Switchyard dog park- small dogs
- Case Date:
- 7/5/2025
We did our first visit Switchyard park - small dog area. I have a 6lb chihuahua. I experienced him getting out at Ferguson dog park. So any dog park we visit I check for gaps. The small dog area at Switchyard needs to be checked by Psrks. There were many gaps from fence to ground that’s tiny dogs could get out. The gaps need to be filled with dirt to bring over the fence line. Please let me know when this is corrected so we can return. Thank you.

There are a couple of trees blocking the Griffy Creek trail. They are located on the main trail that follows the creek just after the trail makes a sharp left turn. I came from Lanam Road and crossed the creek and started walking up the creek when I came across this blockage. There may or may not be other blockages on the trail. A good job was done removing downed trees on the Lanam Road trail by the way. Thanks!

This yard frequently has trash other debris in the yard, tall grass and low-hanging untrimmed tree limbs that are unsightly and maybe dangerous for neighbors and passersby. They also leave the trash cans lying in the yard or on the sidewalk all week long.

Tree of heaven spotted in the park. Since they are spraying in the park for other things, this might be a good opportunity to stop this invasive species.

There has been a large Rumpke dumpster parked in the exit lane of the parking lot of our apartment complex for 10 days. Hunter Bloomington Property Management gave residents no notice of this dumpster -- or of the two others that have previously been placed in other spots in the parking lot. This makes the necessity of driving the wrong way down the drive lane in the back lot in order to exit even more dangerous. I called their office before end of the day on Friday, June 27th and received no answer. But I haven't been able to get a person on the phone from property management in several months. I also sent an email on July 1 which they also have not responded to.
The dumpsters appear to have been for construction garbage, as one of the buildings was re-roofed last week. But residents have used the dumpsters for personal garbage and with the heat, the smell is quite noticeable, just outside our door. We have not been able to consistently get deliveries to our door since this most recent dumpster appeared. And we are also concerned that the dumpster may block the access of emergency vehicles, which I noted in my email to property managment.

There is a hole in the driveway of this complex on the direct route from the new sidewalk across to the street. My kid tripped on it last night after dark, discovering the issue. I'm not sure if it's the responsibility of the city or the apartment complex, but it is a safety hazard for pedestrians. It goes all the way down to the culvert. Thanks.

Due to the construction on East 19th street, I have not been able to get any mail for two weeks. This is a serious problem, considering I was also just robbed (as well as multiple other houses on my street) and I have a security system coming in the mail. There is a very obvious way to access N Washington Street that any navigation system reroutes you to, but none of the mail trucks have been going up that way. They could at least receive instructions to walk it up to the correct address from their delivery trucks, it’s a very big problem to not be able to receive mail and I’m a bit frustrated with the whole situation.

Hello - I am the manager of the Osage Place Homeowner Association. The Board of the Osage Place neighborhood is wondering if it is possible to stripe parking spaces on Bernard Street. The goal is to help identify parking spaces and alleviate those parking improperly and leaving large distances (but not enough to park) when parking on the street. The homes on the west side of Bernard do not have off-street parking, so they must utilize the on street spaces. Thank you, Suzanne OConnell (Focus Property Mgt) 812.200.6128 Tel
