Parking on Unimproved Surface
600-698 W 13th St, Bloomington, Indiana, 47404

Hi there, I sent a request for info last year regarding the parking/tree-plots on 13th St. between Maple and Jackson (uReport case number #163321).
Just wanted to let you know that a truck and crew just came by, and poured and smoothed out a small amount of asphalt, in what I was told was an original tree plot, across the street from my house... Again, as stated in my earlier request, I would love to have the tree-plots back, which would actually help slow the traffic down on 13th Street between Maple and Rogers.... or if not, then maintained shoulders for parking, but the response was that they were just tree plots, and that we could get ticketed if we parked on them.
The problem is, they are currently all gravel/mud pits and everyone parks on them... except now we have a 9' stretch of asphalt on this one area only?
Not sure what's going on here. Are they tree plots? Are they parking? Are they all going to get paved? Are we going to be ticketed if we park on them, even if we park on the parts that are freshly paved? Can they instead be turned back into tree plots like they have on 12th Street?
Thanks for any information you might have!

Fourth Street sidewalks and street pavement conditions between Washington and Rogers Streets (and perhaps further). The roadway is littered with potholes, cracks, undulations, bumps and is generally in poor condition (all of this precedes any activity around the fourth street garage, serendipity construction and Vectren pipe or line modifications). The roadway and sidewalk are not suited for cars, bikes, scooters, power chairs nor for the emergency vehicles, school buses and city transit buses that utilize it. Pretty much the same for the sidewalks.

Two large branches are blocking the opening for this Stormwater drain to Cascade Park. They are beginning to collect debris and make a total blockage. This is the major output for the entire cascades neighborhood and will cause severe flooding during heavy rain if not addressed ASAP.

I see signs like this all over town: hiring nurses, Student Painters, buying houses, matrasses for sale, etc. If you tell me that signs like this are legal, then I will shut up. Also, opposite the exit for Menard's on Liberty Drive, there is a whole forest of signs with services being offered. This particular sign for S.O. Industries is on the corner of High Street and E Second, but there are more of them on the east side.

Hi, There is a large old travel trailer parked on Maple Street, between 8th and 9th Streets. It has been there for at least a month. There is an electric cord stretched across Maple from the house across the street that has been connected for at least the past week. It appears that the owner is "camping" on a public street. The trailer is an eye-sore, is not mounted on stable footings, and is taking up several parking spaces for the neighborhood. The location and size of the trailer make it difficult to see around the corner when approaching the intersection. Is living in a trailer on a public street allowed? Thanks for looking into this.
