The two south pickleball court nets have holes in them. The one nearest the parking has the tape's treads undone so the ball slips through. We used the warbands from a N95 mas to tie it up. Helps a little.

In the parking lot and around the pickleball courts you have Johnson grass growing taller than me and I'm 5'2 that's going to seed. This is a very invasive weed and needs to be pulled and the seeds thrown away as soon as possible or you'll be fighting it for the next 20 years. I pulled some tassels from around the courts, but it's also near the parking in the shade on the end of the pickleball courts close to the basketball courts.

My property at [address] flooded again on June 18, 2025, continuing a long-standing pattern of stormwater failures. This area lies within FEMA Zone AE. I have lost two vehicles to flooding and continue to suffer property damage and personal risk due to repeated flood events.
The creek that repeatedly overflows lies just off my property line, meaning I have no ability to access, maintain, or control the waterway that causes these floods. Despite this, my home bears the damage. City crews have occasionally cleared culverts, but no long-term mitigation appears to have been performed. This remains a clear public hazard.
I am formally requesting inspection and corrective action by the City under Title 13 of the Bloomington Municipal Code, which mandates maintenance, inspection, and prevention of stormwater harm.
I have also contacted FEMA Region V to report this issue and request federal documentation.
Attached to this report is one photo showing flooding on my property during the June 18, 2025 event, after I had to relocate my vehicle to prevent further damage. A parcel map showing the property location in relation to the adjacent creek is also available upon request.
I ask that you please confirm this report is logged and provide a response or timeline for action.

A couple small potholes on W. Allen St. just east of the intersection with Fairview. This whole intersection should be carefully checked since there will be an art installation going in on June 14 via ESD. Thanks.

The trash and multiple appliances have now been stacked closer to my window (thx) but the grass overgrowth is so high and ticks and other critters are a concern. Also the contracted mowing crew from rental management will have huge challenges mowing the 3 feet out from the property of next door rental. 60 inch swath mower today. Property extends out from privacy fence sections approx 3 feet.
A power washing team is also coming soon. I see the former ticket is considered “resolved” and closed. I don’t know who is in charge of the renovations- seems like several crews. Meanwhile the right to a view and enjoyment of my premises seems to be getting closer to a legal issue.
