From Reddit Bloomington: Fiber cables damaging sewer lines We live right next to Bryan Park. About a week ago our toilet backed up, and after multiple visits from our (very honest and reasonable) plumber, we discovered that the city's fiber optic internet contractor had carelessly run an optic cable directly through our sewer line. This caused a ton of debris to get into our drain pipe and completely clog the pipe, necessitating a $10k repair. I called the city and apparently, this is happening to people all over town. (The person in the utilities office said I was the third person to call today with this exact problem, and our plumber said that this contractor got thrown out of Carmel for damaging so many sewer lines).

The tennis court lights are not turning on in the evening. I was there Friday night from 7:00 PM until 8:30 PM expecting the lights would eventually turn on. They didn’t and everyone playing tennis had to leave because of the darkness.

Hi, There is a substantial amount of poison ivy along the path that cuts through the middle of Bryan Park, especially toward the east. It's right at dog/toddler height. Could this be eradicated? Thank you.

Dear Parks and Rec, Thanks for getting new pool lounge chairs at Bryan Park Pool! The other moms and I were just about over the broken old ones. Hopefully these new ones will last longer than the previous ones, which were almost always broken. The new ones have a better design. At high traffic times, I noted that people were still wandering around to find somewhere to sit or lay. Perhaps ordering a dozen more would be a good idea. Additionally, though people can certainly bring their own lawn chairs, I think it would be a good idea to have a dozen regular plastic chairs available for people who cannot sit comfortably on the low-to-the-ground pool lounge chairs. It's hard for grandparents or people with limited mobility to get up and down from the loungers. Thank you, Lucy Fischman 823 S. Fess Ave.

This is a follow-up on my complaint from 8/18, #173408, regarding the noise from the work on the tennis courts. The piercing truck backing-up noise went on late yesterday, possibly until around 8 pm. This morning it began at 6:40 am. Is this not a bit too early? Is 12-14 hours of this noise in a day not excessive? This noise has been going on all week. How much longer will it persist? Speaking with my neighbors, this noise is forcing us to risk covid and go into the office. Is there no way to turn down the volume on the warning beep? As bad as it is for me, I imagine this must cause some loss of hearing and sanity for the construction workers using the equipment.

The baby pool at Bryan park is significantly colder than the main pool. Babies need warmer water, not colder, especially now that they can’t take a break by going down the slides on their parent’s lap anymore.

My daughter and I are regularly using the Bryan Park Pool this summer and I am upset at the lack of cleanliness of the pool itself. I had a pool growing up and I understand completely the challenges of keeping a pool clean. But it is OBVIOUS that little to no skimming or use of the pool vacuum is being done. There is constantly dirt in the pool along with leaves and other debris, band aids, live crawdads and yesterday (June 27) and dead mouse. This is clearly pathetic on the Parks and Rec staffs part to keep the pool clean and sanitized. It opens at 11am, staff needs to be there a little early to check the pool thoroughly to make sure it is in proper conditions to use. Stacey D.
