There’s a woman who sleeps and/ or stays under the old Small Favors back entrance who routinely shouts at passersby all day, every day. For years now. She definitely needs help of some sort, but those of us who love or work down here are pretty fed up.

Over the hill behind the apartment complex in the wooded area there is an abandoned campsite that needs to be cleaned out. There are needles all over the ground. The trash and an old tent have been removed but not the needles.

No issue, just a suggestion. Please consider public restrooms and water bottle filling stations in the downtown area and along Kirkwood and/or 4th street. With so many street fairs, outdoor festivals, etc. It seems ridiculous that a thriving city such as what Bloomington is would not have these amenities for it's populous. I figure if Nashville, Indiana can have public restrooms, why don't we?

Transient man screaming and yelling outside City Hall first thing this morning (around 7AM timeframe). Individual was screaming about pointing guns at him and repeatedly talking to himself. Staff feel uncomfortable entering the building this early in the AM without other security measures in place. The individual then began approaching cars as more staff pulled up for the day to park and come inside City Hall. Again, it is uncomfortable as an individual to leave vehicle and walk alone with someone being unstable and yelling at you. Is there someone on site beginning around 7AM at all?

Bloomington Fire Department Chief of Planning Tania Daffron couldn’t plan her way out of a paper bag. Her incompetence has repeatedly cost the department in reputation, dollars, and in wasted man-hours. She should have a performance review and her position should be terminated.

I have been smelling smoke in the evenings that I believe may be coming from homeless encampments along the Rail Trail, the gravel road parallel to the Rail Trail, and other City Property in the woods. The homeless were already removed from these city properties. The City needs to continue to monitor this area and enforce city ordinances and other rules and laws against camping there. Check the entire stretch of woods from Country Club Drive to Gordon Pike and kick everyone out immediately. Do not let this problem continue, as it was a major issue in 2024 with dangerous fires, numerous police searches for armed and wanted individuals living and hiding in the camps, fights between homeless, and a general threat to the health and safety of any citizen using the trail system. Please investigate and continue to monitor to make sure there are no homeless camps now or in the future in that area of the city. It is a horrible problem to allow it to get rooted in the woods there, so stop it as soon as possible.
