Excessive Growth

Bloomington City Hall

Case Date:
7/18/2020

Previous post closed without being fixed. There is excessive growth/weeds coming out of the street between sidewalks and road itself making our city look trashy and not maintained. Incident was closed bc “they wernt blocking sidewalk.” That is irrelevant. I would like to know who closed the last complaint. Tax paying citizens are paying for the streets and sidewalks to be maintained.

Drainage or Runoff

1313 S Grant ST

Case Date:
7/18/2020

There is often a fairly substantial amount of water flowing down the street on Wilson St (between Palmer St and Grant St). I'm not sure where it comes from, but it seems out of place.

Parks & Playgrounds

1005 W RCA Park DR

Case Date:
7/17/2020

People using the field at RCA Park as a dog park; two bully-breed dogs off leash. Owners were smoking on park grounds and did not pick up dog feces. The dogs were not in an enclosed area and at one point ran onto the playground where there were small children playing. This was extremely unsafe. Dog owners drive a large red ford truck with black trim. License plate CBL917. Please investigate so these people know not to do this again. I fear for the safety of the people who visit the park. Thank you!

Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

1417 S Rogers ST

Case Date:
7/17/2020

I have plumbers at my house now doing extensive digging to resolve a backup in the main sewer line. They believe the blockage is within city jurisdiction. We have had sewage spewing into our shower and the toilet won't flush the last 24 hours

Parks & Playgrounds

229 W Grimes Ln, Bloomington, IN 47403, USA

Case Date:
7/17/2020

Can you clarify if smoking is allowed at the new switchyard park? We were there last night to play Bocce, and a large group was congregating (ant not playing Bocce) on the courts, smoking. There was another group smoking in the shelter near the splash pad. If smoking is not allowed, will there be any enforcement?

Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

2840 S Brookside DR

Case Date:
7/17/2020

My sewer has been backing up in my basement for several weeks. Roto Rooter came out to identify the problem. They found that my line is "party line" and is attached to my neighbor's line. The lines meet in his driveway and my line crosses through his front yard (see photos). Our houses were built in 1962. I know talking to the plumbers that this is illegal. To make it better, my neighbor is deceased (died in November) and the house is a foreclosure. No family is wanting responsibility for the house. We tried to call the bank to see what to do. The driveway and front yard will need to be dug up to move and replace the pipe. Who can I speak to to discuss how to proceed with this and (honestly) who will help pay for it?

City Performance

Bloomington City Hall

Case Date:
7/16/2020

Disappointing to read that local police don't want to actually promote public health and assist with a mask ordinance. Definitely lends credence that they are only interested in heavy-handed "crimefighting" and not true public safety. Bloomington, it's time to move from a police approach to a public safety approach. You can argue against defunding the police all you want, but when police only want to "save" people with guns and force instead of public health, we're no better than those departments on the news; we're only killing people in a different way. Time to rethink the way we are caring for our community. More nurses, social workers, and compliance personnel and less bearcats, bullets, and badges, anyone? I'm not even a rabblerouser, just sick of political hypocrisy.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

1800 S Henderson ST

Case Date:
7/16/2020

The summer road construction left the northbound lane of S. Henderson gravel with no pavement. This was a fine temporary solution, but the extended length of the lack of pavement has resulted in extremely rough and pitted roadway. Drivers are choosing to drive North in the Southbound lane instead and causing dangerous traffic situations. Can someone expedite either adding more compacted gravel or actually paving this piece of road? It is dangerous to drivers and their vehicles.
