On a whim, I decided to watch the 2/25/25 BPW meeting on CATS this morning. I was very disappointed to hear the casualness that the closed sidewalk on Lincoln was handled. Whether it is contiguous or not, it is still one of the only options of refuge for a pedestrian to walk with relative safety. The impression I got from the city staff is that it is expected and welcomed for pedestrians to just use the road. I understand that construction needs to happen, I just hope that in the future pedestrian considerations are treated with more care even if it is a small section! This is a long enough project (June 2027!) that I hope staff can look and see if other options are available.
Someone tagged the new brick retaining wall on West 17th St last year, and Carrie Winkel reported it. Today we discovered a backpack full of needles and narcotics paraphernalia strewn on the sidewalk below the tagging. Maybe it means something? So we are asking again that the city remove the graffiti. It is on the retaining wall where Lindbergh St. tees into W. 17th. It's a public wall, not private. I am requesting on behalf of Crescent Bend Neighborhood Association.
There are many abandoned cars parked in the city right of way.
200735 just entered this ticket and can see it open but cannot add to it. There are four street lights not working that are on the west side of the street including mine. You can clearly see this is not fixed.
The streetlight on the southeast corner of Morton and 9th is out. I submitted to both Duke and the City of Bloomington and both said it was not their light. Is there another party that is responsible for maintenance of this light? There are multiple of the same type of light down the east side of Morton and all are working.
There are no lights on this street, at all. The lack of light makes it feel even more unsafe and allows the transients in the area to break into cars and houses.
Don't wait 7 days to respond to sidewalk snow removal complaints and then mark them "closed" when it's 54 degrees out and all the snow is melted. Cool how you can just not do your job if you wait until the snow is melted. Maybe we should stop plowing the streets too?
Additional request for street light. There have been multiple times where BPD has responded to fights and medical related issues at neighboring properties. At least 2x/month I am woken up late in the night by someone trying to open doors or windows. Last night someone slept on my closed-in front porch. Neighbors are also in support of a street light and have asked me to file this on their behalf as well. uR#199547 was most recent filed that I am aware of.
