Just curious if it's normal if homeless take baths in the splash pad for kids. I watched this on 7-5-23. I find it disturbing and disgusting.. Something has to be done with the amount of transients at Switchyard. They have over run Seminary, rails to trails,parking lots,corners and sidewalks.. I don't fill safe taking my family downtown any longer.. Something has to change... Marty S.
B-line from Kroger seminary square to switch yard park full of trash, clothes, shopping carts from homeless! Looks horrendous and very unsafe with people yelling/cursing
Ticket #184913 was closed but I’ve have seen the same person(s)thoughout town and other areas on the b-line and seminary park with personal possessions and trash thrown everywhere around their shopping carts they have stolen. Having them leave one area to go to another doesn’t solve the problem. I already assume this ticket will get closed and say “we patrol the b-line and surrounding areas on a daily basis, and if they are doing something illegal they will be asked to leave….etc”. That doesn’t solve the problem…doesn’t even put a band aide on it. Unless real change is made (legistration) and the city follows laws already in place it will just continue! Please have police monitor these areas for theft, public intoxication, harassment, littering, etc…
Street light is out on the corner of Rosewood and Tulipwood.
Net down at RCA park. If looking at this picture the standard in the right is broken at the top. The wheel that allows the net to be tightened has come off. Nineaybtonhold net up. We have programming for the Bloomkngton Pickleball Club tonight 8/8 would love to have up if possible. Thabks
We live in Southern Indiana. My daughter moved to Carmel last year, so Bloomington is a good middle point to meet. She charges her Tessla at Fresh Thyme off of 3rd Street and we see numerous homeless people coming out of the woods and standing on street corners to the point where she doesn't feel safe charging her car there. On Sunday we went downtown to eat and encountered homeless people yelling on the street corners. The 9 y/o we had with us got an education we hadn't planned on him having! In the 2 hours we were in Bloomington, we encountered 15 homeless people! Hopefully, the city is taking steps to help their homeless population.
The street light is out at the corner of Forrester and David. Thank you for replacing it.
5-6 shopping carts and tons of abandoned clothes/trash etc in the middle of the day on tues (11:30am) at seminary park. If people are truly monitoring area they need to have them return shopping carts and pick up their trash!
B-line by wonder lab. Someone is half naked going through trash with trash all over the ground and surrounding area with their urine in a coffe pot. 11:30 am 8/8/23
I would like to request a much higher fence around the volleyball court if possible, extending farther toward the playground, or maybe just repairing the current fence and installing a VERY high netting (like you would have around a baseball field) above it. The current fence is getting destroyed by having to jump it to retrieve wayward balls, and the creek area is filled with poison ivy. It really needs fixing! It would be so much nicer if there was never any need to have to venture back there at all. Thank you so much! And if there is ever a chance to get another dump of good quality non gravely beach sand like you did a few years back, it is puddling on the West side after it rains. THANKS VERY MUCH!
