The owner of this renter-occupied building (Tariq Khan) has not taken the garbage out to the curb for pickup in four weeks. Also, this home has rain gutters and downspouts that go directly into the ground or into areas between the home and neighboring houses - which is causing water damage to the neighboring houses.
Hello! I serve as the trail monitor @ Lower Cascades Pk. There is a sizable tree down and across the Overlook trail. Trunk diameter is est. 18 inches or more, with three sizable branches extending from the main trunk. I can climb through it but a number of individuals would have issues getting by.
The neighbor's dog escaped their property and attacked my cat. They have a 4-ft. chain link fence, which their dog can easily get under (and likely go over too). This is the second time their dog has done this. All I want is for them to either build a more secure fence or find another way to restrain their dogs. I'm mostly submitting this as documentation in case this happens again and they refuse to secure their dogs. Details: Their address is 5389 N Hanna Ct. They recently put tension wire on the the fence, but I don't think it's installed properly as it is 6-8" off the ground and loose. The fence is still loose or off the ground in many places. The dog is a German Shepherd. My cat only goes outside for a brief period each day in my yard while I'm standing there watching it. The dog did not attack me, but I did get scratched up trying to stop it from killing my cat. (I'm including the photo just as evidence that this event happened. I don't think the dog is dangerous to people.)
After the city did digging to put in the new internet system, we have a hole on our property that needs to be repaired.
Lawn is waist high. Hasn’t been cut yet in 2023. Please do something about it.
At the B-Link / Walnut intersection (east side), there is glass all over the trail.
Abandon house, grass has not been cut this year. Eyesore for the entire Prospect Hill Neighborhood.
We hope these comments will fall on fertile ground resolving a vacant feeling at the Farmer's Market. For many years, Medicare for All Indiana Bloomington, formerly known as Hoosiers for a Commonsense Health Plan, has had a booth in Information Alley, paying ahead for the whole season. Our booth has been well attended by market patrons by having many deep and important conversations about healthcare with people who live in the Bloomington area, other regions around Indiana, the US, and indeed, international students and visitors. COVID restricted our being at the market. Last year, the days the market was open for Information Alley, it frequently rained, so we cancelled several times. Today was our first day back for 2023. Information Alley felt like a ghost town. No food vendors and only two other booths, the Dems and the ballet students. What was missing was the spirit of a bustling market with people buying bread, coffee, tea, pastries, savory eggs and tamales. When we asked about the empty food area, we were told that it's the vendor fees keeping vendors out. We've been hearing this for many years. The popularity of the food vendors goes hand in hand with the market growers. Market growers we spoke with this morning expressed the same attitude. Each group, the food vendors and market growers, support the other in bringing people to the market. If in fact, it's the fee, then we believe that the decision is penny wise and pound foolish from what we witnessed today. The market is dull without the bustling food vendor area. The identity of Bloomington having a thriving farmers market is an asset to the entire community. We're curious just how much money is involved with fees for the food vendors. Are they being asked to subsidize the market without setting up in the heart of the market with covered space? How much do the total fees collected from food vendors add to the Parks and Recreation budget? And is the fee worth the alienation of food vendors in the long run? We look forward to hearing your response. Medicare for All Indiana - Bloomington Karen Green Stone Cathy Rountree Kris Campbell Rob Stone, MD
Grass not cut. Trash thrown in yard and left there (paper, cardboard, broken furniture items) trash can overflowing in driveway (always). Their chickens running around in neighbors' yards.
