I applaud your efforts in making Bloomington a friendlier place to travel within, in regards to pedestrians and bicycles. I don't drive and have no plans or needs to in the near future. My family sometimes gets irratated by the by-pass back-ups having to take me accross town to school often but I see the workers working so I know the work will be done in a timely manner. Good Job!

Erosion: South side of Winslow heading East just before the hill leading to the Round-About. Some small white stone would be appreciated. Thank you.
Some kids got into the the barn at Schmalz Farm Park a week or two ago and left a "window" open. Now other people are going in and out. Not sure how many or for what purpose, but we can tell by the movements of a bucket they use as a stool. Mainly kids exploring probably, but who knows.
Would be nice to get an email or some feedback to know if issue was resolved. The 2 issues I submitted now show as closed. Does that mean the have been resolved ?
There needs to be improved lighting on Law Lane on the sidewalks of both sides of the street between the SRSC and the 10th street parking lot so that students are visible as they are getting ready to cross the street and while they are crossing the street. In addition, it would be extremely helpful to have a marked crosswalk across Law Lane from the SRSC to the 10th Street parking lot that has reflective paint on it or has reflectors on the ground so it is visible when lights shine on it and so students have a clearly marked area in which they should cross. I had to drive this way in the fall many evenings when it was dark and it scared me to death. The lighting was so poor that I had to practically come to a stop in this area to see whether there were students getting ready to cross the street. Thank you for your consideration! Carol Hetrick
Several areas of concern in the Winslow Farm/Walnut Creek neighborhoods: 1) Along S. Henderson across from the ice rink, adjacent to Bayberry Condos, and south of Wylie Farm Road to Graham Drive have a number of limbs handing over the sidewalk. 2) Wylie Farm Road from Henderson to Azalea Lane has limbs over the sidewalk (near Henderson and over the wooden walkways near Azalea Lane are areas of particular safety concern). 3) Azalea Lane east of Summerwood Court, across from Summit Pointe Apartments, and adjacent to the 2100 S. Bent Tree Drive and 2101 S. Bent Tree Drive has tree limbs hanging over the sidewalk. Also, grass and brush is growing nearly four feet high in the strip. (See attached photo) Thank you for arranging inspection and monitoring the property owners (Bayberry HOA, Winslow Farm HOA, and homeowners adjacent to the property on Azalea Lane) taking care of these public safety issues and code violations.
There is a large amount of gravel and sand in the street at the southwest portion of the intersection of E. Atwater and Swain Ave. This has created treacherous conditions for cyclists traveling east on Atwater and turning south onto Swain.
