I am an MCIRIS and PD volunteer and have been removing invasive plants for over a year in SE Park. This week I have been removing mostly honeysuckle from the southeast side of the Renwick Blvd bridge over the creek and found a back pack the slope above the retaining wall just south of the creek. I resumed removing the invasive plants today and picked up the backpack to dispose of when I would finish today. When I picked it up the contents rattled. I saw what at first looked like a cell phone, but then discovered it was a case. When I opened the case saw that it contained a number of syringes. This case may have belong to an drug user. Having been instructed as a volunteer not to mess with these materials I put the backpack down and submitted this report

There are frequently creepy older men hanging around the Upper Cascades Park and Playground area. The same vehicles are often seen, with the occupants hanging around, then acting shifty and walking into the woods when another car approaches and that occupant also walks into the woods. The individuals then exit the woods at or close to the same time. Sometimes, the cars just park next to each other briefly and then leave. Then the "regular" car returns and waits for another vehicle to approach. Taken all together, it looks like drug deals going down on the regular. There is also litter all over the walking path in the woods and the Lions' Den picnic shelter.

There appears to be drug dealing going on in RCA Park. There is a black vehicle that appears to be involved with at least three undernourished pit bulls in and around the vehicle. If someone is approaching from the walking path the dogs bark and snarl. One appears to be secured by a thin rope. Why is there never a police presence in this area? I almost never see park security down here. It feels like parks and Rec has given up on keeping our parks safe.

We've been bothered recently during our regular evening visits to Switchyard Park to see a significant vagrant population who are smoking, drinking, and we're pretty sure we just witnessed a drug deal at the park pavillion. The police, so conveniently located in the park, need to actually be out patrollimg it!

The people living at this address were throwing glass bottles into the street around 2 am. I went out to ask them to stop, they told me "f*ck off" and continued throwing glass bottles into the street near parked cars. There were also tons of beer cans and other trash.

The Lime scooter I wrote you about days ago is still in the ditch along the edge of our property along South Sheridan. All told, the scooter has been there for about a week, first standing along the side of the road, and then lying in the ditch. Please come take this away.

Hello. I live at 3210 Kensington Park Drive. For more than a year, one of my neighbors has kept a vehicle parked along the curb in front of his house. It is an old BMW and covered with a tarp. The vehicle has flat tires and is never moved. Not only is this unsightly, but interferes with city services such as leaf pickup, snow removal, street cleaning, etc. I do not have the address of the house it is in front of, but it is about 4 doors to the west of my home, on the same side of the street. It would be obvious to see when you turn onto my street. I'm not sure where to report this, so if this is not the correct department, please advise. Thank you for any help you can give to me.
