At 10:04pm on Monday, June 2, 2025, I observed an older white SUV go from the west bound lane of Country Club into the east bound lane of traffic head on, then back up into the gravel/grassy area on the south side of Country Club and east of the Rail Trail parking lot. There is a gravel road that runs parallel to the Rail Trail there. I also saw headlights from a second vehicle facing north on the gravel road further down to the south, which would have been beyond where the gate is located that should keep vehicles out of that area. These appear to be homeless people. They need to be removed and that area needs to be secured so that no homeless people can drive vehicles back into the woods and live along the road. That part of City Property has already been subject to eviction and cleared out. The homeless need to be removed immediately from anywhere and everywhere along the entire stretch of the Rail Trail from Country Club to Gordon Pike, as well as anywhere along the gravel road running parallel to it. This area needs to be continuously monitored so they do not return.

A storm drain is located on Plymouth Road by the northeast point of my property. (It is directly across from the fire hydrant at Beacon and Plymouth.)
The water from the drain runs underground on the north side of my house, then empties at the back by the railroad. The water then runs south over the open ground. During heavy rains, a creek forms and the stormwater overflows the small natural runoff channel, flooding into my yard.
On Memorial Day weekend, I noticed that a small "sinkhole", maybe three feet wide, had formed near the back of my driveway. Also, when the last contractor installed cables, they dug a trench through our backyards and that trench is getting deeper, too.
Where the storm drain empties at the back of the lot, there is a very large hole due to erosion.
I am concerned that there is a problem with the infrastructure which is affecting my property. Could someone please help me determine the cause and solution to the problems?

There's a stray cat colony in this area that isn't spay/neutered that's being fed by people. Bloomington animal shelter was informed, but we're just trying to be thorough, because we saw 2 pregnant female cats, various kittens, and an activity nursing mother cat. Its very upsetting knowing there are actively kittens/cats in danger because of predators being attracted to the food & them being right next to that highway. We actively saw a cat chasing out a full grown fox from the area while sitting there. None of them have tipped ears indicating TNR and most are timid of people, but seem to be reliant on food from people and will come out a little (some are completely friendly it seems).

Vehicles speed down Sare rd (50 mph+) to Canada drive. There needs to be another stop sign before Meadow Creek apartments or a speed bump. There are autistic children in the area, pets, children riding bikes, elderly people, students, and wildlife at risk. These same people are throwing beer cans out the window and many of them are texting and driving. It’s a matter of time before there will be an accident. Thanks

The city installed two very tall, bright LED lamplights as part of a project at the intersection of Winding Brook and Rogers Road, and The Stands and Rogers Road. These two large lights greatly increased the illumination directly into my primary bedroom windows on the south and east sides of my home and have created an ongoing nuisance that is visible from my condo 365 nights per year. This is unacceptable. Please assess these lights and correct this issue with more directional lighting (away from my residence, and, if possible, please use something other than LED. Thank you!

There is a nuisance light in a box attached to pole 814 6521 on Morton Street in the narrow greenway between the B-line and Morton, opposite the driveway to the all red house next to the Bloomington Center for Connection.
It creates glare all over the neighborhood and directly into my house. It is not part of the street light system. I have photos on my phone but don't know how to attach them to this file. I believe it should come down. Thank you.
