Switchyard Park playground, there's a patch of the play surface that's ripped and sinking in. My friend's kid stepped in that spot while running to play and it tripped her. If you are at the large black swings on the south end of the playground, walk north from the right and middle swings, going between the two orange swing structures north of the black swings, and you'll trip over it too.

Switchyard Park - at the kids playground, the large black swings at the south end are really squeaky. Can someone go over there with a ladder and a can of WD-40 or other lubricant and see if that helps quiet the swings? Thanks.

Merry go round needs to be lubricated because it turns slowly.

The tree inside the large dog park has a large diameter dip around the base of it. This dip is constantly filled with very rank smelling water and I along with all other dog owners have discussed how unhappy we are that we must bathe our dogs anytime we take them to get exercise. My dog needs consistent exercise and the best way to do this is at the dog park, but constant bathing can cause skin to dry out. At one point, the city had placed a temporary barrier around it so I believed there was hope for a solution, but since then the barrier has been taken down.

Hello....along with many other Bloomington residents, I enjoy taking my pup to the Switchyard dog park. What a great facility the city is providing. Most of the owners are very responsible about picking up after their dogs and use the waste bags provided at the park. I have noticed, however, that owners are not as responsible while walking along the pathways from the parking areas to the dog parks. I would like to suggest that doggie waste stations be installed at several points along the pathways to encourage owners to pick up after their pets. Thank you for your consideration.

Outside the homeless shelter at switchyard park off the walking path are hundreds of cigarette butts. This is making the area look very trashy as well as dangerous for wildlife/animals. Please hold people that litter accountable. Please also talk to shelter organizers to provide trash stations for cigarette butts and help educate people responsible for littering.

Could you please fill dirt around the trees in the large dog park? It has been over a year since I've visited the dog park, and the swamplands around the trees is still not fixed. Creating a hill around the tree will allow the dirt to compact into flat land for future grass growth. Thank you.
