Three of my coworkers and I go to work at 6am and we get stuck waiting for the left arrow turn light on Patterson and 2nd to turn green. It takes almost 2 minutes before it will turn green.
Yard has had downed logs for over a year and no mowing
Trail construction crews blocked up streams with riprap and culverts, destroyed understory growth with mounds of soil left on trail side, and damaged numerous old trees with careless use of equipment
Tree limb hooked up on a high branch. 600 block of S. Park Ave. Hanging above the street, with danger of falling on vehicle or pedestrian
Three very large pipes have been lying in my yard for over one week now. I believe that this is for a contracted public works project. I do not want to approach the workers during this public health crisis as they are not wearing face masks. I would like to be able to mow my lawn this weekend, and I do not feel that the lawn of an occupied house is the appropriate place to store construction equipment. I would like to request that the workers are instructed to remove the pipes from my lawn either today (Thursday, April 09, 2020) or tomorrow. In the event that this is not a water-related project, I would assume the city has permits on file to communicate with the appropriate party.
Construction debris that has been here for years
Broken sidewalk
I found 3 syringes in my back yard on Saturday morning. I did notify police dispatch, but wanted to also inform the city. We also had someone walk by the side of our house yesterday evening and got very alarmed when they saw us. Said they were cutting through to catch a ride. We live on a corner and there is no way it would have saved time. I am concerned safety wise, especially for my wife. I feel less sage then I did when I moved back to Bloomington 8 years ago.
The three street lights in front of my home at 930 W 2nd St have been out for over a year. They alternately blink occasionally and by about midnight are out completely for the night in most cases. It is very dark even with the additional lighting provided by the Eye Center across the street. It would be greatly appreciated if these could finally be repaired.
Front porch and back yard have a lot of cans, bottles, boxes, indoor furniture and other debris.
