It's bad enough that we have to fight for parking at Morton Street garage, but it becomes intolerable when black ford F150's take up 2 spaces (314, 313). Is there some ordinance against this? Can they be ticketed, at least? License plate G04292.
A large percentage of parking meters around the Main Branch of Monroe County Public Library are not working. They either will not accept a debit or credit card (i.e. cannot read the cards) or have a black screen so that a user is unable to read in the steps needed in order to pay for parking. The meters in question are on Lincoln between Kirkwood and 6th, 6th between Lincoln and Grant, and Grant between 6th and Kirkwood. I have not tried parking on Kirkwood so I don't know if there's any issue with those meters. Every time I attempt to park in this area, I must try at least three times before I am able to find a working meter.
This morning, a bus was dropping off children at the Buskirk-Chumley for a student matinee. The bus swung out too hard and ended up hitting and denting the parking meter on Kirkwood closest to the corner of Kirkwood and Washington on the block that has the Buskirk-Chumley Theater.
Predatory Towing in Bloomington. I have noticed an increase in the amount of tow trucks in and around the downtown area. In particular, Speedy Wrecker Service, has continually towed multiple vehicles in parking meters and then demanded payment be made in cash only. If the city wants people to be invited to spend time downtown they need to create a city ordinances that addresses the cost of towing $100 flat fee and also uses the 24 hour waiting period. What kind of community does Bloomington want to be?
Hello, I currently have a parking permit through my job at the Garage on 7th Street and Walnut. I've noticed that the garage hasn't been charging users for about 2 months now. I am wondering when you are going to install the gates at the exit and start charing people again? It is a bit frustrating to pay for a permit and have to park on the roof when you know many are parking for free there. From a financial perspective I may not renew my permit if I can just park there for free. I saw an article in the HT this morning about changes to parking enforcement but the garage on 7th and Walnut was not mentioned in it. When will you start charging to park at the garage on 7th Street and walnut again? Will there be change in parking regulations at the garage? Thank you for your time and information. -Amber Mestre
Your system is flawed. I’m entirely convinced no one reads the parking ticket appeals because you just want to abuse the college students and you love to abuse your power
This landlord must have put up a sign for at least 5 private parking spots. I thought private parking would have a price. Brenda Lane
I want to apply for a Neighborhood Parking Permit, and found a page of FAQ, but did not see a link to the actual parking permit application.
This vehicle has parked here for a while without a permit and has been reported though BHA does nothing. The license plate is expired, located at 1315 W 12th St. Please tow to open parking in front of my house. Thanks so much for your help.
