May not be exactly the right address, but this drains from a downspout into the sidewalk. Not code, right? (Among other problems, that water can freeze on the sidewalk in winter)
The north bound lane on Indiana between 12th and 13th has some significantly uneven portions where the road was patched.
Street light is out
On 1st Street east of Henderson. Sidewalk tree plot needs mowing. There's a new duplex (address is on Henderson) but i don't know who is responsible for the strip. Technically that strip is on the other side of a fence from a conservation easement
Trash behind big red liquors
The easement on the south west side of the roundabout in front of Bentley Court is so overgrown that the vegetation is impending on the sidewalk. Additionally, it is impossible to walk a bike up the hill next to the sidewalk because of the vegetation. The steps continue to pitch steeper and steeper each years. Please investigate who is responsible for clearing this overgrowth and devise a plan to build and accessible path to connect the paths along Winslow to the Jackson Creek Trail/High Street Trail
In the little patch of woods on the west side of south rogers across from the community kitchen and The Warehouse there is a growing the pile of mattresses and other debris that makes it seem that that is a homeless squatting site or an abandoned squatting site that is turning into a trash heap. It is the little patch of woods that is between two Nervous Nordisc entry points. I suspect that's private property. So it does not violate the new state law against camping on public property. But i'm sure the amount of trash there violates. Some ordinance is regarding abandoned mattresses..... I've been watching it over the last few weeks. And it is growing.
Sidewalk and stairs coming up the hill from the goat farm on the South side of Winslow road is frequently overgrown and hard to walk on. The brush between the street and sidewalk needs to be extensively cleaned out and frequently gets like this. Could you please clean it up and figure out a long term fix going forward? This is a critical walkway to the park and school for multiple neighborhoods. Thanks!
Request for Zoning and Code Compliance Review – @826_shows Pop-Up : I am writing to request that the city monitor and review the operations of a recurring pop-up music venue publicized via Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/826_shows/.The venue operates out of a residential neighborhood, hosts public live music events, and charges an entry fee. This raises several municipal and state compliance concerns that I would like the city to address proactively with the operators: Zoning Use: The operation of a commercial, ticketed entertainment venue appears to conflict with residential zoning designations and the strict limitations placed on Home Occupations under the Bloomington UDO. State Fire Safety: Under Indiana Code § 22-14-3, public entertainment events that charge admission require a state Amusement and Entertainment Permit, which generally cannot be issued for Class 2 residential structures due to life-safety codes. Neighborhood Impacts: Recurring assemblies of this scale present consistent risks regarding the 24/7 noise ordinance (BMC Chapter 14.09) and residential occupancy limits. Please consider investigating this location and working constructively with the venue operators to guide them toward compliant business practices, or to help them transition their events to properly zoned commercial spaces.
