Hello, I am writing in support of local urban agriculture. I was very glad to discover GardenQ at 2110 E Covenanter and want to express my support for community based agriculture and education. I recently wrote about strategies for sustainable food policy (“Putting Food in the Driver’s Seat: Aligning food systems policy to advance sustainability, health, and security,” in Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, September 2023), and I believe their efforts are forward-facing in making Bloomington a hub and example for urban agriculture. Thank you.

About ten "Bird" scooters are parked on the street on Grant just north of 7th. There is no scooter corral at this location, and they are blocking a parking spot for cars.

The bump outs that have been added to Morningside Drive need to have reflective paint or some other sort of marking that can be seen both during the day and at night. My father pulled into town last night from NM (his first moment of moving to Bloomington!), and ran into one of the bump outs. The result was that he blew two tires. All of the bump out curbs already have many black tire marks on them, which is an indication that he is by far not the first person to make contact. I urge the city to add paint or something else that will draw attention to these, so that this doesn't keep happening.

During trash pick-up today, the trucks doing the work were leaking significant amounts of oil or hydraulic fluid at each stop. Because of this morning's rain, this left an iridescent pool at every pick-up location. We appreciate the great service provided, but both the trucks and the neighborhoods would be much better off without the leaking oils left behind. I suspect those trash trucks are very expensive, and will survive longer with regular maintenance.

The homeless encampment in Switchyard where the bike frames were stacked up - did the police check those serial numbers against their open cases of bike theft? Just wanted to suggest that to the police if they have not done that already, might close some open cases.
