IU students are returning which will put even more pressure on the RCA pickleball courts. There are six permanent courts there (one with broken net) The Bloomington Pickleball Club has offered to put temporary lines on the tennis courts to add 6 more courts. There are a number of temp chalk and paint products out there that will do the trick short term. The lines will not affect the ability to play tennis (though no one really plays tennis here) The BPC has temp nets we can put out at least on weekends to help with the crowds. I suggest the city also adopt some court rules for how the courts get shared when there is a large crowd. Let’s get ahead of this before it becomes a bigger problem in a few weeks!

The net on court 2 of the pickleball courts is damaged and unusable. Looks like a pretty easy fix.

I sent this to mcdevitp@bloomington.in.gov, sternerm@bloomington.in.gov, eadsd@bloomington.in.gov, barrickb@bloomington.in.gov today, but I wanted to submit it here too so that it's entered into the uReport records and doesn't get lost. This is in regard to the hole in the turf field at the Twin Lakes Recreation Center, where the turf has worn through to the concrete and almost caused some serious injuries to our league players on Sunday, February 19th. Our league ends after March 5th and I'm worried someone will get seriously hurt between now and then unless something is done to cover or patch that spot on the field during that time. Hi Paula, Rebecca, Mark, and Daren, Thank you for your quick response. I do appreciate that you are inquiring to see if the work can be moved up to spring break week (March 13). However, this doesn't answer my question about what they are going to do to make the field safe to play on in the two weeks before that time. We still have to play on the field during those two weeks (unless of course Twin Lakes would like to refund us the money for those days and reschedule our field time - something that would need to be discussed with the leagues). Is there anything Twin Lakes can do to patch or cover that spot in the immediate term until the repairs can be made? We just don't want anyone to get hurt, and I know of course you must have the same concern. Best regards, Sarah Mosier 765-516-4862 s.e.mosier1@gmail.com

I've been playing Ultimate Frisbee in this community for a number of years. One of the more prominent, competitive, and fun seasons in the calendar is Winter League shiv has been held at Twin Lakes for a long as I can remember. I've also played in a few soccer outings on that indoor turf and I can only imagine how many other activities take place on the indoor soccer turf. In some years past, the turf was getting a bit past the normal wear-and-tear stage but this year has been ridiculous. There are some patches of the field that have worn down into the concrete below. This is far past unacceptable. Is love to continue to play Ultimate, soccer, and participate in other activities that may use this turf however if the conditions are not improved, I feel that I will need to seek other locations to enjoy these activities

The turf field at Twin Lakes is becoming unsafe to play on. Multiple spots have lost the rubber/grass/turf parts - which already causes slips and potential injuries. This particular picture shows a section that has worn completely through the turf/grass and all the way through the base layer and exposes the concrete floor underneath. At some point, a liability waiver won't cover injuries caused by unsafe facilities.

There have been numerous twisted ankles and slips due to the poorly patched or non existent turf on the indoor turf fields at Twin Lakes Rec Center. Please find a quick fix while leagues are still occuring, and ideally a whole refitting of the field between leagues, it is about time for that after years of poor-quality patches.

Why isn't there a ramp leading to the observation area for soccer at Twin Lakes? Tonight I witnessed two individuals in wheel chairs at the complex who wanted to watch the soccer games. The first person had to be carried up and down the stairs and the wheelchair was left near the bottom of the stairs. The second person remained in her wheel chair and the person she was with pulled the entire wheel chair up the stairs, step by step. Why can't the city build a ramp for everyone to use to get up to the observation platform? This is not accessible for people in wheel chairs and it needs to be addressed. Thank you for your time.

There used to be a clock above the lifeguard station. Could you please make an effort to replace it this season? It’s a big help to be able to keep track of time at the pool. (I don’t bring my phone or wear a watch in the pool.) Thanks! NOTE: Ticket #184016 was marked “resolved” on 6/6/2023 and Satoshi Kido reported “Thanks for reaching out. The clock is up on the wall at Bryan Park Pool.” Which wall would this clock be on? I have not seen it yet this summer, and we are at the pool frequently.

The larger shelter at Building Trades Park looks like it will fall down any minute. I went there for a neighborhood meeting a couple weeks ago and am no longer comfortable scheduling our own neighborhood meetings in the park because it looks so unsafe
