The sidewalk in front of the Bloomington Thrift Store is still covered with ice, 23 days after the snow stopped falling. They cleared their parking lot well but did nothing to the sidewalk. And there’s a deep puddle just a bit east of there, on the north side of the overpass in front of the old motorcycle store, now closed. The puddle is at least four inches deep. I hope the city learns from this recent heavy snow to do a better job at clearing paths for all, but I am not confident.

7th St has alternate street side parking. With the recent snowfall, cars on the parked side were boxed in, and snow on the no parking side was pushed onto previously cleared sidewalk, according to my renter. That mean it is full of ice clumps, making it impossible for she or me to remove. Can the city actually remove some of the snow for us - we know the first effort was to clear streets, but it impossible lift for a senior to clear twice the height of packed road snow on the sidewalk.
