this empty lot or parking lot is a dumping ground for some reason,there was a dumpster there before and i picked up trash and put it in there, now theres no dumpster and trash, and bags of trash are just laying there. needs attention. thx always just tring to help keep our city cleaner.
excessive trash on front of house.
Trash bins being stored on sidewalk and in full view of the street.
Trash bins being left on street. Several properties in the block are also doing this.
Invasive plants (bush honeysuckle?)on NW corner of property along Cottage Grove have grown out so far that the sidewalk is almost unusable. A wheelchair could probably not easily navigate it without getting stuck in the grass of the ROW. Should be trimmed back to property line, at least.
Hello. There is a large amount of gravel at the beginning of the sidewalk near switchyard park. My gf's son was biking and he slipped on the gravel while turning onto the sidewalk on their way to the switchyard park. I think it needs to be cleared to prevent similar accident from happening. Thank you!
Pavement at 504 E Lakewood Drive needs swept before more pavement can be added
Pavement @ 2922 ramble road west needs swept before more pavement can be added
The security fence set up to hinder people from crossing RR property at Dunn has been cut through and people are now walking across, even when the train is coming. This necessitates the train conductors to blow their horns loudly to clear the tracks at this location when they pass by (at all hours). When "The Standard" is full of 1000+ entitled undergraduates, they will likely all use this passage to make their lives easier. Who is actually responsible for maintaining the wall/fencing that blocks illegal and dangerous crossing of the tracks stretching from Walnut to Indiana Avenues? It was not so bad when Brownstone was still there, but since the beginning of the "Standard" construction project (that has been going on sporadically for two years now), the barrier has slowly degraded. Is this a matter for the police or the "Standard" property owners or the City or the adjacent property owners? We fear that there will be a high rate of late-night, drunken crossings coupled with the likely concomitant periodic deaths if something is not done about this. Does Bloomington rally want to continue to be known for a place that allows (encourages) dangerous and unhealthy behavior? It's bad enough that scooters are allowed (how many deaths have they caused so far?) - does the City now want there to be regular RR accidents that result in beheadings, or worse?
Sidewalk project is complete, but the large signage was left behind. See west side (front lawn) of property along Grant.
