We came on the of 8/24 and they capsized a boat with 2 people in it and then we returned the next weekend and they loaded the boat improperly and we didn't even get to enjoy ourselves because we were to busy trying to keep the other boat from Going in circles because they put the larger person in the front and when I tried to let him know he rolled his eyes at me and walked away then still charged us the full amount
Missing person info not needed as person has died. I saw this today at Griffey lake parking lot. I am a member of church where Owen Busey parents attend
I've been trying to email griffy.boathouse@bloomington.in.gov to do boat rentals but every time I send an email it gets bounced back with the message. "We're writing to let you know that the group you tried to contact (griffy.boathouse) may not exist, or you may not have permission to post messages to the group. A few more details on why you weren't able to post:" I got the email from this page https://bloomington.in.gov/parks/parks/griffy-lake/boathouse
There are pieces of glass on a portion of Trail 2 at Griffy Lake. I attached a screenshot of the AllTrails map and highlighted the portion of the trail where we noticed it. It feels oddly intentional… there are at least three different types of glass (green, brown, and clear), all pieces are all relatively small, and they are spread out pretty evenly. I unfortunately did not take a picture of any of the glass. I also did not continue on that portion of the trail to know if the issue is more extensive.
About 2:30, 1/11/24, twelve cars were at Griffy Lake dam parking lot, with two more, both City vehicles, and I asked one of them "Do bladders and bowels stop working in winter?" At first, no comprehendre. I said, why is the rest room locked? I asked them to pass on my complaint, and the guys directed me to U-REPORT. After my run at 3:30, 18 cars were in the parking lot, none city vehicles. Griffy Lake sees more than 50 cars a day, perhaps more than 100 - where the rest room? This is plainly a sanitation issue. If there's no restroom, at least walk the trails with a pooper-scooper!
I've noticed the systematic cutting of the wild grape vines throughout the Griffy Nature Preserve. These are native Indiana plants used as food by wildlife, not an alien invasive species. Why are these being cut from the nature preserve? Shouldn't this area be allowed to remain as wild as possible?
The connecting footpath between Greenwood Avenue and Southdowns is blocked by honeysuckle. My daughter was knocked off her bike yesterday. I have written to the council about this problem in previous years. Perhaps the honeysuckle could be cut back more significantly, or this could be put on a regular maintenance rotation? This is part of the 'safe routes to school' in the neighborhood, so trimming before the school start would be great. It's a quick job. Thank you!
One week ago, people were laying internet cable in our neighborhood. They left last Friday, but there are still sizeable holes in the streets, each of which is an injury and lawsuit waiting to happen. My yard has a hole in the grass and a pile of dirt. There are no covers for these holes, and they are very dangerous for kids and adults (its a walk-to-school route). This work was carried out with no notice to the households, and they left it unfinished with no safety precautions. I live at 1011 S. Greenwood Ave. This photo is of one the holes at the corner of Rose and Dexter, which I have to avoid while biking to work. It's about 10" across. Can you make sure that these holes are covered and that the dirt in my yard is cleared up? Thanks.
Thank you for moving the bus stop north 100 ft out of the old bus egress places to places closer to real reasonable places nearer the sidewalks.
Please consider adding scooter corrals in Green Acres. Suggestions for location - the traffic calming bump outs on 7th, the 4th street footpath, anyone of the several easements that are overgrown with invasives and border the roads.
