Please post a sign at Park Ridge East shelter reminding residents that the shelter is not reservable. Leah Sinn Iversen and others have been trying to reserve on behalf of groups. With just the one shelter, drop-in use is appreciated. Thank you!
Curbside tree limbs need trimmed. They are hanging too low and scratching the top of cars/mailman. Thank you!
On E. Sheridan Drive, between Manor and Hawthorne, there are pine trees on the south side of the street by the creek. The furthest east tree is leaning over heavily towards the street and biking and walking path. There are parking spots under the tree and some power lines not far away that the tree might be able to hit when it falls. The tree has a heavy sideways tilt to it. The ground around the base of the tree is raised up. The creek bed behind the tree is eroding out. It seems like a matter of time before the tree falls over, uprooted on its own. Let this be the writing I will share with anyone who is injured by the pine tree falling that shows the City is on notice as to the inherent danger of a tree on City property that is in a state of ground heaving, appears ready to be uprooted, and could cause property damage, personal injury, or death due to the City's negligence in failing to remove the tree upon notice of the danger. Good luck. Please evaluate the tree and strongly consider preemtively removing it before it does any harm.
Dangerous Bradford Pear. 30ft tall. City came through trimming trees and left it where one half of the branches are gone on one side making it heavy on one side and the whole tree is leaning south looking to fall on neighbors driveway and car given the next big winds. Whole thing seriously just needs to be removed
I wish to complain vehemently about the noisy hand dryers at Twin Lakes. With each use, it sounds like a jet airplane taking off. A terrifying and very LOUD sound. It’s time to replace them with a softly humming dryer before an octogenarian member dies of a heart attack. You’ll save on toilet paper, too, from those who look for an alternative!
Rca park east restroom had tolit paper today when I looked. Thanks Tim. Rob Hamros

"Tree-Keeper" database reports 56 Ailanthus altissima ("tree of heaven") trees being maintained by the City. Given this is an invasive plant and is known to be the primary food source for Lycorma delicatula (spotted lanternfly), should the City be obliged to remove these trees that are listed on the State list: ("Prohibited Invasive Terrestrial Plants [312 IAC 18-3-25]", https://ag.purdue.edu/department/entm/iisc/invasive-plants.html) ? If HAND is going to proactively threaten residents by "asking" them to remove something that is not on the State list (e.g., bamboo), it seems profoundly hypocritical for them to not address a serious ecological issue that they are helping to advance.
Our property has a large locust tree that has lost several large branches in what we believe is the city right of way. One branch blocked the roadway until we were able to clear with our equipment. It has several additional large dead branches and the entire tree has a significant lean to the street and neighboring properties. It’s located just before our driveway which is actually on Pine Lane. Thank you.
