Hello, I live at the end of Stull Ave. There is a path between some shrubs into Bryan Park at that point. Right now it is a soil path which gets muddy and is eroding. Is it possible to have some wood chips or gravel put down? Thanks in advance for any help you can give. Regards, Jean Mayfield-Morelli
A constituent complained to a Councilmember that the Polly Grimshaw trail is badly overgrown and there are several places on the end east of Pete Ellis that are nearly impassable. The constituent said that it would be impossible for two oncoming cyclists to pass each other. Constituent said that sight distances are very poor and the west end "looks like someone went through with a machete about a month ago and took out some of the overgrowth (leaving the remains all over the trail)." The constituent requests that the immediate concern with overgrowth be addressed and that this trail be put on a regular maintenance schedule.

I am a runner who parks at the Grimes/Patterson/Bike Garage trail head and runs south on the B-line most every day. Today for the first time after work (5:45-6:30pm) that parking lot was 90% full. Everyone who I observed coming and going from the parking lot had a gym bag and went in to Crossfit rather than using the trail. It seems like Crossfit as a commercial venture should have to secure its own parking for its patrons rather than allowing them to park for free in the trailhead lot to the detriment of trail users. Is it possible you may speak to the Crossfit owners or put up signage there before the students come back and it gets worse? Thank you for letting me know about this, in case there is nothing to be done and I need to find somewhere new to run.
To whom it may concern, We are thinking about buying a property in The Stands that borders the Goat Farm property and the Jackson Creek Trail. I was wondering what the rules and regulations, if any, are for building a trail on our property that would connect with the park property. Any information you can give would be appreciated. Thanks so much, Allison Stites 773-304-6832
Cynthia owns property just north of Bryan Park at 818 E Maxwell. On Bryan Park property just south of her property there are 4 drainage tiles that have collapsed. Holes are 6-12in deep in area that has not been mowed.
Dell Douglas called this morning to voice her concerns about bicycles on the paths and sidewalks at Bryan Park. During the past 3 years she has noticed more dangerous conditions due to the speed of bikers on the paths in the park. Most recently, she was walking far to the right on the path near the stream and a family on bicyles nearly ran into her. They were moving so quickly she was unable to say anything to them. She feels there is more disregard for pedestrians walking in the park and is afraid someone will suffer serious injury if things don't change. She would appreciate a call back from Mick after 6/14.

What do the numbers on the light posts along the trail represent? Is it a distance?
