Thank you to the city council for unanimously disapproving Ordinance 2024-18 – To Amend Title 8 of the Bloomington Municipal Code, Entitled “Historic Preservation and Protection” to Establish a Historic District – Re: Green Acres Conservation District (Green Acres Historic Designation Committee, Petitioner)
Concern Regarding Unusual Activity and Property Conditions Next to My Business Dear City Official, Good Morning, I am reaching out to express my concern about some recent developments at the property located next to my business at 811 N Walnut St. Since new residents moved in, there has been a noticeable increase in unusual activity that is negatively impacting the appearance and environment around my business. Specifically, the residents have been leaving trash overflowing into the alley, some of which is spilling over onto my property. This not only creates a messy and unsanitary environment but also makes a poor impression on my clients as they arrive at my business. Additionally, there are two cars at the property: one that does not appear to be running and another that is frequently being worked on. There are also cars frequently pulling up in the alley, where individuals from the house briefly interact with the vehicles before returning inside. The overall condition of the property and the ongoing activity is concerning, and I would appreciate your assistance in addressing this issue. As a business owner, it is important to me that the surrounding environment reflects positively on the area, and I believe this situation is detracting from that. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please let me know if any additional information is needed.
There are homeless encampments in the shut down parking lot of Arby's. The encampments have been growing daily and causing concerns for nearby businesses.
Bus driving crazy around campus with expired plates.
HVAC equipment on the north side of showers is deafeningly screechy. it seem like this problem got fixed recently, but has started again.
Why was feedback on the mural at 11th & rogers only asked for with simply one design submitted? And to that point, why was feedback submitted not taken? Public sees absolutely no changes to the proposed design and leaves us feeling the same way when the gateway was decided unilaterally at miller park. At least in that instance council stepped in to halt the design. Is the artwork at hopewell going to be treated the same way? Public feedback submitted but has no impact on actual result for our neighborhoods and city? Disappointing.

AT&T has two dead trees in front of its building. They have been dead so long one has splintered from rot and is now on the ground in numerous shards right next to the sidewalk.
Pavilion Properties building elevator permit expired on 10/15/2024. It has not been renewed as per Indiana DHS website (which is publicly accessible and can be accessed if you know the building's address) as of 11:21am on 12/23/2024. I checked it because the doors made loud clunking noises when traversing down, and I had to hit the button multiple times (or hit it extremely hard) in order for it to go up. It should be the apartment complex owner's responsibility to ensure permits are up to date - members of the public shouldn't have to remind them to do this. [I am not a tenant of this building (hence why this is not under the "rental complaint" section), but my friend is, and I noticed that the permit posted in the elevator showed it was expired when I visited him recently. I checked the website to verify.]
We are the landlord of this commercial building and have a shared alley way. There are two white trash bags leaning against our building (left by students across the alley most likely) - trash is strung out of it due to animals and there is some broken glass as well. Can you please take care of cleaning this up??
