Business

Case Date:
3/23/2026

Case #209315 indicates that the City will not do anything about the blocked street and sidewalks in front of 1316 S Palmer because there is no evidence of a illegally run business. Please Google Jabberwocky Computer Rescue Services, which is listed as a currently open business at this location. Neighbors can hear his business landline ring at all hours of the day. People are laying underneath cars with the lower portion of their bodies out in the middle of Palmer. It’s a dangerous situation for everyone, especially the people employed by this business. https://maps.app.goo.gl/CjM5jGsxsrcbaQqi6

I am currently attending the virtual City of Bloomington Board of Park Commissioners meeting via Zoom. I am disappointed by the city’s negligence to make this meeting more accessible for those with hearing barriers. Why don’t ALL virtual city meetings have closed captions and/or live signing?

Case Date:

An out of town friend of ours was on Kirkwood last night. He had come to spend the weekend with his daughter, a graduating senior at IU. He saw that there was an incident brewing and approached officers, who he states were only on the periphery of Kirkwood. He asked them to enter into Kirkwood as the situation was getting out of control. He, a white man, was told if he felt uncomfortable around black people that he should leave. The police, rather than protecting the thousands of students, of all races and nationalities, chose to stand around until gun violence escalated. I hope that you are all deeply ashamed of your lack of concern for the city's residents. IU students, faculty and staff contribute untold monies to the coffers of the city and I hope that you will be able to come up with some sensible policies to protect IU students so they can celebrate the race and all that they bring to the city.

Parks & Playgrounds

I wanted to voice my frustrations with some of the new policies that negatively impact the high school golf programs that compete/practice at Cascades Golf Course. First, my understanding is that there is a new policy that the high school team and players cannot schedule tee times in the afternoon during their practice period on any day other than Mondays or Tuesdays. My son has a junior annual membership at Cascades (and has for the last 8-10 years), yet because of his participation on the high school golf team, this policy would presumably prevent him from being able to reserving a tee time on Wednesday-Friday from 3-5:30 p.m. Any other junior annual member who isn't on the team can reserve a tee time during that same time slot. My son pays the same amount for his annual membership as any other junior, but he is presumably denied access because of his participation on the golf team. If that is in fact the policy, that is wrong, unfair, and should be changed immediately. On another note, from what we have been told, I find it disappointing that many of the changes that negatively impact the golf programs (higher prices for range balls, new restrictions to practice space, restrictions to permissible days to schedule matches, etc.) were made without any dialogue with the coaches and/or high school administration. While I fully appreciate that Cascades Golf Course is a business and changes like these are necessary at times, it would seem that the longstanding relationship that the Bloomington North H.S. golf programs and players have had with Cascades would have made a discussion appropriate. That type of discussion would have at least provided an opportunity for the coaches/school to express how some of these changes negatively impact the team (i.e., how viable is it to have a JV team if practice space is so limited?) and how it negatively impacts the growth of the sport. I think a municipal city course should be striving to encourage local youths to play golf, and not making changes that discourage them from doing so.

Water Quality

Case Date:

Black flakes in my water that leave a greasy residue. I last reported this issue on March 16, 2026. The issue is not consistent but seems to pop up randomly which makes it a threat as it is easy not to notice when I am potentially showering with it, washing with it, and even drinking it. Photo shows the black residue left after filling my bathtub with water only. Quarter for scale.

There are people living in a trailer powered by a very loud generator in a house without utilities at 703 W. 7th Street. Is there anything that can be done to remedy this situation? The man who is swatting in the house is a bully who intimidates the neighbors. The man who owned the property recently died. ed house w
