Building recently removed. Now, used construction materials are being stored on the empty lot. Is the property zoned for such use?

Neighbor construction project to fill in his pool has caused dirt to be left in the street multiple times. Needs cleaned up. On going problem. Has left mud to be all over street.
corner lot has trash piled by an abandoned garage and car that has been there for over a year. This has been piled up since the house on the lot was torn down which has been years ago. I am sure the garage is packed with trash and garbage. The car has sat for at least a year, so it is abandoned.
We have substantial concerns with potential Greenway roadblocks City Council we heard were proposing to how it may impact Park Ridge East and our Greenway? We were told after years of advocacy that we were finally getting calming to East Morningside (this being typed as a racer just roared their engine on that road). We want to make sure planning is still moving forward in 2023 for the Greenway improvements, with improvement construction to follow in early 2024?
Not sure how to lodge opposition but heard Curry is wanting to build self-storage at 4600 Morningside. Total waste of a valuable piece of property on a Greenway. That East/West Greenway should be places people want to bike and walk to, not a wasteful self storage area that will be all vehicular traffic. Not to mention it's in a residential neighborhood and there is not a traffic light there and it will be THREE stories of nothing but storage? We can do better, Bloomington. If the City can reject for any reason please do so.
Dear city, I would like to send sincere appreciation for Hank Duncan of the city Pedestrian and Cycling department. He is highly creative and a real pleasure to work with - and is a true asset to the city for his willingness to be a partner in city bike safety. Thank you, Hank - and well done! Craig Medlyn, Bloomington Bicycle Club, Safety Director
Concerned with east side development being neglected. Lots of housing but collapse of business and retail. Next up no taco bell or kfc. Joellas closed. And we're getting junk storage and car washes. Please put attention into ensuring east side doesn't turn into a low utility housing suburb. Pay attention and actively plan.
Lack of full attendance of the members of the Board of Zoning Appeals over at least the last three months is seriously hampering the capacity of the City to handle land use matters in an efficient and timely manner. The Board of Zoning Appeals has cancelled its regular meeting for July 25, 2024 for a lack of quorum. While the BZA did technically have a quorum in May and June, there were fewer than all 5 members present for the entirety of either of these meetings. City council and the mayor need to appoint BZA members who are taking this responsibility seriously without repeated absences.
Bloomington Municipal Code - related to easements. "(d)Maintenance.(1)For features required to be in an easement, maintenance shall generally be the responsibility of the lot owner, except as expressly provided otherwise in this UDO or in the development approval." This is largely ignored and has led to groves of invasive plants, weeds the size of trees, and overgrowth which hinders access in violation of the city code.
How did the city allow hotel-type accommodations in R2 zoning on East Chris Ln.? Six cars are being parked nightly on a dead-end street, some new and some recurring. This is restricting access to mail delivery and sanitation services, and it will cause problems for snow removal. How is this kind of property usage being allowed to disrupt the neighborhood?
