Pothole
Pothole
This bin has been on the curb for more than three weeks now
Dangerous Bradford Pear. 30ft tall. City came through trimming trees and left it where one half of the branches are gone on one side making it heavy on one side and the whole tree is leaning south looking to fall on neighbors driveway and car given the next big winds. Whole thing seriously just needs to be removed
Very deep pothole near the sewer opening on the north side of Maxwell Lane, about a block west of High Street.
For Council & Mayor Offices: The whole near west side within city limits that leads to what everyone considers the actual west side of Bloomington (whether in city limits or not) is being very poorly zoned and utterly bad development. The city never prioritizes parks or other greenway features - or even just simple street trees and better vegetation requirements. All the businesses over here continue to get gigantic parking lots and the less popular zoning cases (i.e. rehabilitation centers) are pushed to the west side. Where are these items on the east side of town? Or north? This is inequitable zoning and use of resources focused only to east side and downtown residents. We want to see better.
S Clifton Ave (between 1st and 2nd) is in need of a street sweep to clear tree debris that has been accumulating. Because the street lacks a storm drain, all the debris flows into and stops up the swale that serves as the place for storm water to go. After each rain, several buckets of debris (pine needles, leaves, crumbling road surface) have to be removed by us.
Overgrown weeds impeding sidewalk access
Both Hillside drive and High Street are heavily used. Hillside is a major east west thoroughfare and High street is a commonly used to go north to south and skip utilizing college mall and south Sare Roads. Moores pike / Hillside Drive and West Country Club / East winslow drive / East Rogers Road all deserve added lanes of travel. Going east to west in this city is painfully slow which causes a lot of dangerous driving situations. The roads are way to narrow as it is and distracted (or mechanical issues / health issues / Construction / etc) oncoming drivers leave very little room to avoid a head on collision.
On both corners of the T intersection of Hillside Drive and South Valley Forge Road, visibility is extremely poor and it is dangerous to try and pull off of valley forge onto Hillside going either east or west. If you are heading south on Valley forge and want to go east on Hillside, the bushes / brush / and trees block the view looking to your left; you have to pull out into the lane of travel to see left. The visibility looking right isn't much better but less of a concern because you aren't passing over an oncoming lane of travel.
This alley floods every time it rains, making it difficult for cars to pass through. It stays flooded for a while after the rain stops. If there was more rock in the alley it wouldn't flood so much/stay flooded for so long.
