I'm sorry NOT BRITTANY but Audrey.. Dear Audrey Brittingham, Thank you for your response regarding Case #209518. I would like to request that someone visit the site to inspect the designated smoking area and the cigarette disposal containers. Because the apartment complex has established a permanent smoking area immediately outside this non-smoking building, violations are constant and can be observed at any time. The police have responded to this location multiple times due to fires caused by smoking. They informed me that this is a government or HAND (Housing and Neighborhood Development) issue; however, each time I report it, I am referred to a different department. Is it possible for a representative to see this firsthand without me calling the non-emergency line? Additionally, would the Health Department be able to assist, or is there another official who can verify the proximity of this smoking circle to the building? I have numerous photos available to provide as proof if needed. I look forward to your guidance on who can specifically address this ongoing safety concern. Best regards, Jessica Hanna

There was a small fire 2 days ago started in the grass area of property of Governor Park Apartments and the trailer Court area. Its a smoking area where people go out to smoke. I live near there but not at the apartments. I see people who sit in chairs and use a green tin to put there smoke out and the butts are never put out. There was a guy passed out drunk at the can then later it started fire. The can was smoldering. It does almost every night and it's right in the parking lot of the apartments so I don't know how this is legal because it's near a apartment complex. Fire department comes when called but the fires DONT STOP. The can is not a proper cigarette extinguisher and it's has been an ongoing problem that I'm afraid it's going to start field on fire that goes into my property.

I recently advocated for my apartment building smoking to be25 ft away they moved it but it's now in the back of the building where there are 50 unit windows and ventilation system and out of contact HUD and I've contacted the PHA and I don't know what to do when it's 25 feet away but that is drifting to the windows and I know that there are people that could establish stricture policies. Help

After battling with code my apartment building it 25 ft away with the smoking but they only moved it 25 ft away but it's still entering the 50 some windows in the back where they placed it and going in the ventilation system and I've tried contacting the Bloomington Housing Authority about it. I don't know what to do any recommendations I was told that the PHA can help enforce stricter things or even make a designated smoking area that's further than 25 ft away when I reached out to Bloomington Housing Authority I'm not too sure if I spoke with PHA they weren't very helpful I thought about contacting the health department because they can come out and see which way the wind blows and where it's drifting inside but when I looked it up I really didn't see anything to tell them about smoke issues. This place needs an inpection for so much

This comment is for the engineering department regarding proposed improvements to the intersection of Smith Road and Morningside Drive. My observation of traffic patterns over several months suggests that the stop signs at the intersection are not the only problem. The terrain on Smith Road, elevation changes, vegetation and sightlines for drivers are contributing factors. For southbound drivers, the railroad overpass obscures visibility until the stop sign can be seen from the McCracken Way entrance to the apartments south of the railroad, although it may not be noticeable to a casual observer because the sign is beyond the crest of a hill. The highest point of Smith Road is north of the Morningside intersection. Many of the offending drivers are commuters who drive on this route frequently and have developed a habit of not stopping at an intersection that typically has no cross traffic. A Stop Ahead warning sign near McCracken Way would alert drivers to the eminent stop sign. More prominent (larger size) stop signs at the intersection on both sides of the street, with two signs facing north and two signs facing south, would command further attention from drivers. Additional amendments to the road surface would signal to those who are visually impaired, with speed cushions and small depressions in the pavement similar to those used on either side of the center line on two lane highways, creating a rumble effect of sound and vibration. An exceptional remedy may be appropriate for an exceptional situation.

At the intersection of 3rd and College, for the 3rd Street eastbound lane, the "no turn on red" sign has been covered (I think for several weeks now), seemingly related to the convention center construction. This feels like a mistake? I don't know how the construction at the convention center makes it ok to now turn right on red. Can the sign be uncovered so that drivers are reminded, "No right on red"? Thank you for your time.

stoplight is still malfunctioning. we sat at this light (on landmark, trying to turn left onto 3rd) for almost 6 minutes this morning before giving up. it just repeats a cycle of the don't walk countdown for the crosswalk and then eventually goes back to the walk signal. the 3rd street light was green the entire 6 minutes we sat there. a few minutes later when i drove back home, a car drove up to the stoplight at landmark and the light changed instantly. so i know it doesn't malfunction every time but this has been a repeating issue for over a month now.

Is parking allowed on E. Maxwell, between the 1400 block and High Street. There are two "No Parking" signs, one at the corner of High St and Maxwell; and the 1500 block has only zone parking. I'm asking because when cars are parked on Maxwell in the area without signage, the street becomes very narrow. I do not believe on street parking is allow between the 1400 block and approximately the 1900 block. Just asking for clarification. Thank you. V/r, Mark

The pedestrian crossing signal going from southeast corner to north east corner of W Patterson and S Rogers intersection never turns on for pedestrian signal. I waited through 3 full cycles of traffic signals and it never changed for me.
