The fields were all locked. Me and my toddler like to work on base running and using the little playground in there. Don't understand why they are locked. There were clearly no reservations and the fence height isn't of insufficient height to prevent entrance of someone who wanted to get in. So seems redundant and a waste of resources to leave them locked (who wants to have to come unlock them). If you could leave them unlocked during the day when there are no reservations that would be great. It is important to me to have the space to explore the sport of baseball with my children.

The City does not maintain the trees between the sidewalk and the street on Adams. The trees and brush are overgrown with invasive species and the local residents are spending hours and money trying to maintain the weeds/trees that are impeding their property. The sidewalk is not accessible because the City has not maintained their portion of the land between the sidewalk and the street.

There are large stones blocking the sidewalk on the north side of 2nd, a bit west of Wendy’s and also closer to the trail. You wouldn’t leave barriers in the roads. Why do you leave them on sidewalks? Thank you.

The sidewalk in front of the Bloomington Thrift Store is still covered with ice, 23 days after the snow stopped falling. They cleared their parking lot well but did nothing to the sidewalk. And there’s a deep puddle just a bit east of there, on the north side of the overpass in front of the old motorcycle store, now closed. The puddle is at least four inches deep. I hope the city learns from this recent heavy snow to do a better job at clearing paths for all, but I am not confident.

There is a detour sign in the middle of the sidewalk at the NE corner of Walnut and Second. It creates an obstacle for people with disabilities. Please tell your employees and contractors not to obstruct sidewalks. It happens a lot.

Cafe Thistle has a flag that is blocking the sidewalk. It would be disorienting for a blind person to run into.

Downtown Bloomington transit station bathroom does not have ADA compliant toilet paper dispenser. It's too far away from toilet. And accessible entrance automatic doors on outside of the building are not working.

I’m beyond disappointed that the city is planning to replace the brick sidewalks downtown with more bricks. The ADA requires that sidewalks be firm, stable and slip resistant. Bricks are slipperier than concrete when wet, and bricks are prone to breaking or get dislodged. The city has not maintained its existing brick sidewalks well. Please reconsider this decision, and please consult your accessibility committee before you go forth with this misguided project. Safety should prevail over looks.
