The only infant swing in the park is broken
(See attached) A big truck drove through this morning and ripped a big limb out of this tree. It landed on sombody's minivan who was driving behind the truck. Both vehicles left the scene, but the tree debris remains. Sobody drug it off the road to the curb. Its right along 10th Street, north side of the street, between Fess Avenue and Park Avenue.
A large tree fell across the start of the Clear Creek trail at Irie Court near S Rogers & W That Road this morning. It is blocking the trail and will require chain saws to remove. Thank you.
Tree branch low clipping school bus
Low hanging tree branch behind stop sign at entrance to North high school. Possibly on property owners land at 3821 N Kinser Pike.
All trees along this road need trimmed if possible, please (beside cemetery). Scraping school bus driving along. Thank you!
Large pile of trash behind tree south of the B-Line near (former) lamppost 157, between the trail and the railroad and west of the railroad bridge. Most likely an abandoned cache of items pulled from the nearby Opportunity House dumpster.
10/12/25 Dear Parks and Recreation Department, We live in the residential neighborhood just across the street from Upper Cascades Skate Park. This is the second time a large group of cars and motorcycles has gathered there. During these gatherings, the motorcycles and vehicles repeatedly drive up and down Kinser Pike well beyond the posted speed limit, creating excessive noise from their engines and tailpipes. This disturbance has been quite disruptive to our household. We have a nine-month-old baby who struggles to sleep even with our windows closed (which we shouldn’t have to close due to this disturbance), and our dog becomes frightened by the loud popping sounds. If this group has obtained a permit for these activities, I respectfully request that Parks and Recreation notify nearby residents in advance so we can prepare accordingly. If they do not have a permit, or if this is a recurring event, I urge the department to reconsider allowing such gatherings out of consideration for those who live in the surrounding area. This is now the second occurrence; after the first, we had hoped it would not happen again. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
I don't believe the lights are working along the east side of the Winslow Sports Complex walking/running trail. I think the photocell is out.
The grey faux-rock climbing feature at the playground has feces smeared on it. I do not know if Parks maintenance has the appropriate tools to wash it off and dispose of it, but if you do it would be great if you could clean it up. (I try to clean up things I see at the park, but this is beyond my abilities!) The attached photo shows the climbing feature, but doesn't really show the feces.
