Drainage or Runoff
3515 E Park LN
- Case Date:
- 5/24/2022
I have a problem on my property with drainage. The drainage of my property runs off naturally into my neighbor's yard. His address is 3514 Morningside Drive. When a storm comes, his back yard pools and remains there for a few days until it is absorbed into the ground.
I discussed with one of the neighbors how this might be resolved and volunteered to help pay for pipes that would carry the water that pools in their yard to the ditch along Morningside Drive. The neighbor didn't think that would work. Now they have dug out a deeper hole in their yard and are installing a
"Sponge Garden." My understanding is that this will retain water and will not allow my yard to drain. This area has backed up into my basement in the past and flooded it. It seems to me that this will occur
more easily with the installment of the "Sponge Garden." I appeal to the city of Bloomington to send engineers to come and see if there is some way that water
can be drained into the ditch along Morningside Drive.

On Monday, November 17, 2025 at approximately 1:48 PM, a City of Bloomington Parking Enforcement vehicle was parked directly in front of the air pump at Circle K, 527 E Third St, Bloomington, IN 47401, blocking public access to the equipment.
This is not a designated parking space and the vehicle obstructed use of a paid utility intended for customers. I’ve attached photos showing the vehicle, its placement, and the blocked equipment.
I’m submitting this so it can be documented and forwarded to the appropriate supervisor. City enforcement staff should be held to the same parking standards applied to the public.
Thank you.

Traveling north on Lower Cascades Park Rd., just north of the entrance to IMI Concrete, there is a traffic hazard on the northbound lane. For several weeks I have noticed water coming down the hill and spilling onto the road. Normally this would not be so much an issue, but it is now washing newly-fallen leaves from the hillside's trees onto the roadway as well, making it a slippery stretch of road. As there are leaves on the hillside all the time, it's potentially hazardous, but moreso now. Where is this water coming from? It's not seen on other parts of the roadway, but has been consistently here the past few weeks I've traveled it. Thanks for investigating!

Sight line to turn south on Walker Street is obstructed.
Potential here to add pedestrian approach with yield signage to turn north bound. But for sure, the sight line needs addressed.

There is noisy construction taking place overnight at my apartment. This happened previously as 2nd street was shut down, making an unlivable situation in which construction loudly vibrated the apartment from 7pm-3am every night for a week. My last ureport received a response that this would not continue in the future. Since 2nd street repairs will take more than a year, I sincerely hope this is a fluke. Please do no schedule any more construction overnight. 2nd street by Rogers is a residential area with several houses and apartments. The jackhammers and construction vehicles are extremely loud and disruptive of sleep.

This is a corner house at the corner of Oxford and Thornton drive. There is a street lamp on the Thornton side that is NOT a Duke street lamp. It does not work at all. I can't report it to Duke because it doesn't have a Duke number and isn't in their system. That intersection of Oxford and Thornton is very dark.
