For Council & Mayor Offices: The whole near west side within city limits that leads to what everyone considers the actual west side of Bloomington (whether in city limits or not) is being very poorly zoned and utterly bad development. The city never prioritizes parks or other greenway features - or even just simple street trees and better vegetation requirements. All the businesses over here continue to get gigantic parking lots and the less popular zoning cases (i.e. rehabilitation centers) are pushed to the west side. Where are these items on the east side of town? Or north? This is inequitable zoning and use of resources focused only to east side and downtown residents. We want to see better.

Buy now old biglots has tons of signage. Is this all allowed? Is this area going to get any redevelopment of the gigantic parking lot with no plants

Hello-There are regularly cars blocking the bike lane on Washington between 4th and 3rd St's a bit after 6pm.I wonder if there's a way for the city to make it clear to ride share drivers and customers of DaVinci that this is illegal and that they cannot block the bike lane. When there are 3-4 cars parked in the bike lane here, it really is no longer a bike lane and instead is a pick up/drop off zone. "Sending people to patrol the area" is definitely not working.
Thanks!

There is no sidewalk connecting us to Acuff for adults and kids to walk on safely. With traffic increasing due to the development behind us, we’d like to request sidewalks please.

This sign has not been reported before. 'Lighting the Way' sign in the ROW in the grass right next to the road.
Blocked Sidewalk
2nd street between Rose Ave and Anita
- Case Date:
- 4/14/2025
The walking bridge on Second Street between Rose Ave and Anita was damaged by a fallen tree about a month ago and has been closed since then. To walk to work, I have to invade a neighbor's privacy by walking through her yard. I have noticed quite a few people (including an elderly one today) walking on the street, which is very tight traffic-wise. Does the city have plans to fix it?
A second concern is one I've asked about several times over the years. Since I've heard about the plan to reconfigure the bike lanes on 3rd Street beginning on Rose, is it possible to put a crosswalk there (across 3rd on Rose). I have found this also to be a hazardous place to navigate on my walk to work in the IU School of Education on North Rose Ave.
Many thanks for your attention to both questions!

There is no sidewalk that connects the bypass to campus streets. Almost daily there are people walking in the roadway on 17th Street between the Bypass and David Baker.

The sloped driveway next to Waterview Apartments has calved another "asphalt iceberg" – which has slid into the bicycle lane, completely blocking it. This is very dangerous for bicyclists on a speedway where cars routinely go in excess of 50 miles per hour.

I'm inquiring regarding a fence my neighbor is erecting that is well over 6 feet at every post. If I was to dispute or request someone come out and inspect the fence, how would I go about doing that?
Please see the attached photos.
Thank you so much for your help!
Best wishes,
