Excessive Growth

- Case Date:
- 9/15/2013
There is a vacant lot next to my home at 1015 E. Keri Marie Lane, that has a great deal of overgrowth all along my property line. The attached photo is one example where the growth overextends my fence and is creeping into my own vegetation. Please eradicate this overgrowth. You can reach me, Geoff Cochran at (812) 369-0052 if you have questions.

Excessive Growth

The bicycle and pedestrian path between Nota Drive and Maxwell Lane is very overgrown with bushes from adjoining properties. The branches are growing several inches into the path. It's narrow for one person and very narrow for two, especially when one person is with their bike. I'll send pictures the next time I'm passing through.

Traffic Signals
1945 North College Avenue
- Case Date:
- 9/18/2013
Timing of the College/Walnut & 45/46 traffic signal is off. Commuting home from work 9/17 traveling west at 5:15, traffic was backed up past Dunn St. Commuting to work 9/18 traveling east at 8:15, traffic was backed up past Kinser Pk. I sat through three red lights before making it through the intersection. This is not typical for the intersection and is not an efficient flow of traffic.
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
1355 W Bloomfield RD
- Case Date:
- 9/18/2013
W. 2nd st. heading east, & I think just after the landmark intersection, there is a pot hole that is on the white line and to the right of it. It's only a hazard to cyclists and pedestrians, it is not in the road.
I, being a cyclist, have it full speed once before going down that portion of the hill. Knowing what to expect, I ride my bike along that portion of the road, a foot to the left of the line.
Thank you

PS. I'll try and take a picture of it, and yes I know it is a low priority.

Just an observation:
I noticed in the municipal rules for Bloomington bicycling, that Tricycles are still listed as toys and exempt from the regular rules , and in some cases prohibited from the regular rules of the bicyclists.
I feel as though a clarification may be needed, as there are tricycles that are not toys in the familiar sense.
My "bike" has 3 wheels and has the ability to keep pace with road traffic in some areas of town. The wheel size on my trike is 20", and by no means a kids play toy in the conventional sense as my top speed is about 50 MPH (yes, non-motorized)
Thank you for you consideration into looking into the update of the language for tricycle definition.
Sincerely
Randy Craw, proud owner of a modified for speed, recumbent, Catrike, road edition bike.
