On the lookout deck by the parking lot, there is a missing grate, so there is a leg-sized hole in the concrete. There is also a lot of broken class on the ground at the end of the lookout deck.
Sherwood Oaks park - there is a hole in the asphalt on the drive into the park. It looks deep and it’s big enough that a person’s foot could get stuck in it. Not to be dramatic, but when I saw it, I thought it might be the start of a sinkhole.
Near Sherwood Oaks Park, there is a hole in the road big enough to fit an arm. It is where the stream passes under the road near the parking lot.
I would like to know who is in charge of taking care of the fringe area between the Cascades golf course & the service road that abuts the properties of Northwood Estate? It seems that there is a dead tree covered over with scrap weeds, baby trees, poison ivy & all along that service road it has been really neglected. I used to walk across to walk. I cant anymore. It has gotten much worse this yr.
Basketball courts and skatepark are both packed at the new Switchyard Park. Are the state mandated guidelines being enforced here?
Our sub division Northwood Estates has been having a lot of trouble with drainage. It seems that the easements have overgrown scab trees & brush that may be blocking some water but it also seems as thoug your drainage system that takes the water to a creek needs to be cleaned out. We back up to the golf course & have trouble getting the golf course staff to maintain our side of the course, ie mowing, weeds, dead trees along the road,etc. We seem to be a bit neglected when it comes to these problems. Could you please send someone to look at our problem. Thanks, Mary Pearson
If can't park at Cascades can you add safety enhancements. As south end feels deserted and crime prone. Thank you.
On the webpage that describes the features of each City Park, Crestmont Park has nothing listed. As to avoid the appearance of bias against the low-income (ahem!), please fix this. Thank you. https://bloomington.in.gov/parks/parks
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.
The last couple of times we've visited the Switchyard park to play Bocce, the benches along the courts were overrun with people sleeping, drinking, and smoking. Not a very inviting or family friendly atmosphere. We also witnessed the same behaviours, along with what appeared to be drug use in the shelter house next to the playground. Will there be any enforcement of the rules at the park?
