Bamboo overgrowth 1115 W 6th Street's SouthEast corner fence line is spilling over to easements of the three adjacent neighbors yards and easements. In addition to the rampant spread of this address's bamboo cluster, there is very serious concern that the utility pipes, water and gas lines, that run along the easements will be damaged or impinged upon. There is a city policy that overgrowth in yard cannot exceed a height of 8". Some of this bamboo overgrowth is over 15 feet! I love plants and I don't want to have bad relations with my neighbors, but bamboo is a terrifyingly overly successful plant species that belongs in a container. After hearing a story about bamboo on WFIU, I was heartened to learn that there might be some support from the city to help with this very insistent bamboo problem.

Several weeks ago the new fiber cables were buried along E Hillside Dr. I was working from home when one of the workers knocked on the door and asked if I had water. I did, and so did the neighbors. The worker said he ran into water, but if we all had service, then he wasn’t going to worry about it. I didn’t think anything of it. Now, we have noticed there is water coming up out of a spot along the sidewalk. I realize the picture is not really telling you much, but it’s like a small mud pit and water is coming up out the ground there. This is within the 10’ strip that the City of Bloomington owns along this section of Hillside.

On behalf of Crescent Bend Neighborhood Association---CBU drainage ditch requires maintenance--DEAD TREE REMOVAL, INVASIVE PLANT REMOVAL and TRASH REMOVAL. The tree snags pictured are located parallel on the east of side 1305 W 17th St. near the neighborhood Little Free Library. The ditch curves east on W 17th to the roundabout, where there is a trash problem. The ditch heads south all the to W. 16th & Hancock where if flows down from Crestmont Park. The entire area is full of Asian Bush Honeysuckle, an invasive species. I have more pictures, but I can only submit 1 photo on the U-Report. The big picture is that CBU owns a large portion of our huge block and it all needs some landowner attention and maintenance near W 17th St, Lindbergh St, corner of 16th & Hancock, and the roundabout.
