Goat Farm Trail, near Sherwood Oaks Park (This is a separate issue from the large tree that fell by the shelter): A large tree branch has snapped and is precariously hanging over another tree, posing a risk of falling/taking both trees down. The tree is is alongside the East side of Goat Farm Trail, across from the playground at Sherwood Oaks Park. It is between the playground and the tree break. I wouldn't say it is an emergency, but it should probably be removed just in case.
Thanks!

There appears to be Johnson Grass growing along the Jackson Creek Trail, north of Rhorer Road. There is a small bit on the west side of the trail, just north of the farm. There is much more on the creek side of the trail across from the farm. Johnson Grass is very invasive.

Hello!
First, thank you for being one an absolutely cherished and wonderful part of our city. Parks and Rec does such great work!
On the Jackson Creek Trail between Sherwood Oaks Park and Olcott Park, just past the bridge as you head up the hill on the way to Olcott Park, there is a Sycamore Tree leaning over the path, and a smaller tree has fallen and is leaning on the Sycamore. Would you mind having Urban Forestry check that out please? There are so many people who use that path between the parks.
Thank you so much for all that you do!
Sincerely,
Bronwyn Shroyer

Graffiti on rocks and under overpass. Between July 5 and July 8, 4 or 5 very large rocks on the edge of the creek have been sprayed with bright pink and blue paint: FUCK something, cross HMC, and other marks. This can be seen by starting at the small parking lot off Moore's Pike (East of Tennis Courts) on the paved Trail. The large rocks are about half way to the overpass on the creek bank at one of the prettiest spots on the creek. This is farther east than the small bridge that leads up to Southeast Park playground. The black and blue (?) painting on the underpass has been there for at least a week - in black: FUCK BPD among other things.
I think there is something new since 7/5 above the entrance to the underpass that includes MOE.

There used to be No Tresspassing signs here after more people started going out on trails during the lockdown. Many people still think it’s part of the park. Few city people know the purple paint means the same thing. Owners of both sides of the property line must agree to use paint instead of signs. Did the city really agree to this? One guy on the path down from Olcott thought the paint marked the BHSS cross country course. If he really wants to keep people out he needs to invest in maintaining real signage or fencing.
