Several rows of lights in the parking lot are out. It is very unsafe after dark especially with small children.

Is there any way to organize a clean up of the trash in the area surrounding the B Link trail between S Walnut and S Henderson? Does the city own that property? The trash on either side of the trail is getting to be a hazard to the small animals that live along there and is not pleasant to run past several times a week. Some community members might be willing to help clean it up but don't ever want to trespass on private property without permission. Thanks in advance for your help.
Every time I come to Bryan park to enjoy a quiet walk with my dog there are 2-3 mowers zipping around in every area of the park. You can’t get away from them! I appreciate that the park is well maintained, but today (10-21-25) there are 3 mowers, and the grass is short and leaves already mulched. There is no need for mowers here right now at all. I know you want to keep workers busy but the park is about us and nature, not big loud machines.
The Bryan Park upper playground was supposed to reopen Saturday at noon. Its Sunday at 4pm on Fall Break and its still locked up. Bad timing and broken promises.
Multiple (maybe 8) very large trees of heaven growing along alley on east end of lot. Might be on City property, hard to tell. Trees are 2-3 feet in diameter. These trees are annually a source of many small invasive trees of heaven on nearby properties.
A request to have 2 small branches cut as they are dropping tons of walnuts on sidewalk where kids walk to Fairview. Tree is at 317 N. Fairview St. Tree belongs to Jane Henderson, landlady, who does not care if branches get cut. Years ago city cut down a Siberian Elm on her property that leaned over street. Reporting as don’t want walnuts falling in little kids heads walking to & from school. THANK YOU. Kay Thorbecke
Hi, I requested the removal of a tree near my house and was hoping for an update, that was ticket #203710. Thanks!!
The grey faux-rock climbing feature at the playground has feces smeared on it. I do not know if Parks maintenance has the appropriate tools to wash it off and dispose of it, but if you do it would be great if you could clean it up. (I try to clean up things I see at the park, but this is beyond my abilities!) The attached photo shows the climbing feature, but doesn't really show the feces.
Blue slide has some sketchy separation here
Many tree roots in this area, raising the bike path like speed bumps. Noticed they are growing and are becoming quite a nuisance for wheelchair especially. They are also quite hard to see in certain lighting conditions. There is also another large raised root across from Rev Butler Park path entrance off bike path.
