I moved into the edge of elm heights this past August. I grew up in Bloomington and never thought I’d be able to afford a home near Harmony, in this area, but the couple who sold our house wanted a family who would respect the integrity of the historic area and luckily, my parents invested in my moving here as well. I have two very young children and am a stay at home parent. I did not know when we bought our home that an unlicensed frat is behind us. When they party (which is fine-it is a college town) I don’t feel comfortable letting my children play in our backyard. It smells like beer, they and their guests yell over the din of their music and I don’t trust them not to toss beer cans in the yard (which they have). It saddens me that the current administration is not protecting families like mine from being priced out of beautiful neighborhoods. That all the old homes near me are rentals for students-not priced for anyone else mind you-and that changes to zoning may make this even more oppressive. Please do not allow single family zoning to change my hometown and now the hometown of my children. Let families like mine be able to live in real Bloomington neighborhoods and not pushed out to suburban dwellings and condos. We are the residents that stay and build this town and keep it going. The university students will come and go. I am a Bloomerang and maybe there would be more if others could afford to live in neighborhoods they grew up admiring.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

Hi, not sure what category this goes into...at the corner of Woodlawn & Southdowns, southeast corner, there's a big culvert on the east side, and this was blocked by leaves. When I walked by this morning the ditch was 4' deep full of water and spilling over the road; on my way back a guy & his dog were trying to clear out some of the leaves. Seems like a simple leaf-rake-shovel will free that up. Kevin Pilgrim cell 812 361 7181

I counted approximately 27 (twenty-seven) potholes on Rhorer Road between Sare and Old 37. These potholes have been around for weeks now. Please fill them before people get flat tires, or there's a collision between cars swerving to avoid them. Thank you.

Traffic on East Wylie St very fast, potential hazards, while a lot of kids are living (and playing) in this street. Need for better signalization, lower speed limit, speed cushions or bump-outs to reduce motor vehicle speeds (inspired by the East Allen Street Greenway project?)
