There has been a fish kill in Jackson creek, just off the trail. The water is clouded, smells foul. Dead fish are all over the rocks.
Switchyard Dog Park needs a hose or more accessible water spout/fountain installed for large communal (dog) water bowls. Ferguson model works well. An awning that actually provides shade (current one does not) would also be wonderful. Thank you :)
Switchyard Large Dog Park - water/mud problem. The main large tree in the center of the Large Dog Park is a pit of mud. Would really appreciate it being covered with sod to prevent muddy dogs!
Tents set up overnight. Tons of trash. Social gatherings > 15 people. Alcohol and drug use. Apparently city has social workers at park to hand out free water and supplies. Nobody is taking care of real problems.
This is ridiculous. There has been standing water at the switchyard dog park for 3 months. This needs to be addressed. This is a breeding ground for bacteria and unsafe for the dogs of Bloomington. Put a fence around it.
The standing water around the Sycamore tree. This water is a swamp area. It is dirty and disgusting. It is very hard to keep dogs out of it because it is a big area. It needs to be cleaned up. Maybe put a more stronger fence around the area for now. Please do something about this standing water ASAP. IT IS NOT SAFE FOR OUR DOGS!! Such a beautiful park, with an unsafe standing water!!
Water is permanently standing in the new large dog area of the Switchyard Park dog park. This has led to injuries among other issues with dogs (not to mention the huge mess this makes and destruction to the grounds of the park). Please remedy this situation as soon as possible. Thank you.
Last night we noticed a large amount of water (more than from snow melt) across the center path, in front of the green bench near the restrooms. It looked like it was coming up from the ground, like from a leak in a pipe.
I really like the improvements for fishing and/or enjoying the water at the Griffy boathouse parking lot. The large limestone blocks along the shoreline were a nice addition however they have little support underneath and some have rolled into the water. These must be pretty heavy and hopefully no one was on the blocks as they rolled. The gravel behind is now sliding into water as well.
The water fountain is leaking in Park Ridge Park.
