I have been a teacher at the Project School for 3 years now and we are in desperate need of more clear signage that Smith Ave is a one way street going west, especially now that Chocolate Moose has started food truck fridays again. I'm guessing because of the bike lane and the stop sign going East it may confuse drivers, but I think we need paint on the road with arrows and more one way signage.
Eighth Street is extremely poorly lit. From Walnut all the way to Fess there are almost no street lights and its extremely dangerous. I feel unsafe walking home from the IU campus at night, or even walking home from a restaurant in the evening. The lack of street lights in this area is simply ridiculous. The city of Bloomington has an obligation to make sure its citizens are safe and it is neglecting to do so. The area that is the subject of this complaint is the exact same street in which Hannah Wilson was abducted and murdered, and within the last month the exact same street has been the location of an armed robbery. There is plenty of evidence to suggest that something must be done to make this area safer. The city has a responsibility to do everything within its power to protect its citizens, and adding a few streetlights hardly seems like an impossible task.
I was harassed by a homeless person because I would'nt give him money. Until a city worker step between us,and I got to my office.thank you and God bless
Hello, At 7:30am, someone began jack-hammering the sidewalk immediately outside my apartment window at 222 N College Ave. There are several apartments facing that sidewalk at this location, and it is directly across the street from the Hilton Hotel. In other words, since many people may be trying to sleep in this area, it seems a bit unreasonable to start something so loud before 8am. Thanks for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, Kristen Strandberg
I lived near the intersection of 8th and Dunn this past school year. I felt extremely unsafe being outside after dark due to the lack of lighting around. I think the street, and its residents, would be much safer if there were more street lights.
Trash pickup dented our can and only took about half the trash.

What hubris this city has. It wants compliments, but there is no place to complain. I can't even get to the ombudsman anymore. There are no email addresses. I will NOT join any of the social media sites I hate the existence of to contact government. It is wrongdoing to re1quire them. My complaints: 1. The signal at walnut and smith is out of sync with the other signals, wasting gasoline to help idiot bikes. 2. Closing Rogers street is STUPID. They buyilt a bridge to connect Rogers street 20 years agon, and now the idiots in the city want to close it for a stupid tech park that will never be used. Today my wife missed her appointment (and had to pay for it anyway) because you closed streets for a totally unnecessary (LUXURY) foot race. It is supposed to be against state law to hold races on public streets. There was no way to get out of my neighborhood to get to a 9:00 am appointment.
Hello, there is excessive growth and illegal dumping behind my house at 1221 West 6th street. Someone has thrown a toilet back there. You can easily access the area via an alley way to the parking area behind the houses on Kirkwood. Thank you for your attention to this area. -J
Re: the street sign at the intersection of N Dunn St and E Tamarack Trail, why is one side spelled "Tamarack" and the other side spelled "Tamarrack"?
