My husband and I were at the trail head parking lot and saw a woman go into the woods along the creek and then came out of the woods carrying a trap. Is this allowed? If so you should post signs warning people. A child or dog could easily slip into the woods and get injured.
The dog water fountain has not been working for many weeks.
Water fountain is not shutting off properly. It runs a little constantly.
Switchyard Dog Park, Large Dog enclosure Please erect a barrier promptly, around the collection of mud + water about 25 feet from the entrance. During my 1st visit with my dog on Saturday, 9-11, he noticed the area by following another dog into the mud. Note there is no hose + water source to rinse dogs, unlike Ferguson Dog Pk, which has this resource during non-winter months. In addition to causing damage to the interior of my car, the muddy substrate was not easily cleaned. A rash has developed in several areas of my dog's skin. Water alone did not remedy the muck; standard dog shampoo fared a bit better. I diluted Dawn dish detergent, which worked best but likely added to the discomfort of the rash. We have a veterinary appt on Monday to address. Again, please erect a barrier around this area and also plan for long-term, engineering solution. Thank you. (I also suggest the installation of water hoses and will submit that separately.)
On the North loop side of the lake, there are those steps going up to the dam from what used to be the old dog park. Yesterday I nearly fell when I stepped on a loose step, the fourth one down from the top. The nails are barely in and the wood can tip out of place as you step on it.
Along the trail next to the train tracks between N Pete Ellis Dr. and State Rd 46 the bushes need to be cut back. In some places it's impossible for bikers and pedestrians to see what's ahead or for bikers to safely pass pedestrians.
Power lines have been hanging down within reach on the sidewalk in front of switchyard park entrance off Rogers st for several months. Very dangerous situation!
Lights out report along the B-line: 84, 67, 58, 56, 60, light between and opposite side from 26&24, 22, 14, and 40 is very weak.
Power outlet has faulted on light post just inside skatepark boundary next to limestone bench.
There appears to be a termite infestation at the Park Ridge park on Longview Avenue.
