Potholes, Other Street Repair
803 S Washington ST
- Case Date:

My residence is located at 724 S. Washington ST. Two years November the Street Department performed pipe work in the middle of the street in a 2 to 4 block section. At the conclusion of the project the section of street was patched. Since then the section has been re-patched and re-patched. My concern is one of safety. S. Washington is a main thoroughfare for the Police Department traveling at high rates of speed. Loose gravel is sprayed every time cars drive through the area. This is also a highly used street for cyclists who commute to IU and other locations. The loose gravel from the re-patching creates unsafe pbike travel. Lastly, this section of street is unsightly. The bike lane lanes and curbs are unpainted and the patch work is broken and pot holed. I would certainly appreciate it if
the City of Bloomington Street Department would take a close look this Spring at a more permanent surfacing of this section of street. Thank you!

Hello! We have a streetlight at the corner of fairviw an Allen st. It is working and enhances safety, but also creates light pollution. It creates over-lighting on our porch and in our bedroom. I am happy to have streetlights, but am wondering if there is any way I and possibly my neighbors can work with duke/city gov in considering an alternative light with less light pollution. I have looked at some possible grants for non-polluting street lights. Thanks so much for your time!

What the heck is up with this sidewalk repair? It's been torn up for almost a month! I would hate to be one of the residents in that area with the orange cones and equipment left in the street. With the decent weather we've had this winter, you'd think projects such as this would be completed quicker.

Attempting to turn left onto Hillside onto Washington is extremely difficult during high traffic times. Contributing to this is the very poor sight line when attempting to see oncoming traffic - the hill up from walnut blocks westbound traffic to a degree, and the porch structure built to the property line at 202 E Hillside makes it very hard to see eastbound traffic. What could be done to make this intersection feel less perilous?

Hello,
I'm reaching out on behalf of my employer Hanapin Marketing. We currently reside in the Showers complex at 501 N. Morton Street, and our employees share the Showers Red Parking Lot with County employees. Over the last 6 months, we have all noticed a rise in crime in the parking lot, particularly with theft.
I've attached several police reports that have been filed in the last few months to support these claims. These are the incidents that were reported to the police, however, there have been others as well that were never filed. For example, in early January one of our employees had his door handle ripped off his car entirely. We are hoping that the city will notice this trend and assist us in our request to advocate for higher security and/or additional patrols in that area to deter thefts.
Please feel free to reach out with any other questions.
Best,
Pharyne Stephney

Case # 158345 has NOT been resolved, but yet Christina Smith has determined to close it. Her response was to have my step-daughter call a phone number to arrange permit payment. Problem being she has called this number numerous times and it is never answered. The bill has not been paid (although we'd love to pay it) so I fail to see how the case can be considered closed.
Do I have to call the BBB or seek private counsel to attempt to resolve this? I find it rather annoying that you make it next to impossible for anyone to attempt to do business with you.
