A Bird e-bike on the side of the road, just after Prow Road and before the 69 overpass. It’s been there for at least 2 weeks.

The decorated utility box ar 2nd and College is in worse shape than the ones that have already been replaced. Are the plans for a new one? It's in a location where it's likely to get vandalized, but it had problems before then The box it replaced had bold colors and simple designs (including a peacock and a fighting fish). That I think is best for drive-by viewing. Bob Ross with a head full of happy trees was clever but too fussy. There was not design at all for the sidewalk facing side. On top of that, the painting began too late in the season and had to be interrupted. That may have contributed to how fast it deteriorated. So, please, opt for a SIMPLE design in BOLD colors, and approve a design that covers ALL SIDES of the box in a UNIFIED way. (And allow time for the painting to be done without interruption). I drive by that box frequently and its condition in a prominent location is distressing. Thanks!
There is a hole in the ground here where I imagine a tree was supposed to be. As it poses a tripping hazard, please plant another tree or fill it in.
A cone has been placed here to highlight the hole in the ground left by the missing tree. It’s been like this for at least three months and hopefully this is not the permanent solution. Please replace the tree or fill the hole.

This freaking metronome that's heard inside houses almost a mile away has got to stop please. PLEASE.
two bird bikes blocking sidewalk at 15th & madison. theyre numbers wvw4j and w65rp. thanks!
Lyft/Bird e bike left in front of wheelchair ramp blocking sidewalk making it impossible for the visually impaired, wheelchairs, canes, walkers, baby trollies, families holding hands with toddlers, grocery carts, etc to access sidewalk. While, yes, carrying nothing I can step around, I am speaking up for neighbors who cannot, and because this isn't an instance of just one sidewalk being blocked, but constantly walking around town and seeing multiple blocked sideways because of these rental scooters and bikes. Often, the people hired to charge them like to leave them in auspicious places while ignoring the needs of disabled community members or those who need full access to ramps and sidewalks. These neighbors could fall trying to steer into the grass or mud. Not sure how a city like Bloomington is supposed to regulate something like this. Been an epidemic ever since they were introduced, and those delivery bots around campus also expect people to just go around. They just stop in the middle of the sidewalk delivering Chipotle or whatever flashing 8-bit heart-shaped eyes at you like, "Go around me!" Well, some friends and Bloomington neighbors literally can't. [end rant] Thank you, HAND and city of Bloomington. Let's keep our town safe and civil.
See previous reported and closed #214590. The electronic metronome (or whatever they are using that is making a repetitive, loud clanking noise) that can be heard over half a mile away, and still disturbing even with windows and doors closed, must stop. It is disturbing the peace and comfort of many homes.
Food truck parked on residential street weekdays. Generator loud enough i can hear in my own home.
