Debris Removal (Sand, General Street Debris)

Stormwater grates on either side of Winslow Farm Drive near the intersection with Winslow Road were covered and fastened with sisal-like mats at the beginning of work on the Winslow Rd. section of the pedestrian/biker pathway in mid-spring. As a result, that part of Winslow Road has flooded with every heavy rain, and the grates are now heavily clogged. Early on, I contacted the Street Department about this, but was told that the City had nothing to do with the project, which was slated to finish in October (!) Now it is October, and the pathway crews have finished and cleaned up. But still no one has removed those sisal covers on the two stormwater grates. I'm not sure what department should handle this, but I'd really like to see the problem resolved. Why the grates have had to be covered all these months is a mystery to me.

The playground structures at this park are in really poor condition. The rubber surfacing is falling apart, and the equipment is quite degraded. It needs to be replaced. When is this playground scheduled for maintenance/ replacement?

See picture. Previous problem still going on! Daily! Not only is there tons of trash and a large social gathering, there are daily fights, drug use, etc. There are tons of laws being broken daily. “resolved” means they are fixed. They are not and have been going on for years! Bloomington tax payers want their city and parks back! It’s your job Paula McDevitt. If you don’t want to do it, step down. You are being held accountable. The law is the law and not up to your opinions/discretion.

I was told that the playground is slated for replacement in spring 2021, which is great! I would like to suggest that the city consider adding a "Natural Playground" in the wooded area behind the shelter. Natural playgrounds are so amazing for kids, and an attraction for the community. There are two great ones nearby- Cool Creek Park in Indy, and at the Louisville Nature Center in Louisville! See https://childhoodbynature.com/the-big-deal-about-nature-playgrounds/

It looks like the road had settled and they chose to fix the issue by adding asphalt over the concrete road. It turn basically made it a speed up a couple years back. We unfortunately have huge semis and overloaded tractor trailers flying down our road. The thud from these hauling trailers can me felt all throughout my house. I have noticed since buying the house two years ago, that these constant vibrations are affecting the foundation on my house. My next door neighbor and I have had enough. I don’t know why the city chose to fix the settled road this way but it is cause far more damage to my property than it is the cars and semis driving over this area. I’ve already filed a complaint over a year ago and nothing has been done.
