Accessibility Problem
314 E Smith AVE

My name is Sophie Hosei and I have been attending Indiana University as an undergrad student. I have chronic orthopedic health issues that have caused me to withdraw from school. My last surgery was a donor knee graft transplant on 7/7/26 and after 6 weeks of bed rest, the surgery was not successful and requires more operations. I have another surgery now scheduled for this Friday, 10/30/26, where I will be temporarily disabled for at least another 8 weeks. I signed a year lease with Town Manor at 314 E Smith Ave, Bloomington, IN. 47401 and have asked to be released from the lease due to this ongoing medical disability. The house is not ADA compliant and post surgery, I will be limited to the bed, then wheelchair, and then crutches for several weeks. My future state is mobility is completely unknown. Aaron Vaughn, property manager said we can only sublet the room and although we have attempted to do so, we have been unsuccessful. This is mostly due to the room not really being a typical room set up. It is a loft, where you can only go up via a narrow spindle staircase. There is no door (its just an open room) or closet and you can’t fully stand up because it’s a low ceiling heigh. No one wants to rent it. I am hoping someone can help me get released from the lease completely, while not affecting the other 3 roommates who are on the lease as well. Thank you in advance.

Request a new Street Light
900 W Allen ST
- Case Date:
- 10/27/2026
Please consider adding in a light for cars turning left onto Allen. I've seen so many close calls of cars not realizing they have to wait to turn left. You also might be waiting for a long period of time to turn left as people speed down the corner of Patterson, which makes it dangerous to accurately judge whether it's safe or not to turn left. There is a turn lane here, but I think a light would be beneficial.
Sidewalk Requests
690 S Adams ST
- Case Date:
- 10/27/2026
There is no sidewalk here, so people walk on the street. This is especially dangerous when people are walking on the street at night because there are no streetlights to illuminate them. Please consider adding a sidewalk for people to use as I've witnessed numerous close calls.

SECOND REQUEST
This is a follow-up to my request from yesterday (M, OCT 26):
"Blocked Sidewalk:
Other: White Volvo SUV is blocking my driveway access and my visibility by parking on the amber/yellow line - dangerous situation by blocking exit visibility. Thank you. -ecb 10/26-2026"
This same vehicle is still parked in front of my house (404 E 1st Street) in the yellow/amber line, un-ticketed. My u-report ticket #215216 states that it was resolved but to me it is not resolved if the car is still blocking the driveway exit.
I have filed u-reports for this type of incident on the weekends and was told that you (parking authority) do not come out on weekends. Now, I have made the request on a weekday (Monday) and the issue still does not get resolved. Can you please tell me how to proceed with a blocked driveway? This Volvo has been parked here since Sunday, OCT 25, 2026.
Thank you,

Yard Waste

One of three yard waste containers was not emptied today. If it's because the can is broken, that's because the crew broke it on a previous collection day.
