There are so many loose power lines all over Varsity Court properties. There is one in the main parking lot that is dangling so badly as well. I made a maintenance request for the other one and they just moved it into some branches instead of actually getting someone to fix it.
At the Dollar General in Ellettsville, the ashtray is located right next to the propane tanks. It seems a bit dangerous to have people smoking next to propane tanks, but eh, what do I know?

Near Westside neighborhood had yet another fire this eve--third since the weekend. Every time we call the fire department, the don't do anything about it, but this time, they could not ignore it because the woods were on fire with huge smoke plume. (See video posted on Near Westside Facebook page.) Mayor Thompson has asked us to keep reporting and to use this uReport number 192446, but we can't because the issue is listed as "closed." These issues are connected to the unhoused people encampment back between the rail lines just west of Butler park. What is the City going to do help keep us from having to breathe the toxic smoke on a regular basis and also to keep us safe from the fires?
Per anonymous online complaint made to the Indiana Dept of Environmental Management - A neighbor is dumping large quantities of oil into his back yard. His name is Samuel Cummings. He is running a mechanics buisness out of his driveway and is dumping oil from cars into his backyard and alongside his driveway. This is concerning to me as I wouldn't want my garden or yard polluted. He is also using motor oil when burning trash in a large burn pit in his backyard. There is a foul odor present when he burns trash and the smoke and fumes pollute my backyard and the other neighbors backyard and patio. He has been burning trash and dumping oil for months.
Large fire of yard waste.
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.
Lightning struck a tree. Tree has been slowly glowing from fire on the outside for past 2 hours in the rain. It stopped for a little bit but now it is back. Tree is likely slow burning from the inside.
