I took my 5yr old daughter to the park restroom and there was a used syringe in the trash bin. It was out in the open laying on top. The bathroom was a wreck. I told her not to touch anything and not to use the bathroom. This is 2nd time in two weeks 2 different parks. We have to do something. Next time I experience this I will send photos to the Bloomingtonian and the local news. Maybe take the monolith money and spend it on some type of safety at these parks.
Sincerely
One pissed off Dad!!!

You have sent me the same generic message twice now. I guess until some 5 year old gets stuck by one of these dirty needles, there will be no action. Atleast put some dirty needle cans somewhere then. But thanks again for the same message. You truly don't give a shit..thanks again

Hi, I had a problem with my bicycle this morning (bad flat) and had to chain it a tree in the parking lot near Bryan Park., E. Southdowns Drive. I had to run to work to man a busy service desk. I don't think it is in the way of anything but I wanted to let you know. I will try to leave work early today and get it and wheel it back home. At worst, it will be removed by the end of the day. Apologies, I didn't want to let you think that I had dumped it there.

Active construction site with no visible permit present. Alleys have been blocked off in both directions. Are there % greenspace requirements for new construction? It appears they have dugup the entire lot. Are there onsite parking requirements for the number of tenants expected? The on-street parking places in this neighborhood are already full of cars. Is there a height restriction? Will there be or has there been an opportunity for public comment about any proposal for this site? Will the number of parking passes issued be limited to the actual number of residents? This all seems a bit third-world...

Hello-
Car blocking the bike lane on Washington between 4th and 3rd Sts 11/6/23 7:33pm IL plate: ZZM439
With the time change it's a little more difficult for me to get a good picture, but I'll keep sending these so you all so you can keep tabs on how regularly cars are parked in this bike lane and maybe figure out something to do about it.
thanks again!

There are some new safety concerns since the "Relato" building opened next to the multi-use path between Pete Ellis and the bypass on 7th Street.
First, there's a conflict point where the garage exits to 7th street. Cars are already pulling quickly across the path towards the street, while bike traffic doesn't necessarily slow for the blind corner of the garage exit either.
I've included a photo of a location where this is handled better. This is from the new development on the old K-Mart lot which also has a garage that immediately crosses a bike path. At that location, green boxes with white chevrons appear where the bike and car traffic cross, indicating to both parties that it's a conflict point.
------
The second safety concern is where the multi-use path takes right-angle turn around the corner of the Relato. This used to be an empty field with great sight lines and now those sight lines are blocked.
At this corner I have already seen what could have been a couple near collisions due to the shortened sight lines.
A treatment that could help here would be what was done at the right angle turn going into the bypass underpass tunnel-- Add a solid center line going around the corner to indicate that parties in both directions should stay in their lane going around the corner. I feel that treatment has made the underpass corner safer and I think it would help signal safer behavior here, too.
Thanks!

My kids are caught up in the midst of what i would call "legal" kidnapping. Currently, they are in the Care of DCS (ELIJAH KNEPPER is my case worker) , who objected to my daughter having a forensic interview at Suzies Place following some concerning actions that led me to believe she was being sexually abused. she is four. DCS lied to me about the disclosures she made. they lied about it in court. and they are continueing to allow the person who allegedly touched her to continue seeing her. The dcs case is paid for and entirely frivilous. after my daughters forensic interview a hearing was held in which they modified her fathers visitation to supervised in an emergency modification hearing, but they claimed the reason was because he let me visit my kids on one of his visits. But really it was because he molested our daughter. I CAN LITERALLY PROVE EVERY SINGLE THING IM SAYING and whats crazy is NO ONE CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT because i have called literally EVERYONE UP TO THE WHITE HOUSE and WHY IS THIS STILL A THING. GET ME MY CHILDREN HOME SAFE!!!! OR A PAID ATTORNEY LIKE YESTERDAY. Placement for my kids paid 12 thousand dollars for an attorney, Kendra Gjerdingen, who advised them the only legal way to take my kids was by means of a dcs case. they then set me up to be arrested, for a phony OWI and i havent seen my kids in 12 weeks. Placement also paid for the attorney representing DCS. SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE has to care that this is how our CHILDREN ARE TRAFFICKED AND MINE ARE NOT FOR SALE. Thanks for reading.
