Potholes, Other Street Repair
- Case Date:
- 5/6/2025
I submitted UReport#202323 and received a response that the case was closed about the removal of broken pavement that I had removed from Sussex Dr and Queensway between High St and Monclair that potentially would be washed into the storm drains that the case was closed. I realize that this a busy time for the city crews responding to pothole issues. However several weeks have gone by and the pile of broken pavement is still at the base of my driveway at 2305 Sussex Dr. Hopefully a crew will get to this soon.

B-Town Diner at 211 N. College allows it's employees and guests to freely use electronic smoking devices in it's establishment, despite the health inspector specifically instructing the owner and management that this was not allowed. Employees have also allowed and encouraged a minor employee (under the age of eighteen) to engage in this practice. There have been complaints to the owner and management but these have been ignored or flatly dismissed. These devices are in frequent use by wait staff as well as kitchen staff.

Homeless people are again living in People’s Park.
They’re using drugs, fighting, leaving trash everywhere, screaming and yelling, urinating and defecating and have taken over most of the benches and tables.
It also appears that they are sleeping there overnight.
We bought ice cream across the street and expected to have a nice Sunday afternoon in the park for thirty minutes or so… we tried sitting on the steps of a business on the opposite side of Dunn Street but the shrubbery nearby was probably soaked in urine based on the stench.
We simply left at that point…..
No other Indiana city of the same size and population has a homeless population of 1 % of that of Bloomington and that is directly attributable to the fact that Bloomington attracts these people by virtue of feeding them and enabling them unlike anywhere else in Indiana.
I’ve lived in and near Bloomington since 1974 and this has simply gotten totally out of hand.

Homeless encampment at seminary square and on so walnut street is unbelievable. I grew up in Bloomington attended IU and have family here. On a recent visit I was appalled at what this city as been allowed to become!! Shame on you and the leaders in this community. We deserve better than what you are providing and allowing to happen here. U mention growing back…I can assure you this is not how business owners want the city to be portrayed.

Construction equipment is parked on the sidewalk. The city would not let businesses park this equipment on the street, blocking access for cars. Why do you allow them to block access for pedestrians? Thank you.
