It appears that the "wildfowers" which were blocking the vision of drivers exiting Prospect Hill neighborhood on Euclid and Second street are back again this year!!!!! Sorry to complain again about the same problem, but it is a very dangerous effort to turn onto Second street from this corner due to the rise in the road which obstructs vehicles traveling from town toward 37 and with the patch of weeds growing next to the street, the oncoming cars cannot be seen until they are practically at the intersection. Surely the homeowner has not forgotten the complaint from last year, but it would be advisable to remind them of the dangerous situation before there are some serious accidents. Thank you for looking into this problem.

this is an alley, but it is not used for cars -- it's grassed over. but people still walk through it a lot, and several large limbs from a tree are now blocking it.
anyway, this is not an emergency situation at all, but it would be great to get the limbs removed. maybe one of the homeowners should do this, but they have been there for several weeks now.

Sewer Problems (Storm Sewers)

The city has come out and measured several times for a culvert to be installed in front of my driveway. The problem is that the street is higher than my driveway and this house is at the bottom of a hill. When it rains all the debris from the street and houses above me come into my driveway. There is so much water that my basement can flood and the water level can easily reach several feet deep. I have at the moment blocks of stones in front of my driveway so that the debris and water keeps going down Mitchel street instead of blocking the small drainage grates that are in driveway.
Sincerely, Philippe Garnier

Dear City of Bloomington Representative,
Last night’s torrential rain brought a lot of water down our driveway from the street, some of which eventually ended up in our finished basement. We've lived at this address since 2009, and this has been a problem we've lived with since then. We’ve spent almost $15,000 on waterproofing our basement, installing storm drains at the bottom of our driveway, halfway down our driveway, and installing a berm on top of the driveway. Still, water that runs down the Anita Street takes a hard right into our driveway and overwhelms our systems. Anita Street slopes south to north, after it has turned from the east to west slope of East 2nd street. We believe a majority of the water coming down Anita Street actually ends up in our driveway. A lot of the water from the street also collects in the yard of our neighbor, Allyson Youat Schnable. Water that has come into our basement has damaged equipment, furniture, boxes and their contents, and is a threat to our foundation.
I believe we have exhausted our options to comprehensively deal with the amount of storm water that is presented to us. We would love for the city to address the water coming down the street. I would be thrilled to talk to a city official about this problem.
Many thanks,
Maarten Bout

hi, there is condo building located @ 14th and North Dunn St that a couple months ago had a white picket fence erected along the sidewalk/curb. There is also benches and chairs. If the company that owns this has that right I understand. I own a house I rent out in the area as well and it runs along the street in a similar fashion. I might want to add a fence along the sidewalk or street for a little hang out/party area as well in the future if that is allowed.

East side of Dunn just north of Windfall Dancers. Mulberry and/or Bush honeysuckle overgrown and blocking sidewalk. We are not wanting the depressed (thuja/arborvitae) cut back, just the invasive so that pedestrians do not need to walk in the grassy ROW.

A signpost has apparently rotted and is now down next to the path indicating the start of the Bloomington Rail Trail where it splits off from the Clear Creek Trail, just past the pedestrian circle. This is at the south end of the trail, facing north towards That Road. The remaining standing post has a broken reflector.
