Hello, I live at 646 Bayberry Ct W and have been drinking tap water for years. My impression is that the taste changed significantly for the worse about a month or so ago. There was one day when it was so bad that I could not swallow it. It improved somewhat after that but still has much more of an after-taste than in the past, in spite of the fact that I bought myself a water filter. What is the cause of this and what can/will you do about it? I really don't want to have to start buying bottled water again.

Hi, Is Hilltop still a part of the Bloomingto Parks and Rec. Department? Visited recently and was really surprised to see how far the program has drifted from its original mission as a youth gardening program. With the money provided by Dr. Shalucha and the funds raised for the new gardening house and greenhouses, I feel that the youth gardening program should be the major focus of the garden and not a free family gardening spot. Any way to bring the original Hilltop back? Mary Hursh

I am seriously concerned that there is no street lamp at W Vernal and N Adams and/or W 8th St. and W Vernal (Waterman). The fact that these two major intersections in western Bloomington have no street lights, when the area is known to have a relatively high-rate of nighttime crime, makes little sense to me. Moreover, as my wife and I are commuter cyclists and often return home at night, these are the only sections of town between the University and our house which aren't lit. So not only is the lack of city street lights/lamps a crime issue, it's also a public safety and transportation issue as well. I look forward to a street light(s) installation in this section of town very soon. Thank you for your consideration, Sam.

The corner of W. 8th Street and W. Vernal Pike is very dark and dangerous at night, especially for pedestrians and bicyclists (of which I am both). I am requesting lights be installed at that location in order to make the area safer for pedestrians, bicyclists, and cars. The Waterman neighborhood has many residents who bicycle and walk through that part of the street, and they are at risk of being hit by cars. It is also a case of making people feel safe at night. Also, I am writing this as a property owner (1521 W. 8th Street) and resident of four years who would like to feel safer and has only just found out about this UReport process, otherwise I would have submitted this request years ago.

Traveling northbound on Lincoln Street approaching 10th street: The right hand stop sign is not visible until the motorist is very close to the stop. Also, as you look towards 10th Street, it is difficult to tell it is a busy thoroughfare. There have been several accidents with drivers, perhaps unfamiliar with the intersection, blowing through the stop and hitting vehicles traveling on 10th Street. I didn't realize I could post a photo - I may try to get one as it would be helpful.

There are an increasing number of potholes between College/Walnut west on 46 to Ellettsville that need to be repaired before winter sets in. I know this is a state highway but to Bloomington/Ellettsville it is almost a country road. Also, there is a 50mpg sign down and damaged just west of where Monroe St intersects 46 that needs replacement/repair. Also, the retaining wall on the east bound exit of 37 to east bound 46 is covered with graffiti. Thank you for doing what you can.

Why are so many traffic lights now running 24 hour cycles instead of the yellow flashing late at night? Particularly troublesome lights are on South Walnut by the Herald Times, Henderson and Hillside, Lincoln and 3rd, Washington and 3rd. This switch was made about three weeks ago and is becoming quite annoying.

Hi, I’m emailing you because I recently came across the “About Bloomington” page on your website (http://bloomington.in.gov/about-bloomington#utilities) and thought it offered up some helpful information. I noticed that you link to several internet and cable TV providers under the “utilities” section, so I wanted to let you know of a helpful resource. Allconnect is a free online service that helps people find utilities, like internet and cable TV, at their exact address. All a user has to do is enter their address and then they can find, compare and order utilities in their area, without having to call each provider individually. We were also recently named one of the top 3 customer service companies in the nation. I think this would be a helpful resource for people who want to find the best deals on home service providers at their exact address, but don’t want to have to call their providers individually to set up service. Here’s the link if you want to add it to the list of utilities: https://www.allconnect.com/ Hope this helps, thanks! Kristen
