I live at 3515 E Grandview Dr, Bloomington 47408. I have had drainage issues for a number of years where runoff during heavy storms causes flooding in my garage. Since the street was repaved last year my garage has flooded multiple time damaging my walls and equipment. I tried to dig a relief drainage ditch in the easement but the problem requires a complete re-digging of the ditch that over the years has filled with clippings and soil. The drain running under my driveway along the street is completely clogged with roots and debris. In addition, my water main broke over the winter and the city left a massive pile of gravel in the hole where the repair occurred mak8nh an eyesore as well as causing more drainage problems. I need this looked at as soon as possible since the flooding is getting worse, although the relief ditch has helped some.

It is almost 10pm on Monday, April 15, and there is a dog barking nonstop back in the woods it sounds like by the Rail Trail. 20+ minutes of barking easily tonight alone. It is dark and I am not going to find out where it is exactly. This dog barks quite a bit at nights and believe it is coming from the homeless camps back there east of the Rail Trail. I have seen dogs back there in the daylight. Is there anyway to get this looked into so that there are not dogs in the woods at these illegal camps barking at night? There are noise ordinances, and ordinances against camping on City property, and these camps are a nuisance. Get them removed.

My neighbor keeps tying his dog up on the front stoop and leaving him there. The problem is the dog can’t really move. He’s stuck on the stoop on maybe a 2-3 feet long tie up (at most) and he can’t run around or do anything but bark at the door to be let in. It’s beyond sad. He just got the dog recently so I’m thinking maybe he just needs to be educated.

A large homeless camp has been made in the past 24 hours. There are at least 10 people and a large dog. They also have been having fires. The area is at the end of Pinewood Drive on the opposite side of Clear Creek. This is a parkland where volunteers are currently working on the removal of trash and invasive plant species.

The vast majority of cars do not yield to pedestrians looking to cross the street using the crosswalk at the intersection of 3rd and Grant. Oftentimes when a car in one of the lanes yields to a crossing pedestrian, cars in the other lane will not yield and drive straight through the crosswalk when a pedestrian is attempting to cross. My concern is that eventually a pedestrian who thinks they are safe while crossing will be struck by a driver not aware of the law. I think Bloomington PD could generate a lot of revenue from tickets in just one day by having someone monitoring that crosswalk. Putting in a new sign that says the law is to yield could also be a solution.

I visit this area a few times a week and the yard as of late is looking less than appealling. I know 8" is the height limit and i am not sure it's that high but, the yard needs to be addressed. I do not like to complaint but, it is a nice neighborhood and i would like it to stay that way. Thank you.
