Just today, I noticed a 4, maybe 5 year old ridding his/her bike down 10th St., and the parents walking along seemed 'forced' to help child off bike, then "lift" bike onto sidewalk. As I use a walker, and to gain access to the BT 'stop'. I feel it best someone contact the BHA (Barrington Homeowners Association and enforce city laws of/for which they claimed to be "exempt" from, although I very much disagree. I consider this/them to be a well justified part of the City of Bloomington. IF asked/requested, I will take a picture of possible curb-cut or ramp sites.
Snow plow street damage at street drain
Recycling not picked up last week. Please reference previous open ticket 174965
The playground at Park Ridge Park needs additional fill/fiber/woodchips/whatever it is called. There are areas of consistently exposed dirt, there are deep pits under the swings, and the distance between the bottoms of some of the slides and the playground surface has grown large. Additionally, there are areas of exposed dirt in the grassy areas around the playground in areas or erosion. It has been worse in the past, but still seems like it needs addressed to try to prevent additional erosion.
The gravel/cinder trail between the parking lot and the large shelter is now a flowing stream. There's a waterfall on the hill/cliff that normally turns and flows parallel to and then under the trail, but has overflowed its banks at the spot where it turns. It's eroded part of the trail all the way to the parking lot (stopped by the paved pedestrian "lobby", where it is pooling). Not a disaster, but it does push pedestrians onto the grass. Wanted to make sure you were aware. Thanks for all you do to keep our parks in such great shape overall!
Dead skunk needs removed. Roadkill.
My neighbor has a trash can fulk of trash.im tired of looking at it. Also would like to keep rodents away.
After the snow storm two weeks ago, the street in front of my house was cleared, but not the dead end part of Brookside Drive that is beside my house. I e-mailed Joe Van Deventer, Director of Street Operations, to ask if that was an error or a new policy. I received no reply. I need to know the answer, so that I can attempt to reverse the policy if the policy for clearing snow from dead end streets has changed. As you can see in the satellite photo, I was forced to hand shovel 40 yards of Brookside Dr. to "get out" even 2-3 days after the snow storm.
Several years ago speed bumps were installed on Allen Street between Lincoln Street and Bryan Park. The materials were described as being temporary but whatever was supposed to replace them as permanent never materialized. Several of them are now missing sections, and there are some where nails are bent and pushing up.
