Please trim a few limbs at the bottom of the tree in front of the power and communications boxes to the left of the driveway. This will allow mowing the lawn without ducking

Please create more shade at Switchyard Park near the playground and splash pad. I was there with a young child and a baby this weekend, and it was impossible to keep the baby in shade while still having a view of the child on the playground or on the splash pad. The grates above the swings do not offer shade, and both shelters were being used by groups/parties. There should be shade structures at the playground and alongside the splash pad. I encountered a number of people with the same complaint.
There is almost no shade at all in the Switchyard playground. I understand, of course, that nothing can be done in terms of tree cover until the recently-planted ones grow and create more shade, but why in the world do the metal slats above the wooden benches along the west side of the playground not have some kind of canopy over them? They don't block sun or rain and seem to be completely useless. We love Switchyard but it's really inconvenient to not have any shade or rain protection over at least part of the park. I can't imagine it would be very expensive to install some kind of canvas cover above the slats, at the very least.
For a few years there was a poolside basketball hoop, which was a great source of entertainment at the pool for many people, especially people who do not use the diving boards or slides. Please reinstall this hoop. Thank you!
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!
A large tree looks to be dead in the sidewalk right along the street
We could use a trash receptacle or combo trash/recycling on the dam side of Griffy Lake. This area gets quite a bit of usage during the warm months and I find a lot of bottles and cans, fishing materials, and dog waste in the area. Since the area is already being mowed on a regular basis, I would imagine it would be fairly easy for the crew to empty the bin at the same time.
Hello! I serve as the trail monitor @ Lower Cascades Pk. There is a sizable tree down and across the Overlook trail. Trunk diameter is est. 18 inches or more, with three sizable branches extending from the main trunk. I can climb through it but a number of individuals would have issues getting by.
At the B-Link / Walnut intersection (east side), there is glass all over the trail.
Hello, there is a tree down across the Bloomington Rail Trail about 100-150 yards south of the 1/2 mile marker (coming from the Country Club tarilhead). Thank you.
