cause someone to tear the ligaments in their leg or break a bone. It's not easy to see when you're running fast, and not easy to avoid when you're playing a game on the field. We all have to sign liability waivers to play there, but we are also paying Twin Lakes to provide a safe environment, and this is not safe. Twin Lakes management said they plan to "have the company come patch once leagues are over. As bad as it has gotten we might move that up to spring break week." What does that do to protect our players for the next two weeks then? We need to do something about this spot now before someone gets hurt. Hundreds of people play on this field every week, including dozens of children on the youth soccer teams. What are they going to do to make it safe before the company comes to patch the field? Please respond so I know someone saw this. Thank you for your consideration. Best regards, Sarah Mosier 765-516-4862 s.e.mosier1@gmail.com
The turf field is becoming unsafe for those who regularly use it. We pay to rent that field out and are seeing more injuries due to missing turf, minimal turf, or very uneven repairs. This year compared to years past is claiming more leg injuries across a number of sports.
Turf is hazardous! There are large divots that can cause serious injuries to players. Please advise!
