The issue: bicycles & pedestrians on the Canal Trail are not stopping at the stop sign at 3496 Whitney Avenue in front of M&T bank. Ignoring this stop sign is especially dangerous because vehicles turning into the parking lot from Whitney Ave might not realize the Canal Trail crosses the entrance to the parking lot. Even if you are aware of the Canal Trail and watching the Trail as you turn some bicycles are going so fast that they are not within view until your vehicle is turning into the parking lot. If you go watch from the M&T lot for 5 minutes you will see at least close accident between a vehicle and a bike at this intersection.

Green slide has come off of its base

Fencing needs repair next to the canal

Thank you

On the canal trail on one of the hills when going south past the Sanford st over pass (before the tunnel)there is a patch of gravel and dirt/mud from all the rain we’ve had. When going down the hill it makes for a dangerous bike ride especially when someone is coming up the hill. Is there anyone who can sweep/shovel it off to make for a safer ride? The Smilow Closer to Free 25 mile riders will be traveling on this in September.

The gate at Legion Park playground is broken. The side closest to the baseball fields.

The scoreboard for field 3 is not operational and needs to be repaired.

Extremely bumpy/unsmooth

Legion Field in bad state - basepaths over grown, weeds, lawn not cut, batting cages have holes, lines not painted. Once a great local field in a state of disrepair similar to others around town

Re mark walking trail tenth mile and mile markers so people can identify where they are in case of emergency

The swings at the playground at legion field are was too low to the ground and need to be raised. After the rubber mats were installed on top of the wood chips it raised the ground so much my 4 year old can’t swing properly without catching his feet on the ground . He has hurt his foot and fell off the swing multiple times because of this. Please raise them , it is a very quick and easy fix.

The park was mowed recently (Thank-you!) but...between the poison ivy, bittersweet, ticks and mosquitoes, it would be great to have the overgrowth trimmed back from pathways, walkways and even the pond.
