I was burning leaves today, unaware of the city policy. The fire department came to my house, kindly asked me to extinguish the fire, and informed me about our policy. Even though I had done wrong, they were kind and helpful, which made it a pleasant learning experience for me. I love that in a town this size, people are so friendly and positive. Thank you city of Bloomington.
There is a rusting out grill on the west side of the building left here from when the fire department occupied the building. It is presumably broken and seeing as how the city owns the building, and the fire department has left, the city should probably clean that up.
Smells like gas leak by Hyatt and trail and intersection and wonderlab
Neighbor appears to be burning trash in am once per week. Thank you.
Large fire of yard waste.

Today I visited the Dollar Tree on the East side. I was there around 2pm. The store had multiple aisles overcrowded with boxes of stock needing unpacked. One aisle in general was completely full from one end to the other. This is the aisle in the photo. Other aisles had boxes on carts throughout and had a path to weave through. I understand that they are understaffed but this felt very unsafe. If there was a fire I do believe it could be difficult to get through the store to get out. It felt unsafe. I'm not sure if it is considered a fire hazard but in case it is I wanted to let you know about it.
There are patients on cots lining the back hallways creating a hazard.
