The Bloomington Housing Authority has a resident that has requested an ADA be installed on Miller Drive the street to the south of Park Avenue so he can access the bus stop at the entrance of Walnut Woods from his apartment on Park Avenue. He also states it's hard for him to get off the bus at the stop on Park Avenue.
Vegetation overgrowth on sidewalk. Not sure if this is responsibility of CFC who owns the parking lot or the house owner of 418 E. 8th as it appears to be in between. But there is now a path that people are going into the grass because nobody can get by the tree branches on the sidewalk.
tore up sidewalk and haven't repaired
A plant is growing over the sidewalk prohibiting pedestrian walking on the sidewalk at this address 1189 Weather stone.
Stones from the wall along the sidewalk keep falling into the sidewalk. These are large stones and create a tripping hazard, especially for someone with impaired vision or during low light conditions. The landlord does nothing to address the problem which has been going on for a long time and is getting worse. Passers-by sometimes try to get the stones out of the way, but they keep falling back onto the sidewalk.
There is still a trip hazard on the overpass, adjacent to the convention center, near the steps. Sometimes there’s a cone over it but the cone goes away. Sometimes there’s a broken cover which is better than nothing. But now there’s nothing at all.
There are large stones blocking the sidewalk on the north side of 2nd, a bit west of Wendy’s and also closer to the trail. You wouldn’t leave barriers in the roads. Why do you leave them on sidewalks? Thank you.
The Bloomington Bagel Company at 113 N. Dunn Street recently installed giant umbrellas on their outdoor patio tables. As a result, the tables and chairs are extending into the pedestrian right of way on the sidewalk. The umbrellas are also not tall enough to safely walk under. It appears to be presenting several hazards and blocking safe access for pedestrians and individuals who use wheelchairs.
