Pothole, northbound lane of kinser Pike
About ten "Bird" scooters are parked on the street on Grant just north of 7th. There is no scooter corral at this location, and they are blocking a parking spot for cars.
A big, white delivery van parks here often. It leaks oil and has created an oil patch on the street out front.
The owners of this house leave a boat parked on the street at least 5 days/nights a week. It is in a cul-du-sac. In addition to the boat, they park at least one, sometimes two huge trucks on the street. This makes it difficult for, not only neighbors to get through the street, but also the trash truck and possibly emergency vehicles.
The asphalt in this intersection is super rough when driving east or west. There's no specific potholes, it's just lots of patches and ridges and edges.
There are people doing drugs and sleeping in the mini barn in back of the empty house. I’m afraid and the police wouldn’t come out because I don’t own the property.
The meters in front of 401 w Seventh st were installed backwards. To feed the meter it should face away from the car/street just like the rest of the meters around town. When looking for a parking spot I look for meters flashing green so I can save some money. These meters are backwards - so you can’t see if it is flashing red or green
I tried to use this area to have a quick meeting with colleagues before going to an appointment at a business on the square. This area was unavailable due to the mess. Balloons, needles, beverage cans, etc. (The yoga mat is mine.) Further, these benches are damaged and appear to be unmaintained. I then moved to the corner of the square where no needles were visible. There I was immediately solicited by panhandlers twice. All of this is unacceptable and I hope to see these areas cleaned and maintained on a proper schedule. The frequency with which I am required to defend myself physically against panhandlers here is becoming unbearable. It is unsafe to be downtown in Bloomington, Indiana.
