I found a syringe just a foot or two off the B-Line Trail in a clump of spearmint growing behind the orange building at 7th and Madison. Ironically, the syringe was orange too. I left it there, because I am not trained in handling syringes, but it should probably get picked up and disposed of properly.
Thanks,
Yael

Green spray painted graffiti marked on my wall between 518 and 512 W Howe St. This appeared 4 to 6 weeks ago.

Blocked Sidewalk

Hello,
I am writing to make a complaint about the scooters that have appeared over the last few weeks from both Bird and Lime. This past Saturday, multiple scooters from both companies were simply abandoned in Bryan Park, some of which were blocking the sidewalks and paths through the park, some of which were leaning against trees and benches, all of which were eyesores in an otherwise lovely park. At one point in the afternoon, six or so Lime scooters were dropped off on the sidewalk by the Henderson St. lower parking lot by folks from Enterprise Rental, on the sidewalk, where people walk, run, etc.
In Bloomington, we are fortunate to have bike racks everywhere. Would it be possible to require that users and companies place the scooters at bike rack locations? By simply allowing them to be left wherever, users are leaving them around without regard to others.
This is also a bit of an issue with the Pace bikes. A few weeks ago, one was left leaning on the stop sign at Henderson and Davis, when there is a bike rack just a block away in the park.
Thank you for taking steps to regulate these companies in a manner that benefits everyone.

I found a street sign, together with the large metal pole, in my front yard today. Not sure how it got there ... but it appears to be a Bloomington street sign. Can you come collect it?

Trash in yard and on the ground outside of dumpster will NOT be removed by trash company. Bags have already been ripped open. Rats sighted. Landlord and tenants continue to ignore problems caused by trash on the grounds.

Water runoff is still an issue. I have reported this before and it is causing damage to my yard and basement. This area really needs a sidewalk or curb with storm drains.

accessibility issue
At Lotus, I was using my wheelchair. I was THROWN from my chair TWICE while trying to negotiate supposedly accessible curbs, and had to stand multiple times to get over cracks in sidewalks. Luckily, I am not completely wheelchair bound, YET... but I think this needs immediate attention!
This curb is on 6th street in front of the genealogy center.
