I am writing to bring attention to an issue I am facing as a new homeowner at 909 W Cardinal Ct, Bloomington, IN. There is a runoff in my backyard that originates from a creek in a nearby park. This runoff significantly affects the usability of my property, as I am unable to extend my backyard or fully maintain the lawn beyond my fenced-in area due to flooding. As the homeowner, I am responsible for cleaning and mowing the area on the other side of the fence, but i cannot access this space due to the water accumulation. I have reviewed the blueprint and property lines (LOT 4), and I do not believe there should be a body of water running through my backyard. I am also aware that my neighbors have previously complained about this issue, and I would like to resolve it so that I can fully enjoy and utilize my entire property. I would greatly appreciate your assistance in addressing this matter, as I am paying a substantial mortgage but am unable to fully access my entire property. Thank you for your time and consideration.

This large branch appears to be broken but is hanging directly above the walking path in Bryan Park. It is located along the path that goes alongside the creek, east of the restroom and near the corner of the fence for the pool.

The lesser celandine (an invasive plant species) is almost in full bloom along the southern end of the Bloomington B Line Trail. It extends the width of about 3 lots along the trail. I thought it would be good to report since it's spreading quite rapidly. It used to only be around the wooden stairs that the neighbor installed on Bloomington Parks property (see photo). Also there is Japanese Knotweed in the area that is currently a small patch, but can spread quickly. The knotweed has not yet emerged from the ground.

Is this broadband or sidewalk related? Concrete saws at work all over my neighborhood. That cut and some possibly related cracks running from utility covers to the curb are the first since I had my sidewalk replaced in the mid-1990s. For good reason, I assume.

The city only picked up half of the trash from our bin this morning. I tried to call the sanitation department and selected the option for customer service, the line goes dead after that. We have a small trash can so this is going to create a trash back log for us. We would appreciate if it someone could come pick it up. Thanks.
