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 is an older fellow who consistently comes to the park on a bike with his dog and plays loud, very explicit music on a Bluetooth speaker. I wouldn't really have an issue if there weren't so many kids around that don't need to hear that music aloud. He should wear headphones like everyone else. To give a physical description for better identification, he has long, somewhat greying hair and looks to be in his mid to late 40s. He always wears a backwards baseball cap, sunglasses, a t-shirt, and shorts. The dog is a small to mid size breed, mostly grey with some brown and white spotting. He frequents the tables outside the two dog parks but never actually enters the large or small dog parks. I believe this qualifies as being a public disturbance/nuisance and enough people seem bothered by it that it seems like someone with authority should take action to get him to cease.

Food Truck Issues

I believe the Pierogi Place is operating a food truck without a license. There are no license plates (or registration) on the food truck which are required to get a license, and they are parking the truck in Gentry Estates neighborhood and dumping their gray water tank.
Blocked Street

The parent pick up lane continues to cause major issues with this street. The parents block the area where there is a lane merger with a cross walk. The parents need to follow the rules of the road and wait until the line is moving allowing the residents of the area to use that street. The teachers that guard there are rude, and will not allow you to go past even with no kids in sight. I understand there is another way through the neighborhood, but it is out of the way, and doesn't stop the fact that they are not above the law, and that street should not be blocked for ANYTIME. If there was an emergency, is it right for a loved one to have to wait for help due to a parent pickup line? This is an issue that can be EASILY fixed with the guards stopping the parents from blocking the merged area allowing for the traffic to flow. This has been brought to the school who basically puts their hands up like it isn't their teachers out there yelling at residents just trying to make it home.

The area on the north side of Sudbury Drive, between the last Millenium driveway and Arbor Ridge Way is not being maintained, mowed, etc. by the Millemium Apartment Management. I complained to Kenny Liford in the summer of 2024. He told me he gave them a warning and that they would be fined if they did not comply. To date, they have never mowed that area since that complaint. They used to maintain it until the past 2-3 years. According to the INDOT, this area is within the city limits. The area not being maintained is along the tree conservancy, which is owned by Millenium but governed by the city.
Excessive Growth

There is an ongoing issue with overgrown vegetation and lack of mowing on Sudbury Drive. This area has not been maintained for an extended period of time resulting in tall grass, weeds, and encroaching plant growth. This was a problem last year and Sudbury Drive has not been mowed even once this year. The excessive vegetation is obstructing sidewalks, reducing visibility, and contributing to an overall unkempt appearance of the neighborhood. I ask that the city address this problem as soon as possible.

As previously reported on June 10, 2025, the South side of Sudbury, between Arbor Ridge Way and the last drive east of Rolling Ridge is not being maintained by the Millennium Apartments between the Conservancy and the sidewalk. After I entered ticket # 203288, some entity did come by and cut down some of the weeds with a long handle type device reaching out from a truck. It really did a poor job of clearing the area and it is already grown up again. Also, the north side of Sudbury, which belongs to Developers, is also a mess and not being maintained or mowed. Several neighbors have complained and so that is why I am entering a ticket again.
