First off, I want to say thanks for the stop sign that was recently installed on 7th St at the B-Line trail crossing. This is much appreciated but I have a suggestion for a small change to help improve safety even further. I walk that intersection multiple times a day and see cars that seem to think it is a 4-way stop. If a car stops (and TBH most do not stop) I have seen multiple cases where the car thinks they then have the right away and proceed in front of crossing bikes and pedestrians. My suggestion is to add signage that says "cross traffic does not stop" or similar which is very common for other 2 way stops around the city. That would just be one more sign to the drivers that the trail traffic has the right away and is not required to stop. Thanks!

Homeless encampment in the woods on what I can only gather is public land but I'm not sure if someone owns it. They have completely trashed the area in and around these woods. They do drugs, are loud and dangerous. They have a bunch of cars and trash on N Summit close to the woods they stay in. There is trash all around the vehicles. I don't think they should be allowed to trash the neighborhood and cause issues.

There is a homeless camp developing in the woods on North Summit Street, between W 11th St and W Cottage Grove Ave. We live right next door on W Cottage Grove Ave. There are mountains of trash accumulating, used syringes on the ground, broken glass, yelling and screaming at all hours of the day and night, people loitering in the middle of the street so people can't get through, people changing in the street, broken glass, and numerous inoperable vehicles taking up the entire street that some are living in, in addition to the tents. I understand this may be private property, but given that we got a fine simply for our trash bin accidentally being outside an extra day, there has to be something that can be done. We will continue to report it and report it until it is handled effectively. I do not feel safe or comfortable going to and from my house or walking my dogs, and there are several children that live in this vicinity. The Boys and Girls Club and Middle School are right down the road. I know the homeless issue is rampant in Bloomington and there were two recent homeless campsite evictions. In the news, one of the homeless men interviewed said they were just going to move further down the B-Line. Well, here they are. This isn't safe or sanitary and is disturbing the peace of mind of the hardworking individuals who actually live here.

Hello,
I have spoken to Jennifer about an issue with two, different neighbors parking vehicles on their front lawns, with plenty of street parking available. This is the second of two submissions. Address: 3542 N Windcrest Drive 47404 - Fritz Terrace - This address cycles thru a number of vehicles that park on the front lawn, despite ample space on the street.
