Corrections to case#193765 (due to auto-correct): overgrown invasives are on the *west* side of Dunn (not east), and the plants we would like preserved are *cypresses* (thuja/arborvitae, Cupressaceae), not "depressed".
Malodorous dumpster sitting on sidewalk, east side of Lincoln.
NOTE: Site with the issue is south of 426 E 15th St. The sidewalk is blocked by overgrown vegetation. This apparently has been an issue for a long time based on mature growth of the vegetation and the path carved out to the left of the sidewalk.
You have to walk on the median because tree has grown over the sidewalk. Needs trimmed badly
Invasives growing into sidewalk, blocking pedestrian passage.
East side of Dunn just north of Windfall Dancers. Mulberry and/or Bush honeysuckle overgrown and blocking sidewalk. We are not wanting the depressed (thuja/arborvitae) cut back, just the invasive so that pedestrians do not need to walk in the grassy ROW.
Cases #193296 (6 September) and #193766 (11 October) pertain to the same property/issus. Both are closed and marked "resolved", though issue remains. Invasives have grown over the retaining wall and are blocking the sidewalk. The steps lead to what appears to be a vacant lot, though there is a building at the far north end of this property. As per Elevate, owner is: The Teague Trust 2106 Casa Mia Dr San Jose, Ca 95124 If Bloomington would pass an ordinance restricting property ownership to local residents, and even better to require that property owners actually live in the buildings they own, most of the problems like this would go away.
The issue associated with Case #193767 has not been corrected. Large, smelly dumpster on the east side of Lincoln between 14th and 15th Streets remains on the sidewalk and almost into the street. This really is not completely the fault of the property owner. Can Rumpke be fined for placing it in a public thoroughfare?
I rode through on 4th heading west to east and encountered a fair amount of loose sand on the road surface. It is on 4th just east of Walnut. That was around 10:30am. I have not been back through to see if it is still on the roadway.
