If you want to reach people through facebook and others great but the information should be available to all with out jumping through those hoops.
I have been picking up broken asphalt pavement for over a year now and have periodically requested a city crew to pick up for recycling for reuse when a significant amount has been collected. I now have enough to justify a pickup. I do this to prevent these materials from blocking the street storm drains and sewers reducing the risk of street flooding.
U-report 198754. I was asked to send our address regarding this U-report of broken pavement that I am picking up so that it does not block the Sussex and Queensway storm drains, Our address is 2305 Sussex Drive. The Sussex and Queensway broken pavement pile is on the east side of the driveway near the street. Don Eggert
Very large pothole/ungraded street surface on Rogers Street - just north of 2nd Street intersection, in the northbound lane.
New striping for bike lane on N Smith dangerous. It eliminates the lane shortly before Morningside then starts back up after. Go ahead and make consistent.
Street lights are out on E Third St and S Washington St, E Smith Ave and S Washington, and E Second St and S Washington St. Every street lamp on S Washington has been out since at least the beginning of September. The entire street is pitch black at night and it creates a very unsafe environment for when I and other residents on or around S Washington walk home.
There's tree on the easement property growing at a 45 degree angle on the NE corner of my property. Part of that tree is hanging over power lines and my fence. I'm concerned it'll fall on my fence.
Hello! On the northeast corner of 9th and Indiana Ave. there is a two foot (or more?) deep hole right next to the sidewalk. It appeared a month ago during some construction. The hole is deep enough that it could cause serious injury should someone accidentally step in it. This coming weekend is IU Homecoming and Indiana Ave. sidewalk will be heavily trafficked. If access to the pipes in the hole is still needed, a simple cone or caution tape could go along way to prevent injury. Thank you so much for your great work caring for out City!
this is another report about trash at 612 W. Clover Terrace (prev. report #198717) This house needs a larger trash bin! That would solve the problem. This is their trash every week and the picture is today - after our trash pickup. Same thing last week. Trash all over the ground and they don't pick up. Landlord needs to get bigger cart!
I'm writing to express my gratitude for the efforts Bloomington Parks and Rec is making to support reduce pollution, save money, and support native species and ecosystem services in our city parks. I've been particularly delighted to see former areas of lawn in Winslow Park and Crestmont Park converted to no mow zones and planted with native trees! After just a short period of time, these areas are already supporting wildlife and adding natural beauty (asters were blooming today!) in a ways that mowed lawns never could. Thank you for supporting these no mow zones - I'd love to see more of them!
