Park Ridge East Park tennis courts starting to crack fairly severely (surface). Are these up for resurfacing or patching per regular maintenance soon? If not, can some patching be done? They are used by all the neighborhoods in the area and almost always are full, so they're put to good use. Thank you.

I have seen people who seem to be city and/or parks employees drive private and city vehicles off S. Stull Ave and on to the grass to get around the chain at the equipment garage. Maybe the chain could be locked with something easier to open.

We live in Park Ridge East. When they mowed recently, they only did the area around the playground and not the big field. Since no one can play on the playground now, it would be really nice if they could mow the big field, where we can actually play. I'm attaching a photo of this. Also, there is a creek bed by the park that is city property. They clear cut this area last year but have not maintained it since. If there's any way they could also mow this area or at least weed whack, that would be another safe play. Thank you!

I noticed that someone planted a large number of small trees in an open space in the park. I think it is fantastic that our city is taking these steps to protect it's soils and watersheds, while developing beautiful green spaces. One if the reasons I moved to Bloomington was this progressive attitude.

I'm so excited to have a lovely patch of trees by the creek. This will be a nice addition to a wonderful spot. This is a great improvement and happy this is being preserved. Thank you!!

I have been informed of plans to remove a planting of native trees designed to be critical riparian buffer in Schmalz Farm Park. This is an ecologically unsound decision, and is extremely wasteful as many of these trees may not survive being transplanted twice in such a short amount of time. It's been made clear to me that this decision was made at the behest of a single constituent who called in a personal favor to the deputy mayor. I believe this is undemocratic and nepotistic, and prioritizes the aesthetic goals of a single individual ocert the public benefit of this planting, which will help protect Jackson Creek from runoff and floods which threaten fish and amphibians downstream. I would urge the city to listen to the voices of all constituents, not just those with personal connections to politicians, and to act in the best interest of not just your constituents but also the environment, and allow the planting to remain. There is no shortage of fields for re-creating at this park and at many parks nearby, but few areas for the city to invest in urban greenspace with benefits for humans and nonhumans alike.
