The street lamps that are posted coming out of the sidewalks have been knocked out and not working for some time, but the building blocks any kind of light coming from busier streets and the light coming from 3rd Street and Allison jukebox is not enough that you can see walking down the sidewalk. As an employee of middleway house, my supervisor has given me permission to report to you that clients have experience not feeling safe and needing flashlights to navigate the sidewalk at night. The worst area is on the southwest side of the sidewalk between the gates of the new wings building down to Smith Avenue. It is also dark across the street from another building owned by middleway house, the rise at 401 South Washington. It is very dark on the west side of the street and our clients and are coming home with their children taking the bus when the bus station often is closed. Please work with whoever the property management is of that apartment building because I'm sure they need to install proper lighting for their own tenant's safety, especially on the doorways and entry points that make people feel unsafe walking by. I believe the city needs to install more lighting as well. This area has been begging increasingly unsafe, although close to 3rd St Police. Thank you for giving this the attention it deserves.

This is one of the few street intersections that I have encountered, particularly while walking at night, that has NO street light to illuminate the intersection of the two streets.

The area along the south side of Rose Hill cemetery on W. 3rd St, west from Walker until the lights from Cresent Donut and the Marathon station has NO street lighting. This is a corridor that often has the homeless headed to Wheeler Mission. I have driven on it at night and found people walking and a guy in a wheelchair as well in the west-bound travel lane of this roadway -- virtually invisible! Until Beacon's new facility is built, which I am sure will have outdoor lighting, this is unsafe for the bicyclists and pedestrians who travel this piece of the old Whitehall Pike.

I reported the light at the alley because when it went out they replaced it with a very bright LED light. It is like a spotlight into my backyard and windows. Someone from duke came out at "fixed" it by pointing it down. But it is still way too bright. All of the other light in the neighborhood are a soft ember. There is no reason for this light to be so bright. And actually we don't even need a light here it's at an alley. It is too bright into my backyard and windows at night.

The streetlight on this corner at Ninth and Jackson has been burnt out for literally years. People continue to dump trash, steal things from my porch, and cause trouble in this corner because it is so dark. Please for the love of god, replace the street light in this corner.

This is a recurring problem. In the fall every time it rains, all the leaves come down to the lowest part Park ridge East that's in front of my house. The past 2 years they just come and clear out the actual grate and leave a pile of leaves around it. Which means next time it rains in about 5 minutes the grate will be clogged again. Also they pile the leaves up in my yard and kill my grass. These are not my leaves. They're from the street. Last winter we went around this and you guys ended up having to come with a dump truck after you put them all in the street and then the snow plows put them back in the grates and then they had to be pulled away from the drains and then they got plowed back into the grates and we had a ice shield here where it floods every time it rains more half inch. And I ended up coming with a dump truck and six people and carrying off all the leaves. The Men who cleared it this morning said this isn't the way they would do it if they had their choice. I've called the mayor's office and nobody has called me back. I gave you the day to do that. So now I'm reporting it on Ureport.

The fact that you guys as a city decided hey lets wait until all the thousands of kids are back in school to start doing construction on roads all around bloomington. You had all summer and you decide to do it now, ive been late to work twice and missed a class start because of the atrocious decision making of the city. I am a college student and could have told you that doing it over the summer would have been so much easier on the workers, and residents. Maybe you guys should hire smarter people.
