Water is hazardous! Apparently a young boy drown in one of the ponds in Wylie Farm subdivision, i was told it was this one. I fell in this one myself, there is an extremely slippery plastic sheet that covers the entire bottom of the pond, up to the edge of the water. If the water is high you don't see it, if its low it's exposed on the edges. When it was low i went to the edge to take a picture of the water. I fell in by slipping the instant my foot hit the plastic sheet, all the way up to my shoulders and i fell down 3 more times trying to stand up. I ended up having to get on my hands and knees to crawl out in order to get enough friction on the plastic to move and pull myself up by grabbing handfuls of the grass growing on the shore! A small kid would almost certainly drown there. A very insufficient "fence" made of 3 almost invisible plastic wires had been put around one of the ponds. A much, much better fence needs to be put around all of them, or eventually another kid will drown.

To whom it may concern,
I am not sure who I should address my question to, so please forward this question to the correct person. I am getting married on May 3, 2014. At the end of our ceremony, we would like to go outside and release paper lanterns to float off into the sky. It dawned on me that I should ensure this idea is permissible within city limits. Please let me know ASAP. Thank you.

I suspect the rental house at 706 N Washington St is over occupied. There appear to be around 8 students in the house.

Someone put an advertisement in my mailbox without actually mailing it, it has a hole to be placed on a door nob. My understanding is that it's a crime to do that. The company on the ad is "top notch mowing and landscapes" phone number 812-360-8543. I called and left a message with them complaining as well.

Another deep rutt has opened up in the alley near my parking area behind my house. This one is almost deep enough to bottom out the car if it is hit at the right angle. I live at 1115 E. 1st St.

I'm sorry the location got messed up on my submission about the rutt in the alley. It is between 1st and University off of Hawthorne, behind 1115 E. 1st St. Once again, a deep rutt in front of my parking space behind my house. Thanks.

I wanted to pay my compliments to Mike Stinson, a supervisor in Street Utilities. I had asked Mike about a concern I had with a location in the city, and Mike took the time out of his day to personally come out and thoroughly inspect the site, both in his vehicle and on foot. Beyond this, he called me back and patiently and thoroughly explained the processes and specific codes involving my concern, and then went on to tell me how he could help. It was finished in less than 24 hours. Mike went far above and beyond the requirements of his job to help me out as a concerned citizen, and I want to make sure he is properly thanked and recognized for his work with the City. He makes me proud to be a Bloomington Resident. Again, please let him know what an excellent job he has done in not only helping me individually, but helping us all stay safer. Thanks again for your great work, Mike!
