On the north side of E. Smith Ave, roughly 25 yards west of the intersection with Henderson, there is a tree that is covered with poison ivy vines. The vines now hang over the sidewalk, making it difficult to walk on the sidewalk without bumping into poison ivy leaves.

This will be my 4th winter in bloomington as I am a senior in college and this city really needs some MAJOR renovations to the roads, sidewalks, trees blocking stop signs, etc. My particular issue right now is the extreme safety issue that it poses when the city fails to salt the sidewalks. In my hometown, there was RARELY a time that it snowed and there wasn’t salt on every sidewalk in town, or at least the sidewalks that any students would need to use to walks or ride buses to school. I understand that Bloomington is a bit of a larger town and some of this could be an issue for the IU campus management too, but it seems like the city fails to salt the sidewalks if they ever even do. They should be ensuring that sidewalks get salted even if there isn’t a high chance of snow. For example, tonight at the IU purdue game on november 30th, I saw so many people slipping and sliding and it did not seem like there was any salt on the sidewalks anywhere near 17th street. I almost fell multiple times and I was closely looking at the ground for salt and it did not seem like there was any. I have also noticed similar issues in previous years when there has been snow, the sidewalks are never salted or cleared for students walking to class from off campus. I know you can probably only control what is considered the city of bloomington and not IU campus, but if we are going to care enough about safety to line the entirety of 17th street’s sidewalks with fences and security guards, you would think the least you guys could do would be put down some salt. I’m really failing to understand why it is SO hard for this city to put salt down, like my dad taught me how to salt our driveway when I was like 14. I swear I could put salt down all of 17th street faster than this city could because this city isn’t even capable of maintaining streets and sidewalks that aren’t covered in potholes and uneven surfaces.

trash needs picked up from winslow and south walnut intersect6ion, and going east on winslow on the north side of road. ihave been keeping that clean for a long time, along with many other locations in town. i cant do this by myself . also areas on country club need some help. ill do the best i can to help but the city and other voulenteer crews are going to have to help. i care about the way our city looks. i get up many mornings at 3:30 an 4:00 and go out and pick up areas before traffic gets started. please understand im not saying that others have not helped. but im doing alot, which was my own decision. this is important for our town, thanks for your time.

Recycling bin full of non-recyclables has been sitting on the sidewalk for weeks in front of this house. Not sure if it belongs to that location, but if someone at the house took some initiative, pedestrians would be grateful.
