I'm wondering if there's been any thoughts about developing a mountain biking loop around lake griffy? I'm sure that we could get some volunteer and local business support for building and maintaining something and maybe work with the university on a mtb'ing club who could also be trail stewards. Additionally, maybe some trail connectivity through that area could enable realistic bike commuting to Marlin Elementary. I don't think anyone wants to take their child on a bike down Griffy dam hill or old 37. I would be interested in meeting with someone and getting back into public service if a champion of the idea was needed. Thanks!

I found a syringe just a foot or two off the B-Line Trail in a clump of spearmint growing behind the orange building at 7th and Madison. Ironically, the syringe was orange too. I left it there, because I am not trained in handling syringes, but it should probably get picked up and disposed of properly.
Thanks,
Yael

While removing the bush honeysuckle from behind this guard rail and into the preserve the erosion from stormwater runoff was noticed. How can we look to mitigate this drainage issue? I can email a photo and video but, attempting to submit it in this report isn’t working.

Was sitting on bench in Park Ridge East Park the other night at the tennis courts (is on the south side of the courts) and noticed the seat is deteriorating (peeling and rusty; go take a look). As it's the only one there, could you please see to it that it gets replaced? Fixed is fine but doubt it can be fixed. Thank you! It's awesome to have great neighborhood parks in town.

Wish list:
We would love a fence around the baseball diamond! Currently balls often get lost in the tall grass/trees and roll down the hill. If a fence is not possible, could a perimeter mound be built so that when balls near the end of the field they slow down and don't go further.
On the tennis court, a solo practice bounce wall would also be awesome so that kids/adults could play alone if a partner is not available.
Lastly, could a pet dish attachment be added on the water fountain.

Erosion to the north of the access stairs is causing rock to accumulate at the bottom of the trail. Not only will the original problem (the erosion) get worse if left unmitigated, but the rocks are catching skateboard wheels etc of children playing at the park and on the trail, creating an unnecessarily dangerous situation.
