This is in reference to our neighbors which I think is 1857 E Cheyanne Ln.
What is the proper way to request consideration for a new ordinance?
Our neighbors installed a pool on the west side of their property and placed the pool pump and pool heater on the east side of the property. The problem is we now have noise in our yard, on our deck, and in our house when the pool heater is active. The heater is louder than the standard pump and the rumble is unfortunately a frequency that penetrates walls.
I think it is unrealistic to have to hear the low rumble of the equipment, particularly inside our house, but it is also frustrating that the deck and yard are also affected. Our primary living space and windows are on the south side which puts us in close proximity to the equipment. The other night when it was cool we wanted to open our windows, but the pool heater was on, so we didn't.
I think Bloomington needs an ordinance to require pool equipment be enclosed under certain conditions, particularly in neighborhoods where lot sizes are smaller and house density is higher.
The pool heater will likely be active from April through October, though I'm hopeful it will run less as the temperatures increase. Still, situations like these shouldn't impose on neighbors. Last weekend, it ran most of the time throughout the afternoon and into the early evening hours, but it comes on whenever it determines the pool temperature has dropped.

This residence always has an abundance of cars parked on the street. This weekend they were parked informing of our mail box also parked to the stop sign. This winter they were unable to plow our road because of the car situation. Our elderly neighbor was unable to back out of her drive way.
For the past few month since moving in they play their music so loud it rattles our windows and shakes our house. Yesterday the music started at 1pm and didn’t end until the early hours of the morning. Even after the police came and asked them to turn it down. Playing songs saying “Stick you fist in my Pu**y at high volume while there are families walking and riding bikes is not what our neighborhood signed up for. This has been going on for months as stated before.

New, ugly high 'popsicle' fence. Should that not be lower than 4 ft to be in compliance with the UDO?

I live across the street from this four way stop. At the STOP sign I have in the past (I admitted a UReport) and also and today seen a couple of cars that have not stopped at the sign. This is very concerning and the pin oak tree needs to be trimmed back. Thanks for reading.

The storm drain in the parking lot has sunk nearly 12 inches below level street/ground. It’s not a pothole around this drain. It’s a sinkhole that whole car tires can be swallowed in. It’s so unacceptable that this has been allowed to stay this way for weeks. There will be a person who truly is hurt severely one night when their car flips from hitting this in darkness.

The storm drain in the parking lot is so terrible that it has dropped close to 12 inches below the pavement. It’s not a pothole. It’s a crater! This can be allowed to stay this way.
