What are the safety protocols for lifeguards on duty? There are two lifeguards on duty for the main pool at 2:30 pm, but the elevated chairs designed for lifeguards to easily scan the pool are empty. Instead, both lifeguards are seated together, chatting on the staff bench. There are easily 60+ people at the Bryan Park Pool now and plenty of small children. Until this weekend, lifeguards at Bryan Park Pool used the elevated chairs all summer and rotated frequently. Follow-up to #192811: https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=192811

Does the City of Bloomington/Parks and Rec have a lifeguard:patron ratio that they implement? As of 1:30 pm, there are about 30 people in the main pool (not including the deep end) and only one lifeguard on duty. This lifeguard was seated in an oversight chair on the south side of the pool. When I asked the four off-duty lifeguards about the ratio, one told me that only a single lifeguard was sufficient for the whole pool for the number of patrons. He also indicated that they did not need to close off the west end of the pool to reduce the scan area for the lone lifeguard. However, after that, he did ask the seated lifeguard to go down to ground level to scan the pool.

This car has been sitting here for months. We would very much like to have it removed. It’s gross.

There have been 2 cars parked in the alley for over 24 hours and despite trying to make contact with those who live in 412 S Lincoln St, they have not moved their cars from the road. It is blocking my parking spot and access to my backyard. I have visitors coming who will get tickets if they do not move their vehicles from the road so I can access my parking. Additionally, there is a lot of through traffic in that alley so it may be a safety concern as well.

The people working on the fiber optic internet line left this hole in the road. There are lots of people who walk their dogs or bike in the dark, and I am worried that a dog will fall in it or it will cause injury to fellow citizens.

The noise from Organized Living (or Catalent, I'm not sure which one) is so loud I can hear it in every room with a window in my apartment well past 10 pm nightly (even past 2-3 am). The only places it is not audible are the bathrooms and closets with the doors closed. Is there anything that can be done about this?

Grass and weeds on the property are knee high. It does not appear that anyone is living there. This has been an ongoing issue for the past several years.
