Kids riding electronic scooters on trails recklessly when there are signs posted not to.
There are people who are unhoused living in the area around the old torn down shelter house slab and in the woods at RCA Park.
Piece of barbed wire directly on the trail at RCA Park. It is the part of the trail that comes out into the neighborhood midway down Countryside. I passed the sign that explains that the stand of trees along this section of the trail indicates that it had once been a road. The wire is very close to where the goes out onto the sidewalk. It is dangerous because it is directly on the trail so it isn't obvious as you walk.
The 3 oak trees on Heather need severe trimming. The limbs hang down and hit windshields.
Shrubs,weeds,brush and small trees have been cut down by someone and not removed, this area has also been sprayed with some type of Herbicide, that killed a lot of the grass, etc. In addition this trail was sprayed without any warning to the general public! Grass is being mowed along the trail without any attempt to clean up the mess made by whoever sprayed and cut the brush. This all needs to be cleaned up.
Edges of paved trail continue to crumble, making trail narrower and narrower in spots. Two-way use is becoming challenging when combined with plants life on other side. Also, Trail has a large sunken area with uneven surface on west end near bypass, tricky for anything wheeled no navigate. Please repair or replace as needed in honor of a fine Librarian and for those that use it, thanks.
the trail could really use some love. it's way overgrown. the north edge of the pavement is crumbling towards the center. the south edge is disappearing under soil. substantial cracks and dips, kinda like sinkholes. please help make this trail a safe way to connect neighborhoods and commerce, thanks
There is poison hemlock growing along both sides of the trail from Pete Ellis east to beyond the pool at The Crossing. There is also poison hemlock sprouting on the dirt slope going down from Pete Ellis to the tennis courts of The Crossing where they cleared out a homeless encampment last year. I'm not sure if this is public or private land.
A lot of effort has been done to trim trees and remove invasive honeysuckle along this trail the last year. Unfortunately, the perhaps even more invasive tree of heaven has taken its place. I've noticed dozens of saplings that have grown already up to 10 feet tall this year.
All street lights on the Polly Grimshaw Trail east of Pete Ellis appears to be burned out. I just walked this trail this morning around 7:30 and thank goodness I had a light!
