On Sunday afternoon after all the rain, I noticed a debris dam across the creek that was holding back some water. Yesterday it was not holding back water, but remains in a position to collect more debris in the next rains. On Sunday I could see from the trail through Olcott woods that the water had overflowed at the dam and moved across the low land on the north side of the creek, through the grove of pawpaws.. Part of the debris came from a pile that had been just below the bridge. The dam includes a tree trunk that is now caught on an upright tree. If you go to the bridge and stand on the Olcott end and look downstream, you can see the debris dam.

The parking at Griffy Lake is insufficient for the current demand and the situation will likely only get worse in the future with the much appreciated upgrades to the trails and fishing pier. When the overflow parking is blocked off cars get backed up out to the street waiting for people to leave to take their spot. This creates a huge safety hazard for pedestrians and drivers alike. Could we look into some sort of solution to help reduce this congestion? Perhaps a carpool lot further away? A bus stop? Or even a way to walk from campus safely rather than it being a car required location. If none of those work, could we at least please have the overflow parking always open?

There is a pine tree on the corner lot at the northwest corner of Hillside and Woodlawn that is leaning dangerously toward Woodlawn. I drive past it a couple of times a week, and it has worsened significantly in the last few weeks. The rootball is visibly pulling up from the ground. I reported this via the CBU phone number a couple of weeks ago, but nothing has been done yet. I'm concerned the recent freeze and impending thaw will cause the tree to topple. Thanks for checking into this.

Subject: Urgent: Request for Removal of Dead Trees on Public Land Dear Madam/Sir, I am writing to bring to your attention a concerning issue regarding our property at 3020 S Stratford Dr. The southern and eastern perimeters are populated with numerous dead trees, on public land. We have reported this matter to the Urban Forester in August, and they know about the issue, we are on their list. We understand that they have immense workload, however, the urgency of our situation has increased as with each passing windy day, large branches have begun falling into our yard, posing a risk to both property and safety. We fear that the upcoming sub-freezing temperatures and spring tornado season will exacerbate the situation. Therefore, we kindly request that you prioritize the removal of the hazardous trees at your earliest convenience. (We have also started felling hazardous trees within our land.) Your prompt attention to this matter is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your understanding and assistance. Kind regards, Gergo Szanda (765-508-9679, szgergo82@gmail.com)

A tree in the front lawn of this property has two large broken branches that overhang the street, and they've been so for a couple months now. A lot of people walk under these branches on their way to and from Highland Village Park, and it's only a matter of time before one or both of these branches detach and fall onto the street. Currently, you can hear them creaking and see them swaying with the wind. They need to be safely removed before they snap off.

My wife took our kids to switchyard park today and went to the playground area where 3 men who she did not know seemed to follow her and the kids around various areas of the playground. They were hanging around close enough for her to feel unsafe and leave the park, which is very unlike her. My request would be for areas (particularly those used by younger children) to have an increase security presence so folks aren't feelin this way in our parks.
