There has been a burnt plastic smell in 9th Street park for months during business hours. I finally caught Bloomington iron & metal in the act. They are using some sort of torch or arc cutter to cut painted metal and it is burning off the enamel as they go. It has pretty much ruined 9th st park. I'm sure this isnt you guys' responsibility, but its your problem (sorry). Thanks! The photo was taken from the b line, and in person the cloud of smoke is very visible.

I was not sure to whom I should send this e-mail; but this was the address listed on Bloomington's Parks and Recreation website. The local park in my neighborhood, Park Ridge Park, is in need of some new equipment. I know it is hard to get funding and that our park is small but it is right near the apartments and there are a great number of kids and young adults who frequent the park. Our neighborhood would be proud to call Park Ridge Park our "home" park but not in the state that it is in. The main problem is with the basketball goals. They are badly rusted (the poles as well as the backboards) and one goal has a net that is cut up and dangling halfway off. Basically, this section of the park is an eyesore. It has seen a lot of use over the years but if we could get funding to have these replaced that would be super! Thank you.

I set up a slackline (a sort of portable tightrope) on the basketball goals at upper cascades park yesterday, january 11th in the afternoon. upon examination of my slack line setup, I realized i had set up the line wrong, in such a way that the only way it could be removed is to be cut. I had mulled over my decisions in this situation and decided to return the next day with a knife in order to cut the line down. I arrived today at around 4:00pm and discovered my slack line had been taken down and was nowhere in sight. I asked a few of the skaters who were nearby if they had seen anything. I got stories from two separate individuals stating that an older, bald/balding, man wearing a white tshirt and or black jacket. i would like to know if the man mentioned was a parks employee, or if it was just some guy who stole my 150$ slack line. a speedy response would be greatly appreciated as if it wasn't a parks employee, i will be contacting the police.

Good morning. I have a couple questions on the dog park. How high is the fence? I know that it says that we should unleash the dogs as soon as we get in through the gate but what if we have a new dog that we are not too confident in their recall just yet? Can I keep her on a long lead for some, if not all, of the time? Thanks. Matt Crouse
