West Smith Avenue, between Buckner and Davidson is eroding. There's trenches on either side. The storm drain at the corner where the stop sign is is sinking at least 3 feet down, it gets filled with debris, there's dirt and everything pouring into it, so it floods. Drivers are cutting corners on both sides, both sides of Smith. If you're traveling west, or if you're turning right onto West Smith, they're cutting a corner, driving over dirt in the yard, and that's contributing to more debris. Please consider this road for resurfacing.

The larger shelter at Building Trades Park looks like it will fall down any minute. I went there for a neighborhood meeting a couple weeks ago and am no longer comfortable scheduling our own neighborhood meetings in the park because it looks so unsafe

Frequent visitor to Building Trades Park reported many issues while setting up for a Labor Day family picnic. Two homeless men sleeping under the shelter and one sleeping on the ramp. Two homeless men locked themselves into the bathrooms for 30+ minutes, making the bathrooms inaccessible to anyone else. Left the bathrooms a wet mess, threw up on the side of the building. Visitor called police (non-emergency) and left after 35 minutes when police still hadn't shown up -- moved her family picnic to another location.

Homeless people camping in shelters in building and trades park - complete with air mattress, blankets, sleeping bags, bags. Have gotten way to comfortable. I've called central dispatch/non emergency police and nothing seems to happen. Would like to see lights under shelters in the near future to inhibit this behavior. I am a resident on Howe and am getting tired of seeing this and being kept up at night.

Man with mental health problems/perhaps schizophrenia every night and morning around 5:30 has seeming rages about God knows what - but screams and curses at the top of his lunges for hours at a time. Seems to have scared away a lot of families with young kids because there are less children in the park lately. Is there somewhere this man can be placed for treatment to help him obtain meds? More importantly - not live in our neighborhood park???

Homeless man and friends congregating in the building and trades park - upper shelter house. Drinking most days of the week. I Have witnessed them drinking a case of bud lite as well as pouring a handle of liquor into their water bottles. This would not normally bother me, however I am a homeowner in the near vicinity. I have witnessed a decline in the amount of people bringing their kids to the park due to this increase in the homeless population as well as their increase in how comfortable they (I.e. Dogs off leash, air mattress, sleeping bags, etc). I have recently done a lot of work to my house and am worried that this activity in this park will affect my property value. I would appreciate if there was some way to address this homeless population in my neighborhood park. If there could be more patrols by the park at random times throughout the day as well as at at night (they sleep under the shelter house as well) I feel that it may help stop some of this activity. As a young female; I am hesitant to contact the police at each one of these instances for fear of retaliation/they know where I live/may know it's me calling.
