The sidewalk running the entire length of meadow park apartments on smith road is unshoveled. There is no sidewalk on the southbound side of the road making this entire stretch impassable to pedestrians
Smith rd under the train tracks teaming unshoveled. Pedestrians are forced To walk in the street to access the bus stop
Azalea sidewalk along Winslow Woods never got cleared and Parks and Rec refuses to do so causing South students and residents to walk on the narrow road.
I would like to express some disappointment in the overall process for the Kirkwood closures. I made the mistake of watching 2/4's city council meeting and was surprised at the level of outrage that some individuals had due to the city recognizing that what exists currently is insufficient and a drain of city resources. I can certainly appreciate why businesses on/right around Kirkwood would want to give their business an essentially free boost of revenue but missing from this equation is how it impacts non-Kirkwood businesses. It seems all is framed to help these bars and restaurants out but it seems if you go down there when the Kirkwood is open that they're already doing just fine. Further, the city did mention that there is approximately $80k in lost revenue, plus the staff drain...if we do end up closing it, maybe we should consider permit fees high enough to recoup these costs instead of giving them this PUBLIC space for the current nominal amount. Mostly I just want to state that while I look forward to a thoughtful Kirkwood redesign in the future that does expand options for businesses, residents, and visitors alike, Bloomington is much, much, much more than Kirkwood! I would love to see us start celebrating and investing into those areas with the same energy that we put into Kirkwood- even if they don't have the KCA behind them!!
Along 46 in front of the State Bloomington and Varsity apartments, the sidewalks to get to the stadium are still not plowed. I have to park at the stadium since my apartment is out of parking, but it’s super difficult to walk in the snow :(
Thick layer of ice covering entire sidewalk and alley right next to Spudshack. Very hazardous for a serious fall risk as this is a commonly used sidewalk and right next to concrete steps. Appears to be no salt or sand being used. Unsure why ice is so bad in this area from the alley.
Ice on the sidewalk
Trash can has been on the curb for 2-1/2 weeks.
Sidewalk an icy mess
This walk hasn’t been touched causing people to have to walk in the street.
