Traffic Related Complaints
1919 E Maxwell LN
- Case Date:
- 3/20/2019
I would like to request a traffic speed study, or at least greater speed limit enforcement, for cars traveling on East Maxwell Lane between Rose Ave and Highland Ave. The posted speed limit is 25 mph, but it's a half-mile straight shot from High Street to Highland Ave, and cars regularly travel well above the speed limit past Maxwell Terrace Apartments and several homes with kids playing outside. Given that Maxwell Lane is a signed bike route that also has a blind hill, I hope something can be done to slow speeders and reduce the possibility of accidents in this area.

When work was being done on Tapp and Rockport, temporary sets of speed bumps were put in on Adams Hill Circle and Countryside lane. Every morning when I drive to work I travel Adams Hill Circle to Countryside to Rockport and go over 5 sets of speed bumps, and I go over the same 5 sets on the way back home. The temporary speed bumps are no longer needed since the construction at Tapp and Rockport is complete. I would argue they are no longer needed at all, but if members of the community still want some, please remove at minimum 3 out of these 5 speed bumps on this route; they are excessive.

Traffic Related Complaints
2701 N Kinser PIKE
- Case Date:
- 3/20/2019
I have currently lived on Kinser Pike for a little over three years, but in this last year I have witnessed two accidents right in front of my home. Two others were witnessed by my neighbors, for a total of four this year alone (not including the semi that took out the utility pole at the skate park). Just this morning (3/20/2019), a car spun out and almost crashed into the timber once again while I sat in my kitchen. I am extremely concerned about the curve on Kinser Pike right after the skate park. Traffic has become unbearable since we truly only have one way in and out of the neighborhood and to BHSN. I have also witnessed several school buses exceeding the speed limit by what I would guess is at least 10 MPH. I ask the city to please consider looking into this issue as we have children who live on this street as well as pedestrians crossing the street or using the sidewalks. This is still a neighborhood and it needs to be treated like one, not a highway.
City Performance

Why for having such a vibrant and significant LGBT community does the City have basically no local recognition and programming? The City does a great job at promoting the Latino, black, women, children, and many other communities and groups. But as far as I know we have no LGBT affairs commission, no awards recognition, etc. Maybe I'm wrong? But none of my friends know either. It's more than about not being discriminated against, it's about celebrating a unique and important part of local culture. Thank you. Hope to see this changed. I know the mayor is a personal ally but how about showing it in office. There are so many things that can be done to do better on this front.
Parking on Unimproved Surface

- Case Date:
- 3/19/2019
420 Eastside Drive, repeat complaint: this yard looks like a junk yard and car repair place. There are tires stacked up, several cars parked on the grass, one possibly without a license plate. It is an eyesore for the neighborhood. See also closed case #166781.
Trash
535 N Walnut St, Bloomington, Indiana, 47404
- Case Date:
- 3/19/2019
Repeat offender: trash in yard next to trash can, 1709 Circle Drive (at least I think that is called Circle Drive, otherwise it is Southdowns, hard to tell which street this house is in). It is close to the corner of Eastside Drive.

914 S Eastside Drive, several branches at the edge of the yard. They have been there for weeks. Yard waste will not resume until April 1 and they won't be taken as is, because they are loose and large.
