Invasive plants (bush honeysuckle?)on NW corner of property along Cottage Grove have grown out so far that the sidewalk is almost unusable. A wheelchair could probably not easily navigate it without getting stuck in the grass of the ROW. Should be trimmed back to property line, at least.
The security fence set up to hinder people from crossing RR property at Dunn has been cut through and people are now walking across, even when the train is coming. This necessitates the train conductors to blow their horns loudly to clear the tracks at this location when they pass by (at all hours). When "The Standard" is full of 1000+ entitled undergraduates, they will likely all use this passage to make their lives easier. Who is actually responsible for maintaining the wall/fencing that blocks illegal and dangerous crossing of the tracks stretching from Walnut to Indiana Avenues? It was not so bad when Brownstone was still there, but since the beginning of the "Standard" construction project (that has been going on sporadically for two years now), the barrier has slowly degraded. Is this a matter for the police or the "Standard" property owners or the City or the adjacent property owners? We fear that there will be a high rate of late-night, drunken crossings coupled with the likely concomitant periodic deaths if something is not done about this. Does Bloomington rally want to continue to be known for a place that allows (encourages) dangerous and unhealthy behavior? It's bad enough that scooters are allowed (how many deaths have they caused so far?) - does the City now want there to be regular RR accidents that result in beheadings, or worse?
Trash bins have been lying on the street for a week.
2 large potholes in center of street in front of 1314 South Dunn Street
Popo. Southbound Walnut Street at the intersection of Grimes Lane.
There is pothole on westbound Country Club Dr west of Walnut and across from Grease Monkey shop.
I have a large pothole in the street at the end of my driveway. It's the result of people swerving around the speed bump in front of my house and eroding the edge of the road. I would be very grateful to have it repaired as it is quite deep. It was coldpatched during the winter but that has crumbled and worked its way out. Thank you very much, I appreciate your attention to this email.
