Accessibility Problem

Case Date:
8/20/2018

My friend, who uses a wheelchair for mobility, and I went to the Office Lounge on Saturday night. While the building is accessible the bathrooms are not. The door was not wide enough for him to enter and he has a small manual chair. A larger motorized wheelchair would not fit either. The manager apologized and offered to clear the women's bathroom, but he had already looked at the door and determined it was not wide enough either. Besides that, I don't think offering another genders bathroom would count as accessibility? I know the OL has been around a long time and I assume there is some grandfathering of pre-accessibility guidelines, but at some point don't they have to come "up to code"? Is that only if they do renovations? How long can they remain un-accessible? I hope there is someone who can address this issue because we would like to be able to visit the OL again, but will not if he can't use the restroom while there. Thank you for your help!

Hello - I wanted to ask if the city could do a better job decorating for Christmas this year. We moved up from Florida last year and was very surprised that there was no Christmas tree in the city center, and meager decorations -- just some strings of white lights on the courthouse. It didn't feel festive or beautiful or special. It's important, maybe not for students, but for families, older people and also business owners, I would think, to have a festive, Christmas-y and beautiful downtown. Please, Bloomington, put up a big Christmas tree this year on or around the courthouse square, and have a special lighting ceremony, with Christmas and holiday music. And do Christmas decorations on the lamp posts on Kirkwood, and maybe string lights over the avenue (like in the photo attached here, of Clematis Street in West Palm Beach). It's these things that make a town really wonderful. Or not. Thank you, Margaret Menge

Parking Permits

Case Date:

I pay $67 a month to park in the Morton St. garage. For the past week and a half almost, the gates to the garage have always been open. Anyone can come and go as they please. What exactly am I paying for if it has been open this long?

The pump at the bike repair station by Bloomingfoods on the B-Line is broken. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that until I had lost too much air trying to fit the pump on.

Street Lights

Case Date:
9/5/2014

The street lamp between 2414 and 2420 East Rock Creek Drive is burned out. So is at least one street light east of this one. I hope you can fix it quickly as it is completely dark in the mornings when secondary students walk along this street to catch the school bus.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

Case Date:
9/5/2014

I don't know if this is a traditional pothole, but a hole has developed in the street adjacent to the curb, directly in front of 756 S Lincoln Street. A crack emanating from the hole appears to be spreading rapidly. This is my second time asking the city to look at it (I called first). I'm very concerned, and hope to hear from you soon.

Website & Web Services Feedback

Case Date:

It would be nice if there were a calender of events at Bryan Park and Bryan Park pool. If there is it is so well hidden that I could no find it. The park web site says that there are many events at the pool and park but does not list when they occur.
