I am 62 years old, and this time last year I was just getting back to work after 3 1/2 months rest healing from a broken ankle. When I moved in to 1200 W 12th St, I noticed the sign (photo #1). I even asked Bloomington Housing Authority about it. They said it would be okay to park in front of my apartment. I have been parking in front of my apartment since March 2024. No tickets, no problems. It made it very easy to get to my apartment - load or unload my car - and I could keep an eye on it while in my apartment. Today I get home from work (I work full time at IU as a custodian. Yes - I work FULL TIME and still need Section 8 to get a place to live) to see fresh paint denying me my usual parking spot. I had an ADA tag for a while, but it was temporary. It expired. The problem is: I can’t see my car now unless I get up and look through the one window that lets me see my car. If I have to park farther away, I won’t be able to see it at all, and I will have to walk farther and across the street to access my car. I am old, diabetic, autistic and cannot walk a far as I could before the broken ankle. After work, it is very common for my right ankle to be aching on top of the Diabetic Neuropthy I have in both feet in addition to my jangled nerves from interacting with people and handling emergencies. This neighborhood can get a bit sketchy sometimes - it helped my normally high anxiety level to be able to see my car. My anxiety is already high from people walking so close to my apartment and cutting through my yard - can’t do anything about that so I live with that anxiety. I don’t want to break the law, but this is so unfair! I already pay $828 a month for this tiny apartment - that is ONE WHOLE PAYCHECK. My rent is figured as 30% of my GROSS income. I pay quite a bit for my taxes and Insurance, and I have quite a few medical issues so I have to scramble sometimes to get bills paid and pay for all the drugs I have to take. I live paycheck to paycheck. I have to work so I have health Insurance. Even though I am 62, I can’t get Social Security if I want to live here because it would price me out of Section 8 and I would have to move (AGAIN - I just moved in here a year and a half ago). I can’t work less because i need Insurance from work until I reach 65 and can get Medicare (if it still exists by then). If I have to park further away, then my ankle will be that much more achy when I get home. I’m going to see if maybe I can qualify for a permanent ADA Tag, but even then the 4 HOUR LIMIT would kick me in the butt. That doesn’t even take into account bad weather days or having to walk farther with loads. Where I am currently parked in photo #7 would be a better ADA space. Usually no one parks there, and it is closer to the Boys and Girls Club. Please help me.

There is a round about on Summit Street and Cottage Grove. The roundabout is completely overgrown and is also covering up the drainage system. It's so high that when kids are riding their bikes and cars are coming around the corner, they almost get hit. It needs to be cut.

This is an urgent public safety, transit operations, and traffic flow hazard linked directly to active uReport cases #213337 and #213273. Using the 302 S. Walnut St. terminal platforms as an unmanaged, unsupervised triage, cooling, and heating center without any specialized oversight relying on passengers to keep the peace and make reports is actively disrupting public transit vehicle traffic. Large crowds, sprawling personal property, bed rolls, and temporary camping items are spilling directly off the designated bus bay benches and onto active boarding paths, pedestrian walkways, and loading lanes. This severe congestion introduces major physical obstructions, causing transit buses to delay docking, creating hazardous driver line-of-sight blind spots, and drastically slowing down passenger boarding flow during early morning and peak commute windows.Furthermore, this operational chaos results in constant, daily ambulance and emergency vehicle responses to the platforms. Due to the restricted lane space and structural congestion at this terminal, responding emergency vehicles routinely block active bus departures and transit traffic lanes. This persistent gridlock forces paying passengers to miss critical medical appointments and lose employment opportunities due to unpredictable, blocked transit vehicles.Compounding this vehicle hazard, the hostile platform environment has caused a severe collapse in off-peak passenger retention. Long-term, multi-year riders are abandoning Bloomington Transit because paying commuters trying to access their designated routes are treated as trespassers in an intimidating, territorial space. Surrendering active loading zones and emergency exits to non-transit use is an unsustainable municipal performance failure that violates Title 15 transit zone compliance. Clear the active bus bays, remove the obstructions from the loading platforms, and restore unobstructed lane access for public vehicles.

Transit benches and seating during off peak hours of operation when the building is closed and no staff or security is in sight in between bus arrivals and departures has led to blocked access to sidewalks and benches that correspond with the proper transfer to the city's hospitality and retail districts, but when contacting Transit, the lines were either closed or I was told to just contact 911. Contacting 911 when you're one of very few bus riders and most of the persons are invited to take up entire benches and sidewalks and alleys that are dark without any supervision or preventive action after previous reports and constant, daily calls from various individuals to emergency dispatch leaves me feeling that continuing to call 911 and sexual harassment being viewed as a civil matter is unsustainable for any one individual who's just trying to use the transit center for its intended purpose against multiple unknown daily rotating individuals and unknown issue to All City officials. My rational response is to report it as I fear that I will just keep being viewed as someone who is having a personal issue and reacting poorly to daily grooming and sexual harassment in what has become a legal grey area of daily surveillance of lone, predictable, public transit commuters, and especially women. Your hospitality staff is trained to be welcoming and not always reacts or response appropriately at 6:30 in the morning off the clock to unknown individuals in an unpredictable environment. This is a pressure cooker the city needs to pay close attention to instead of asking your Transit passengers who are dropping in numbers to act as individual issues between individuals. I don't want to have to go speak to a judge and take off work to use your sidewalks.

Furious that the city has decided to share my personal information with a third-party private for-profit company for waterline insurance. Now I’m in another database that will eventually be bought/sold/hacked and I’ll be receiving spam paper mailings for 10 years. I did not authorize or ask for this. YOU need to have an easy way for residents to completely opt out of this garbage. You had no right to do this.

Subject: Request for Residential On-Street ADA Parking Spaces due to Student Housing Overcrowding I am a 9-year resident of Maple Heights neighborhood in Bloomington requesting the designation of on-street ADA accessible parking spaces directly adjacent to my home. My husband is disabled and myself have upcoming spine surgery and possesses a valid state-issued ADA placard.A recent multi-building student development directly across the street has overwhelmed our public street parking. The high volume of student vehicles completely fills the street, creating a severe barrier for my husband and myself, who cannot walk long distances. This has created a safety hazard, as we are trapped in our home and unable to leave for medical needs out of fear that accessible parking will be completely cut off by student overflow. Because we operate two essential vehicles—including one required for my husband's medical transit—we are formally requesting that the Traffic Commission evaluate our property for a designated ADA space allotment to restore safe, accessible entry to our home. Thank you for your urgent assistance with this safety matter.

There is a stand of ornamental grass at this address next to the sidewalk that is impossible for pedestrians to avoid without walking in the street.
