There are a couple of very deep holes on the large hill on the north end of the large dog area of the Switchyard dog park. I was not there to see this happen, but a gentleman I was just speaking with there said that he saw a dog get very injured when its leg was caught while running. They should be filled to prevent any further injuries. Thank you!
Snow plowed into sidewalk. Unable to walk on sidewalk.
There are multiple piles of Dog poop on top of the snow along each side of the B-line trail particularly at the Henderson St. end, from Black Lumber on. There is a dog bag station right there! Once the snow melts it will be harder to see.
There’s still snow on 3rd between Walnut and College, on the south side of the street adjacent to the county building used for early voting. And there’s still snow on either side of the overpass on 3rd leading to the B-Line trail. It hasn’t snowed in almost two weeks. Why build a trail for pedestrians if you don’t make it easy to get to the trail? Please do better in the next snowstorm.
Sidewalks are unwalkable due to snow from 2 weeks ago.
Snow and ice not removed from sidewalk, north side of 3rd St., west of College leading to the B-line.
Snow and ice not removed from sidewalk, south side of 3rd St. running along the north side of the convention center (west of College), including the stairs up to the B-line.
There is a fair amount of ice on the trail between 3rd and 4th. I know it may be melted before anyone checks this out, but I wanted to mention it to remind the city that it should comply with its own ordinance. Yesterday I complained about snow on the sidewalk leading to the trail and the overpass on the north side of third. Today the section adjacent to Vectren was fairly clear, and I appreciate that, but not along the closed former motorcycle shop at the corner of 3rd and Madison. I know the city wants to be bicycle and pedestrian friendly, and built the trail to help achieve that goal. But if the trail and the access paths to the trail are not passable, you are falling far short of that goal. The snow stopped ten days ago. Every road has been clear for more than a week, as have parking lots. But the sidewalks still suck. It’s obvious by the city’s actions where its priorities are. Please consider raising the fines for snow removal violations, and sharing the fees with the people who report the violations. . Thank you.

Thank you for clearing the path within Reverend Butler Park and most of the sidewalks around the park quickly after the snowfall earlier this month. Please finish the job by clearing the snow from the sidewalk on Fairview Street in the northeast corner of the park, from where the park path meets the Fairview sidewalk north to 10th Street. Snow and ice still covered this portion of the sidewalk as of this morning, January 17, more than ten days after the end of the snowfall. Please note Bloomington Municipal Code section 6.07.010(a) "It shall be the duty of every owner of any premises abutting a sidewalk in all parts of the city to remove, or cause to be removed, all snow and ice from the sidewalk to allow safe and reasonable travel on said sidewalk within twenty-four hours after snow or ice has ceased to fall or in any way accumulate."
