Excessive Growth

Sidewalk near NE corner of lot (along Cottage Grove) is becoming impassible due to invasive shrub overgrowth (an annual occurrence at this location). While they are cutting it back, they might as well also trim back the shrub on the SW corner of the same lot along Grant. It is just starting to be in the way.

Large shrub (bush honeysuckle?) at NE corner of lot has grown so much that it is now difficult to pass using the sidewalk on Cottage Grove. The property owner/manager (sign in yard says "Thatcher Real Estate") never shovels the sidewalk in the winter, but maybe the snow/ice complaints submitted to HAND earlier this year never made it to them. Probably good to be more proactive about this report, since the shrub is not going to just melt on its own like the snows did...

Gigabtye Contracted companies placed these while laying lines but have not returned to address their lack of filling in the side. This one just a great example but many if not all are this bad. Easy to fall into or wreck your bike if you don’t see the ruts on all sides. Especially for those of us who walk/ride at night. Where’s the oversight if any? Please fix these.

During the year, likely due to heavy construction equipment near my house the street to get to parking has become dilapidated. At this point whenever I pull into my driveway, the bottom of my car is hitting the ground and potentially being damaged.

Blocked Street
308 E Cottage Grove AVE
- Case Date:
- 4/9/2025
Not clear if this is the responsibility of 308 or 310, but there is a weedy tree on the south end of the property line between these two lots that has grown out a lot, so much so that it is hard to drive down the alley at this point, especially when there are tons of cars parked back there.
Potholes, Other Street Repair
823 N Dunn ST
- Case Date:

See case #201442 (https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=201442). Given that the fiber optic project is now "on hold" (= bankrupt?), can the City step in and correct some of the damage they caused? They drilled a hole in the SW part of the intersection of Dunn/12th. It is dangerous, since there are no sidewalks on Dunn and lots of people wander through this area at night on their way to and from The Standard" via the RR. Someone is going to get hurt if the hole is not filled soon or an animal might fall in, and since there appears to be a void beneath the street right at this location, a collapse could occur if a heavy vehicle were to drive directly over it.

There is a large bush/small tree that sticks out in the street so that when you pass there going towards Kinser Pike you have to go over into the other lane of the street. If another car is coming in the opposite direction one has to stop. This needs to be cut way back or removed. It's been that way for a long time.
