light 85 on the B is out.
There are multiple sections of the rail trail with large, loose gravel. This type of gravel is extremely dangerous for bicyclists. The latest section to receive this gravel is just north of That Road. Can the city look into having the large loose gravel removed, and replaced with the fine crushed gravel that used to cover the trail?
The young kids playground at Bryan Park has some dangerously large gaps in the ground cover surface. This is the park in the north west corner along Henderson. See the included photo. These gaps are wide enough and deep enough for a size 11 adult male shoe to get tripped up in, let alone a child running and having fun. This needs fixed.

This is a follow-up to case #164460, which was marked as "resolved", but has not been resolved. This is part of a group of trees decimated by Indiana Railroad that is currently hanging across the trail in Butler Park. The lights mentioned in case #164460 have not been repaired and all of the fallen trees both in the actual park area and in the adjoining Indiana Railroad property have not been touched.
uReport Case #168317: I got a follow up email today about the hole I reported. Thanks to the long period of heavy rainfall, I think I have discovered what is responsible for the holes---burrowing crawdads. So, I still think the holes are dangerous BUT maybe there is no point in filling them.
Follow up on case #168883 about trees and vines growing up around the Norway spruce on the east side of the park between the tennis courts and the Woodlawn Shelter. I got an email saying that the issue had been resolved. It has not, unless that means it has been reported to the groundskeepers for clean up in the fall. Please clarify. Thanks!
There are low hanging branches on the trail through the middle of Bryan Park. There's an especially low one just east of the wooden bridge, but there are others that require ducking. There is also vegetation coming in from the creek side that should be pruned back.
There is a section of 'street' between Dunn and Henderson that I believe was supposed to be a continuation of E Wilson Street. It is just a grass area that the city owns. However, the city is doing no maintenance on this piece of property. There is a dead pine tree that needs to be removed and a very large maple tree that is overgrown and threatening to drop branches onto cars. This tree also present a health issue in that there is a large poison ivy vine growing up the tree. I have tried calling the city forester multiple times without response. Can the one tree be removed, the other pruned and cleared of poison ivy, and the grass on this city land occasionally mowed?
