Griffy is amazing, some of the best trail running around. What isn't amazing is the amount of trash in the parking lot. Some of it is old, some of it new. I was there after 8AM today, some it was probably left last night but regardless it could have been picked up right away this morning. Attendants didn't look busy, mostly getting tech neck. Cleaning up trash has got to be one of the easiest ways to make a positive impact, especially in a nature preserve. Thanks for your help.

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?

We witnessed a gentlemen badly scratch/dent his car today on the concrete block at the overflow entrance while trying to get out of his parking space. There were vehicles parking other vehicles in, vehicles parked along the roadside, and vehicles parked at the exit. In addition all day there seemed to be a line of vehicles waiting to park as well. Might I suggest that there be a shuttle bus from campus to here on the weekends when it is nice, or perhaps a marked trail that is walkable from parking lots further away (the other parking lot was overfull as well), or perhaps have a staff person on site to keep people/property from being damaged due to trying to maneuver in the parking lot.

All parks should have at least one bike rack. I don't see one at Park ridge park even though on a bike trail?

My name is Lauren and I am the facilities manager at Middle Way House. Yesterday afternoon I found a gas string trimmer tucked behind some bushes in our garden bed. This seemed suspicious so I brought it inside. Does this belong to the landscaping crew?

The fountain needs to be repaired. It was one of the most lovely places to gather in this city and my sister with special needs loved going there to see the fountain. Why are our tax paying dollars not going towards fixing it?

A tree from what I believe is City property in Griffy Lake Nature Preserve has fallen and landed in my backyard. I called the non-emergency number to report about a week ago but haven't heard anything. The tree is tall and half is still standing with other half in my yard. I am at 423 East Lakewood Drive. Thanks.
