Trying to find way to reply to our previous report. The only way possible is to create a new one ... This is about UReports concerning RE: #202909 Thank you for the people who looked into this for us - Rob Council replied "Exterior inspection has been conducted on property. Does not meet unsafe threshold" How can this be if there is no longer yard fencing on South side of pool? Pool water is green, cover is off, complete access into yard to pool by alley (There used to be a garage that fell down and was removed before sale) Isn't there a City safety ordinance about pools? Ex. "In Bloomington, Indiana, an ordinance requires fences around swimming pools and other water-filled excavations. Specifically, Ordinance 17-19 amended Section 14.36.160 to align pool fencing requirements with the Indiana Administrative Code. This means that swimming pools and other water-filled excavations must have a fence at least 4 feet high that completely surrounds the pool area. Elaboration: Ordinance 17-19: This ordinance amended Section 14.36.160, which previously required fences around all bodies of water with a depth exceeding 36 inches. Now, the ordinance primarily focuses on swimming pools and their fencing requirements, aligning with the Indiana Administrative Code. Fencing Requirements: The Indiana Residential Code (R326.27.3) outlines specific requirements for pool fencing: Walls or fences at least 4 feet high, completely surrounding the pool and deck. Self-closing and latching gates and doors, capable of being locked. Alternative means, deemed impenetrable by the enforcing authority, can be used instead of traditional fences. A combination of the above options is also allowed. A power safety pool cover can be used as an alternative, provided it connects continuously to the deck and requires a key or other secure mechanism to operate. Violation: Violating the ordinance is considered a misdemeanor, according to Section 14.36.170."

The light at Fee and 10th seems to be stuck (12:10 pm Sat May 31). It is green for 10th St and red for Fee so cars on Fee are stuck with no where to go . . ..

there is a sidewalk that runs from the park to South wexley road. there are actually two sidewalks and the one I'm talking about is 100 yards south of the intersection of East Rock Creek drive and South wexley road. this sidewalk runs from South wexley road to the park and softball fields that are south of the South side YMCA. this sidewalk has four spots where the concrete sections have subsided creating a two to three inch trip hazard. there are four places in the sidewalk where this happens. two of them are marked with faded red paint but the two other ones aren't marked at all. a person walking or jogging can easily not spot them. I myself have tripped twice once I stubbed the heck out of my toe. I've seen similar situations where the protruding concrete section has been ground down to eliminate the two to three inches that are sticking up. I wanted to report it because I think it's a pretty unsafe situation because you do see joggers including some old people using it and it could easily trip them they could break a hip or something if you need more information my number is 812-391-0134

Street lights are out at night at 2422 E. Maxwell Lane. This is an issue because it is dark at the end of the lane and this is a dead end street.

Hello, I'd like to recommend that the city host watch parties for the Pacers NBA Finals games, possibly at parks like Switchyard. Thanks!

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? Jeanne Dutton 621 N Plymouth Road 812-606-9233

At least a month ago, either the owners of, or the renters of 916 N. Monroe St. Bloomington, In. 47404 placed a dilapidated sofa near the curb of the Monroe St side of the house that sits at the SE intersection of Monroe St. and Orris. It has since become a magnet to the trash of inconsiderate passersby and has become an eyesore and possible health hazard. Please advise on what can be done about this. Thank You, Dale F. Jones

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!
