I am requesting the City’s review of a $200 “PPI IMPOUND INDIANA LIEN
(notifications Fee)” charged by Tow Time Solutions LLC.
Tow Time towed my 2022 Tesla Model 3 from the FlexePark lot at 299 E. 3th
Street (Tow Time interestingly reports the Towed From address as 219 E. 4th Street) on October 4, 2026. I picked up the vehicle on October 6 and paid the $485 total shown on the attached receipt (Invoice #3146). The receipt
lists $150 for towing, $50 for special equipment, $60 for storage, $25 for
administration, and $200 for the lien-notification fee.
I understand that my monthly parking agreement prohibited parking in that
lot from 4:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Sundays, and I am not asking the City to
review whether the tow itself was justified. My concern is whether the
separate $200 fee is authorized for a non-consensual tow under Bloomington
Municipal Code 4.32.130, which lists permitted towing and storage charges.
Please also determine whether IC 9-22-6-2 or any other state law authorizes this separate $200 lien-notification fee in addition to the charges listed under BMC 4.32.130, and what records support the amount charged.
I spoke with Tow Time in person, and we agreed that I would submit the
fee question to the City through uReport. Please review whether this
specific fee is permitted, advise me of the appropriate process to dispute
it, and let me know whether the City can assist with resolving it.

Smoking Violation
Bloomington Transit Center
- Case Date:
- 8/29/2026
I am requesting more enforcement of the no-smoking rules at the Bloomington Transit Center? Every time I am at the transit center, at least one person is smoking at the bus terminal waiting area outside, next to the no smoking signs. I would be able to use the fixed route buses more, instead of BT Access, if there wasn't smoking at the Transit Center terminal.

U Report # 210060
Hi again,
I'm following up from yesterday's U Report. Duke responded immediately with the information that the wire is a cable line. Duke recommended that I get back to my local Bloomington government because since I've owned this house I have never had cable service, therefore I do not know whose line it belongs to. Do you have any record as to who owns/is responsible for this abandoned cable line? And is there a statute of limitations for an abandoned line - can I cut it down myself? What is the risk of danger if I do so?
Any insight that you can provide is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Elida C. Behar

After battling with code my apartment building it 25 ft away with the smoking but they only moved it 25 ft away but it's still entering the 50 some windows in the back where they placed it and going in the ventilation system and I've tried contacting the Bloomington Housing Authority about it. I don't know what to do any recommendations I was told that the PHA can help enforce stricter things or even make a designated smoking area that's further than 25 ft away when I reached out to Bloomington Housing Authority I'm not too sure if I spoke with PHA they weren't very helpful I thought about contacting the health department because they can come out and see which way the wind blows and where it's drifting inside but when I looked it up I really didn't see anything to tell them about smoke issues. This place needs an inpection for so much
