Unit four tenant continues to feed deer and rodents by deliberately putting corn and bird seed on the floor of their porch.
Several coyotes that have started to make a home in the wooded area and field behind where I live. They have been starting to coming into the neighborhood Arbor Ridge at all different times. My neighbor had an encounter with one while walking her dog. It wasn’t scared of her and became very territorial. Usually coyotes in this area move on but never have seen them so consistently in the area I live especially leaving the field and coming into our neighborhood. There a lot of elderly folks with dogs and this could become dangerous if no one intervenes.
Coyotes seen several times in our neighborhood recently. The picture included is in the field behind our neighborhood but we have also seen them in my back yard. They approached me and my dog about a week and a half ago. We are usually seeing them at dusk and dawn.

Question. Is it permissible to harass deer in my fenced in yard with non-lethal means such as a paintballs, airsoft pellets, or slingshot?
On June 4th I saw a fawn with a doe (not uncommon), but the doe had a severe gash on her underside. Flesh was hanging down and I could see her insides. The both walked away. Over the next several days, I saw an lone fawn, but no doe would ever emerge to be with it. Now, for the past 3 days, this fawn has been laying against the house at 2205 East Laurelwood Drive, about 15 feet off the side walk (not very protected). I've lived in the area for 19 years and have seen hundreds of does with fawns, often separated, but this definitely seems different.
We on the Historic Preservation Commission want very much for homeowners, potential new homeowners, and their real estate agents to be able to have easy access to information about whether their property is listed on the scattered sites survey, or within an historic district. Prior knowledge will help them become educated about the responsibilities and benefits of owning an historic home. There are two places links to the information should show up, (at minimum.) one is under the "historic" tab once a "my Bloomington" search has been done on the property. Or under the "historic district" entry which properties within historic districts currently show. (Add scattered sites here, please.) Another is under the "realtor information " page on the HPC website. (Here: https://bloomington.in.gov/documents/viewDocument.php?document_id=8553) there is a line stating "survey results by address" but it is not linked to the page ( https://bloomington.in.gov/historical-survey/survey-results-by-address ) and it is hidden halfway down the page. I would argue this link / information should be the first thing on the real estate info page, and prominently listed. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
My name is Claudia Chavira and I am reaching out on behalf of Lotus Arts & Education Foundation in Bloomington, Indiana. My question is regarding the city calendar. The foundation has several upcoming events we would love to post to the calendar for the consideration of Bloomington citizens. Let me know if this is something that is possible. Thank you for your time. Claudia
I'm very impressed with your website. The volume of information available is remarkable. However, I've been waiting two months for the minutes of the Appeals Board meeting in December concerning the Horvath communication facility on Wiemer Road. Can I expect it anytime soon? Thank you for your time and hopefully your response.
please send me the link to the annexation map. I searched for keyword and I looked through the various articles but there is no reference on the website for finding the map. There should be a link on the only page provided from a search
