The traffic-calming roundabout at W 6th and Oak is missing its east-facing reflector. On a related issue, the roundabout at 7th and Oak has a west-facing reflector that needs to be straightened.
The dogs at this house are left in the backyard almost all the time, even when the owners aren’t home. They bark incessantly.
Directly in front of One City Center on the 7th Street side, the ground has opened a large hole at the edge of the sidewalk that has gotten increasingly bigger over the past couple of weeks. It is very much a fall hazard, especially with the upcoming winter should the ground be covered with snow etc.
Street limbs overhanging the street low down, blocking visibility for cars, especially turning at the intersection
AEG was working again in our tree plot yesterday. The storm drain just west of our house, at the alley, is caked with mud and trash. This is the third time they have dug in this plot and the third time they have left a mess. We aren’t cleaning it up this time.
There are several patches of many deep potholes on W 6th St between Adams and Waldron. I have popped two bicycle tires in the last two months because of the state of the road. This is my only means of transportation for getting to campus and causes regular problems for me and my roommate.
There are a series of deep potholes between Adams St and North Waldron that are both difficult to see at night and difficult to avoid during the day with cars parked alnog the street. It needs repaving. I have recently popped two of my bike tires on this road that I commute on multiple times daily.

Bloomington's traffic signal timing is, in general, inadequate. Traffic patterns in the city are highly variable, changing drastically as students arrive and leave with the university schedule and as new student housing is constructed. It would be wonderful if the city were to invest in a system which changes traffic signals in real time as a function of data collected from sensors at intersections. Surely there will be graduate students, postdocs, and faculty in the Luddy School eager to help out with a cool "smart city" project...
