There was a deer hit and it died and is laying in the yard at 1191 E Carnaby. Does the City remove deceased animals? If not, do you know who I can contact? Thank you!
This is a general observation. Over the last few years I have been seeing metal sheets screwed to Bloomington roads, presumably to cover work in progress. I have observed a problem with many of these sheets. They are screwed down with small gauge screws. They are not sufficient to keep the sheets secure. They work their way out and stick up an inch in some places. Their heads are small. They look sharp enough to damage a tire, and a damaged tire is a safety issue.
There's 2 sizable potholes on the north side of S Fenbrook Ln in The Fields https://www.google.com/maps/place/39%C2%B009'11.4%22N+86%C2%B029'09.4%22W/@39.1531729,-86.4875026,17z
Pothole on Ballantine and 1st street in the intersection. Potholes all along Pickwick off of E. Covenanter Drive heading south up to 1400 S. Pickwick Place. I felt like I was driving through a war zone yesterday trying to not hit a pothole on Pickwick Place. It is along the whole street.
Homeowner at 1251 W Countryside Ln contacted CBU Eng Dept on 5/9/19 @ 1:35pm regarding a drainage concern. Drainage ditch running between his home and the neighboring home to the West is holding water. He is concerned for public safety with mosquitos and such since the water is holding for long periods of time. He would like an Engineer to contact him and meet him on site to see what can be done to correct the problem. Tonia advised the homeowner that the Engineer was not back in the office until 5/13/19. He stated that he understood and that he did not have any immediate concerns about waiting until next week.
Neighbor isn't using his city appointed trash bins, leaves them on his back porch. Animals get into them/wind blows his trash into my yard. Been this way about a year. I have more video/photos to prove it.
I live on the corner of S Clifton and Hillside Drive, each day I feel I take my life in my own hands as I walk east on Hillside Drive. There is no shoulder between the sidewalk and the street. Cars are speeding by well over the speed limit, liter a few feet from me and potential disaster. I would ask that you look at 1. Lowering the speed limit 2. Mandate a soft shoulder between the sidewalk and street. 3. Place a speed indicator. Anything you can do I feel could reduce the potential for the next accident.
The Street Department came the first of the week and put down a beautiful new layer of street in my cul-de-sac (Summerwood Ct) but when it rained the water pooled on the side of the street as high as the curb. It was at least 5 inches deep at the curb and extended halfway across the street. Apparently there formerly was a storm sewer at that particular location, but it is no longer functioning which results in water, snow, ice accumulation at that point and the streegt will quickly deteriorate. Please help!
