Drainage or Runoff

Water runoff is still an issue. I have reported this before and it is causing damage to my yard and basement. This area really needs a sidewalk or curb with storm drains.

The south-facing reflector sign in the traffic circle at 6th and Oak has been painted with the "Vain" tag that has appeared all over town. It has been there for a while now (a few weeks, perhaps). Thanks!
The trees and brush along the east side of Walnut reduce visibility for drivers turning from Blue Ridge Drive onto Walnut. These were trimmed recently, but have become a problem again after all the rain.

Hi! This intersection has a new pedestrian button. I've noticed here and a few other places that if you don't push the button, no walk sign comes on. I find this inconvenient and confusing, and I'm curious why it's set up that way. I would love to know if there's something I'm not thinking of. If there isn't a good reason for this, though, please reset it so that the buttons can activate the light, but it's not necessary to press the button to get the walk sign. In other words, the default should stay the same as it used to be before the buttons - the walk sign always comes on when appropriate, but the button can activate the light to change when there are no cars to do so. Please let me know if this doesn't make sense, as it feels a little clunky to type it out. Thanks!
Car has an expired registration and seems to be abandoned.
Trash lying on sidewalk and strewn around north side of property.
Trash was not picked up along maxwell today. I will leave the trash can out for now.
I would like to ask the City of Bloomington to begin considering steps to put ordinances, rules, regulations on these Bird Scooters that have infiltrated our city. I have seen almost every person riding in violation of the safety rules the company urges. There have been two people on a scooter, all of them without helmets, and riding on sidewalks/all over campus. They are getting parked on campus bike racks, cluttering up side walks, and generally are unsafe and without any kind of ordinance in place, could only cause potential risk to both car drivers, pedestrians, cyclists etc. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-45596449 There are known deaths on these modes of transportation. Indianapolis enacted an ordinance after unsafe crashes had occurred. Bloomington needs to be aware of the risk and make stations for these scooters with agreements on proper use.
