Rollerbladed Clear Creek today, the new portion the County must have opened in the last 1.5 years or so? Was awesome. It is unfortunate how little attention the City pays to skating accessibility. Smooth surfaces are key. Bike and pedestrian commission doesn't even mention skating. Can a skate-specific person be appointed please? Skaters take up less space in the same area compared to bicycles and can easily be thrown in a bag or office. It'd be nice to see more skating commute options. It's not all about boards destroying curbs or whatever people think. I'm certainly no teenager or 20-year-old anymore. Particularly there needs to be an east-west trail in town that goes from far east like the lazer tag place and Summerhouse all the way to campus, and then over to the B-line.

I was traveling to the south side of Bloomington today. Many, many intersections are devoid of street signs. I would think signs would be a constant maintenance priority. I don’t remember the problem in my hundreds of visits to Bloomington and IU. Thanks.

On Saturday, May 29, 2021, this City-owned site was producing a lot of loud construction noises after 10:30pm. The noises included audible beeping from trucks or equipment backing up and loud banging noises, possibly the sound of either dump truck tailgates slamming on the bed of the trucks or some sort of excavator hitting the ground repeatedly. City ordinances only allow construction noises up to 10pm. Can the City be a better neighbor and not produce these loud, annoying noises at such late hours of the day?

If the City can host an event for Juneteenth, which is fantastic, it can host an event for Pride. Trans lives in particular are under attack right now. Let's celebrate the unique queer life Bloomington possesses. Thank you for considering. We can do more. Maybe even just an award for either LGBT activism and/or community contribution from a LGBT resident that can be part of a volunteer awards night or something that I believe Lucy Scaich hosts? Starting small is fine. But Bloomington Pride is not representative of everyone so it would be great for local government to be a player too.

Want to actually promote affordable housing? Utilize the stock we have. Instantly create beds by eliminating artificial 3 person cap on houses that can easily and safely house more. Concerned about issues, solve them. Limit parking permits per house, enforce noise, enforce trash. But we have empty bedrooms that could easily have two people per bedroom in many instances. For no good reason. Go bold. A simple policy change will do more than your construction efforts have the last few years. Let's do this.

Was not informed of military exercise that took place overnight from 07Jun to 08Jun. The noise from the plane/chopper was alarming & was loud enough to rattle windows. It also continued extremely late into the night (~ 2:30 am) which was a significant noise disturbance during quiet hours. City did not provide notice that (1) this was going to occur or (2) the timing of the exercise.

I haven't been to City Hall this month. Is the City flying the Pride flag for June?

I am under the impression that overnight camping is not allowed on public property. Why is the city allowing so many tents all throughout the city being set up overnight? What’s the point of having laws/regulations if we are not going to follow them? What other laws/regulations are we going to turn a blind eye to next?

Stop pursuing opposing goals. You now have a form to more vigorously enforce a stupid policy of artificially limiting occupancy without a clear connection to size, parking, etc. While you also want to increase density? So let's get this right ... You want to build expensive structures (which I don't oppose) when you could create that many beds by simply dropping the archaic anti-modern family rule of capping huge units at three people for no reason? Think this through. We have empty unutilized bedrooms in this town. You're being held hostage by special interests. We need creative and real solutions to affordability. They exist.

Please limit the number of days for fireworks more than currently allowed. Something like 3 seems ample for neighborhoods?
