I have reached out to Switchyard Park by phone, by email, by social media MULTIPLE times about the noise levels in switchyard park. I’ve also had to call the non-emergency line to see if the police can do anything. (I didn’t know what else to do.) They agreed the noise was very loud but they couldn’t find employees and the performers had permits, so nothing was done. The officers suggested I reach out to the city council. My mother has MS and has an hard time moving around due to this condition and I have autism amongst other health issues. We are being run out of our house almost every time there are events at switchyard park. I understand it is a community park and I do not have an issue with the music or events. I do not want to ruin anyone’s experience whatsoever. It’s the volume that is the issue. The bass is so high it shakes our house. We didn’t know when we purchased our home this would be so much of an issue, and cannot afford to move. When I complain the noise level goes down for a week or so and then right back up. My own birthday party had to be cancelled early due to no one being able to converse inside. Today I had to arrange for my mother with a DISABILITY to be picked up from our home, due to me being at work, because the noise is so bad she can’t even watch tv with the volume turned up and was extremely agitated by the home shaking. I’m in no way asking to cancel anything. We ourselves enjoy some events at the park. I just feel as if being run out of my own home is unfair, especially when all I want to do is come home from work and relax. We are NOT safe to relax in our own home. Is there any way there can be a noise/bass level set so our neighborhood can rest in peace, in our own homes?

COB employee spraying Glyphosate with no dye and no signage on the BLine and surrounding sidewalks. This is during the farmers market. Glyphosate has an entry period of 4-24 hours and should not be used around people and animals!

Please ban e-bikes and e-scooters from the trails/walkways. People are flying by on these devices with little regard to walkers creating a lot of near misses. It’s especially dangerous for people walking dogs. A ban is the cleanest and simplest solution to the growing problem. Thank you.

Pickle ball courts nets need to be tightened so they are horizontal. Also, lights should be added to the courts for play after dark. Thanks!

Looks like it's (past) time to clear the junk out from under two of the spruces near the Bryan Park tennis courts. Maybe make it an item on the once-a-year to-do list: weed under all the spruce. It REALLY needs doing now and would be easier if done more frequently.

There are two utility box covers that have improper covers on them near the athletic fields. The lids are rotten and soft and will not support a person's weight. They also flip open when stepped on. This is a serious safety issue that needs to be addressed as soon as possible.
