Recently, I've seen several young Tulip Trees infested with scale in the neighborhoods where I walk. I first noticed them because their bark is so black I thought they'd been scorched, but when I looked closely they're covered in scale. The trees are between the street and the sidewalk, so I assume they're city trees. They're in the Sherwood Oaks, Peppergrass, and surrounding neighborhoods. Here are the specific locations for the one's I've found so far: • Benson Court, just west of Jamie Lane. The tree is on the south side of the street. • Heather Drive, west of Preston. There's one on the south side of the street and another on the north side a bit further down the road (near Grasstree Ct.). • Allendale Drive, west of Bainbridge. On the north side of the street.

Hey! I am wondering who is responsible for clearing the multi-use trail all along Bloomfield Rd? I thought it's the city's responsibility but it seems inconsistently cleared. I've walked that path three times now to get to and from work and there hasn't been much change in the past few days. Just wanted to check in about that! Thanks!

My wife took our kids to switchyard park today and went to the playground area where 3 men who she did not know seemed to follow her and the kids around various areas of the playground. They were hanging around close enough for her to feel unsafe and leave the park, which is very unlike her. My request would be for areas (particularly those used by younger children) to have an increase security presence so folks aren't feelin this way in our parks.

Last two Sundays Switchyard park especially the playground has been covered in trash. The best part is that there have been multiple parks employees standing around some "picking up trash" in the same small area for long periods of time. Not sure if this is a "not my job" situation but it really wouldn't take much time if employees showed motivation in cleaning up the park.

The trail to Park Ridge Park is over grown to the point where bikes and peds can not pass each other without using the grass verge. Dangerous especially at evening

A tree has fallen down, in the back corner, of the graveyard near the walking trail to 8th Street. An additional tree next to it is leaning at about a 60 degree angle causing a potential hazardous situation if it falls.

Trails heading west are degrading in condition. Several large cracks and empty voids along the trail. Also Limbs along the trail are ridiculously low. Several are less than 5 feet off the ground and need trimmed. They need to be at least 6 feet up so people of average height can travel without issues of getting smacked in the face with tree limbs that are soaking wet. Please resolve both issues
