I saw this Walking with Ease sign at Bryan Park. For people with arthritis or poor balance or impaired vision / hearing or other such issues would walk around the asphalt paths with greater ease and sense of safety if some "Cyclists Yield to Pedestrians" signs were posted. This is especially true of the path through the middle of the park, which connects cyclists between the Allen Street Bicycle Boulevard and the Southdowns bike-ped lanes. I would suggest a sign at each end of that path, on the the Henderson and Woodlawn sides. I walk there frequently with my dog and friends. Cyclists approach from in front and behind. We pedestrians usually make room and sometimes the cyclists do. Sometimes they let us know when they come up from behind, but not always. Some signage could end the confusions over right-of-way. Keep in mind that the mid-path curves. That is pleasant and would be safer if cyclists slowed down and anticipated other users. Defensivei cycling, the cycling version of defensive driving. Thanks!
On Saturday, November 22, 2025, during the farmers market this morning, I observed at least 3 different kids on electric motorcycles traveling at a high rate of speed along the B-Line Trail through Switchyard Park. The motorcycles are not e-bikes as they appear to have no crank arms for pedals and the kids are not pedaling. They are racing through the park on the trails with complete disregard for the safety of others. There was also a kid on a gasoline powered motorcycle riding on the B-Line Trail. Can the city police enforce the illegal riding of motorcycles, electric or otherwise, on the trails in town? The use of electric motorcycles on the trails should not be permitted.
The two trees next to 2704 and 2702 have rot and limbs are breaking off. My neighbor was hit in the head by one of the falling limbs.
There are two billboards on this parcel N of our neighborhood entrance on N Walnut St to the W beyond the chiropractor’s office. It appears this parcel was once owned by Hoosier Outdoor Advertising so, I’m presuming that once Steve Ferguson obtained it and Parks and Rec is now the owner that both of these billboards can be taken out and until that might happen at least the one with the lights can have those deactived along with any service. It would be perfect if this area would then be able to gain native trees to add our Tree City USA canopy and Haskell Smith would be able to increase our diversity with new trees followed by native shrubs et al that will be most welcomed over any likely invasive bush honeysuckle et al along this main coordinator into our City and from the N into Cascades Park along the E side of Old State Rd 37 or Dixie Hwy. Thank you for letting me know if I can provide any additional information that might permit this prime cooridor becoming most appreciated and greatly improved with native trees and plants stepping up our Greenspace cooridors W and E along N Walnut Street. Thank you!

Hello! For accessibility purposes I am requesting a permanent trail marker on the rail trail pictured. It can be challenging for some individuals to navigate to the entrance and exit of the rail trail pictured. This entrance is behind 433 w somersbe, however I am requesting a marker on the public trail to denote what portion this is on the trail. It would be greatly appreciated if this marker included large characters for the visually impaired. I appreciate your review of this request and consideration. Thank you.
Hi, I requested the removal of a tree near my house and was hoping for an update, that was ticket #203710. Thanks!!
There's a street tree on the Southside of 1st Street just east of Henderson that is leaning. It might be pulling up out of the ground a little. Maybe worth checking on it before it becomes a hazard.
