City of Bloomington (Historic Preservation Commission?)
My wife and I recently purchased and moved in to 348 S Morton St, which is on the Indiana Historical Registry.
Earlier this month, using uReport Case 181400, we requested Parks & Rec to help with some heavy brush between S Morton St and the B-Line (they were very responsive -- nice job Paula and Team! :-)).
Reviewing the work after clearing was done, walking along the B-Line trail, just below 348 S Morton St, I noticed some block/stone work that might be quite old (pic attached). It appears the block/stone work is there to shore up the embankment for a considerable stretch of S. Morton St.
Now that it's visible, it appears that this block/stone work is in a state of disrepair :-(
A couple of thoughts:
• Is it possible this could be looked at to see if this block/stone work has any historical significance
• There could be some concern that this block/stone work may not have the original integrity it was intended to have regarding shoring up the embankment along a stretch of 348 S. Morton St.

The stop sign on the northeast corner is set very far to the north of the street; I’ve witnessed many cars ignoring it because it is difficult to see. I suggest moving it into the raised planter bed, much like how the stop sign on the southwest corner is placed. The problem is made worse when a tall vehicle is parked near the corner, which makes the stop sign impossible for west bound traffic to see.

On Saturday September 10th my boyfriend (Bryan Castillo) took my dog Willie to get a bath and groom at House of Paws (aka Pawsitive Grooming, Daisy's Darling Dogs) with Shena as scheduled the day before. At 3:26 pm I received a call that there was an incident with my dog. I was told that she had a small cut that was not bleeding and if they should just hold my dog down and keep grooming or I can come in and hold her down to finish. After the call Bryan Castillo and I went over there to get our dog. When we arrived the groomer brought Willie out, when we saw the cut we were in shock. There was a 2-3 inch laceration between Willie's stomach and leg. The staff was blaming Willie for the incident. The groomers were negligent in handling Willie. We had to drive an 72 miles to the nearest urgent vet at 14069 Mundy Dr, Fischer, Indiana. Our dog received several stables to close the wound.

Please put more trash cans in front of our building. I am the director at 234 N. Morton at the Kadampa Meditation Center. We used to have trash cans in front and at the corners. No longer since the renovation of the corner of 7th and Morton st. Please add this to your budget as I am continually picking up trash. Especially in front of the bagel shop. It would help! Thank you for all you do!

For The past 2 weeks only one bathroom is unlocked. And in the morning there's a line to get into the bathrooms. If there's two bathrooms they should both be available for use. A lot of pickleball players are here. People walking past the beeline and it seems strange that with two bathrooms you would lock one. They both should be available to the public at all times.

Greetings.
I'm aware that the Lime scooters have a barcode with a unique identifier on them. This is akin to a VIN that vehicles have and which Parking Enforcement uses to issues tickets. I imagine the other shared-use motorized scooter company's have unique identifiers on them as well, because how else would the companies keep track of their products? Why then does the City not work with those, essentially, Vehicle Identification Numbers (VIN), to issue citations to then send to the companies? I know the business license states the companies are to require their users to photograph the scooter when done and parked. What is the point of that? Why is this photographic evidence not being used by the scooter companies to then pass down the enforcement to the user since they are supposed to have received proof of them parking correctly? Can someone please speak to this subject matter? I have been confused about the City's stance on why it is so difficult to enforce the rules around parking the scooters.
Thank you for your time.
