Parks & Playgrounds

2300 E Canada DR

Case Date:
7/19/2025

Safety hazard: There is Exposed barbed wire on the edge of the playing fields. Along the eastern edge where the fields meet the woods, there are several lines of barbed wire. They have been there for decades, but I recently saw a person get cut from them when they went into the edge of the woods to retrieve a ball. It is particularly dangerous starting at the press box and walking north along the woods - about 4 feet in from the playing fields. In some areas, it is a single piece of barb wire about 3 feet off the ground – easy to run into. In other areas (behind one set of bleachers) there is more of it in coils on the ground. Towards the northern edge where the field meets the woods, it is farther into the woods and it is a fence. I think it would be in the City’s and the community‘s best interest to remove this to avoid further injury. I suggest staff scan the entire line to make sure they get it all and don’t miss the pieces that are hidden by growth. These are the coordinates for a section that is on the ground and hard to see; 39.12601° N, 86.50944° W (In one photo I took of the barbed wire it is almost impossible to see because it blends in with the sticks.)

Trails

4301 S Rogers ST

Case Date:
7/19/2025

Not sure if this is your jurisdiction or not. It is where this trail crosses South Rogers, a little north of That Rd.. When driving north on Rogers, drivers cannot see pedestrians, or runners who are headed south. The trail meets the road at an angle and there are bushes which block any view of oncoming persons until the driver is right at the trail. Just need to cut back the bushes.

Scooters, Bike-share and Related Issues

916 N Lindbergh DR

Case Date:
7/20/2025

I was told by Rhonda at Bloomington housing authority that the construction project taking place in our courtyard on Lindbergh will be a covered structure for bicycle parking. My concern is if motorized vehicles like scooters and motorcycles park there, the c shape created by the three tall apartment buildings surrounding the courtyard already create an amphitheater that echoes every sound. The noise from bikes that people built themselves around here are loud enough, but if they're revving them up in our courtyard and if there's an awning, and we're in this low level across the street from a hill, please consider how loud this will be in our apartments where there's gaps around our front door. I work full-time and need my sleep at night and to rest on the weekends. There are small children living here who need to be in bed at night. Please consider including signs that there will be no motorcycles or motor scooters parking here. I think bicycle parking is wonderful and I am enthusiastic about having bicycle parking.
