Unsafe curb damage, north edge of Kirkwood between College and Walnut, dead center, opposite the south steps to the Courthouse. This is a trip/stumble hazard, which I know because I fell on my face there at about 4:15pm on 5/1/25. There is other curb damage along the same edge, and I believe the cutout around the lamp post is also a hazard. If anything still hurts in the morning, I will get medical attention.

Bloomington's traffic signal timing is, in general, inadequate. Traffic patterns in the city are highly variable, changing drastically as students arrive and leave with the university schedule and as new student housing is constructed. It would be wonderful if the city were to invest in a system which changes traffic signals in real time as a function of data collected from sensors at intersections. Surely there will be graduate students, postdocs, and faculty in the Luddy School eager to help out with a cool "smart city" project...

Greetings, lovely individuals of the city! I am here to offer my humble opinion on your delightful branding adventure which has recently made quite the stir in our community. First and foremost, your efforts to elevate our beautiful city are much appreciated. While reminiscing on the past, relishing in the days of old, and remembering what Bloomington was, we do have to think ahead. My understanding of the new branding and its message about our city’s identity could not hit the nail on the head more squarely. Our community is what it is because people came here recognizing something was different and that something was “a vibe” as the kids not say, that they also felt. But we must recognize that, in order to remain a thriving and vibrant community, “the vibe” must evolve with the times. If I recall correctly, our new traffic engineer and his young family moved from a large metropolitan city with everything to offer, to the 23 square miles in the middle of south central Indiana that we call home. I do not think I presume too much to say, he didn’t choose Bloomington for the logo, he chose it because he saw a place where him and his family could belong. That’s what Bloomington is. That is what I truly believe this new branding effort captures with absolute and robust precision. So I thank you. Let us not forget the words of Weston from the ever-eloquent artist 50 Cent as we face the challenges ahead: "Hate it or love it, the underdog's on top / And I'm gon' shine homie until my heart stop." PS I love, adore, and believe whole heartedly in our new “B” and the potential it will most undoubtedly unlock.

The issue is with this website/reporting system itself, not the courthouse. There needs to be a nonverbal method of reporting certain things - not the least of which being noise complaints. I lost my voice to cancer years ago, but I did not lose my hearing. I have a particularly loud set of neighbors, and I have been unable to do anything about them because I cannot call to make a complaint. I have seen other noise complaints on this website, and while their circumstances may not be the same as mine, it's clear there is a need for a nonverbal reporting method for noise complaints (as well as other similar non-emergent type issues). Thanks in advance, Mary

There are two street lights out I believe are city maintained that are just flashing. They are on 100 W. Kirkwood. First one is in front of Tivoli. It’s next to last closest too College Ave. it’s by a bench. Didn’t see a number on pole. Second light is next to the entrance to Fountain Square Mall. It’s the pole that would be close to Walnut. Or if your looking at the entrance from the sidewalk, it would on the right. It’s also just flashing nonstop as well.

How long, if any, has the permit for tents been approved on the square?
