The debris dam on the creek below the bridge between Sherwood Oaks Park and Olcott Park has become even more effective. The water level at the bridge is visibly higher, and so much water is now being held back that there is a waterfall over one end of the dam. There has been more erosion of the flat land along the creek at the base of the trail through Olcott Woods. It is likely that the abundance of leaves in the creek this winter (from people disposing of leaves in the creek?) has made the dam more effective.

Hello. I am a resident near Olcott Park and have noticed what look like lighting fixtures being installed along the trail from Sherwood Oaks Park to Olcott Park. I'd like to make a case against this, as it is extremely damaging to the small ecosystem the forest has. These lights will cause light pollution in an otherwise rather remote area considering its proximity to the city and will disturb bat populations as well as many other night-active animals that require a dark environment to thrive. The trail and woods are a wonderful place to look at the stars at night and go birdwatching, but these lights will disturb these activities. Many ecological programs/studies that take place will also be impacted: there is an event for owl watching that happens in the summer, and the presence of lights in the otherwise dark forest will disrupt this. People tend to sleep and stay in when it is dark in the first place, the lights are not worth the effort to put them in and the damage they will cause. I personally enjoy going for walks in the dark on summer evenings and watching the lightning bugs, an activity I and many other children enjoyed growing up near the park. Please consider this appeal; I am willing to speak in person if needed. Thank you.

Please consider placing a restroom or port-o-let at Sherwood Oaks Park. It is a beautiful park but people use the woods as a restroom constantly.

For the second year in a row, the plants in the middle of the trail roundabout where the trail to Sherwood Oaks Park, Olcott Park and to Rhorer Road intersect have been cut down. Why? This circle contained native plants, including elderberry (which was much smaller this year after having been cut down last year). This year everything was cut right down to the ground. This does not match practices elsewhere along the trails.

The people building the additional floors on the building at 4th and College do such a terrible job of keeping the temporary sidewalk open. When it is open it is about 2 ft wide, and most of the time during the day they have dragged the fence right up against the concrete barriers and make people walk in the middle of traffic. STUPID!

Quit purging the location history of the complaints for seminary park. It’s obvious the city is doing so to limit what the public can see for various political/legal reasons. Someone needs to find out who is responsible purging these reports and that person needs held accountable. This cities agenda is so one sided boardering being illegal. Your “public” meetings requiring voices and votes (parks and recreation) are only promoted and people made aware through very liberal means/programs. I’m sure someone will just delete this post almost immediately but I hope my voice gets heard to as many as possible until then.
