The issue is with this website/reporting system itself, not the courthouse. There needs to be a nonverbal method of reporting certain things - not the least of which being noise complaints. I lost my voice to cancer years ago, but I did not lose my hearing. I have a particularly loud set of neighbors, and I have been unable to do anything about them because I cannot call to make a complaint. I have seen other noise complaints on this website, and while their circumstances may not be the same as mine, it's clear there is a need for a nonverbal reporting method for noise complaints (as well as other similar non-emergent type issues). Thanks in advance, Mary

It is so difficult to get into the doorway at the lower level entrance to Fountain Square on S Walnut St (the closest entrance to Brightside Cafe) in a wheelchair. The metal transition strip looks bent and doesn't span the full height of the step, so it's not fully wheelchair accessible. Very hard to enter without a push-to-open button in a wheelchair. Still very difficult even if someone holds the door for me, because of the height of the transition. Let me know if you'd like me to show Michael Shermis in-person. Thank you.

Cafe Thistle has a flag that is blocking the sidewalk. It would be disorienting for a blind person to run into.

Original ticket number #177138 closed but never addressed so I created a follow up ticket (#177261) which was closed, marked Resolved. So, how can aticket be marked Resolved when the original ticket was never addressed? How about just ticketing and towing the cars that are parking in the no parking area and blocking the handicap ramp and many times going in the working direction? It is a hazard to enter Driscoll from Walnut.

I am writing to report a systemic reliability issue with Bloomington Transit. The bus on Route 2 (West 11th St) is consistently running late. Because of these daily delays, I am unable to make my connecting transfer at the Downtown Transit Center.Missing this transfer causes a severe domino effect. It makes me significantly late for work, creates ongoing conflicts with my employer, and directly jeopardizes my current and future employment. When I called Bloomington Transit to report this, the representative inappropriately suggested I "take an earlier bus" or "take an Uber." Route 2 already runs on a limited schedule, and relying on expensive rideshare services is financially unsustainable. It completely defeats the purpose of public infrastructure. I am requesting that the Operations Manager or Route Scheduler investigate the Route 2 timeline. The schedule needs to be adjusted so that riders can reliably make their connections at the Transit Center without being stranded.Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Whether it is a lack of security, conflicting facility uses, gaps in weekend/night service, or inefficient route layouts, the city's response is always to shift the burden, safety risks, and financial costs onto the citizen. I need Bloomington Transit and city oversight to address these operational bottlenecks and provide a reliable, safe, and direct service that actually supports working-class residents.
