I believe there is a problem with distracted driving in Bloomington despite there being a state law about hands-free driving for a few years now. Please inform me what BPD is doing to directly address this danger to the public safety of this city. Thank you. Marnina Patrick
Since the dismantle of 2 homeless camps last week they seem to have migrated down the b line to a wooded area in a residential area within a block of a boys and girls club, and 3 blocks away from a middle school. between 11th street and cottage grove ave on Summit st. The city just towed a few abandoned cars from this street a week ago. Now their is more cars that people are clearly living in. They are setting up tents and seating areas like its their living room, theirs tents popping up in the woods along this road, and the TRASH and SMELL is getting out of hand. This is becoming a safety hazard for children who walk home from the school and boys and girls club in the surrounding areas as this is a school zone. The people residing in this "camp" scream, argue, fight, and curse loudly at all hours of the day and night. They block traffic loitering by the cars and scream at any car that tries to get through them, and have animals who are leaving droppings everywhere and no one picks it up. This is also encouraging people to start parking rv's in this area as well, and it is turning into "skid row". PLEASE do not let this camp get set up and get as bead as the two you just dismantled. It will be harder to get them to leave the longer you wait to address this. I have found several syringes in my yard along the alley so their is clearly drugs being used and distributed at this new homeless camp on SUMMIT st. in between 11th st & Cottage grove ave. Right across from the gas station on 11th. thank you.
Street light - one of the few on our street- between my house and the house to the east has been out for months. Glendora is extremely dark without it.
A large tree branch broke with yesterday's wind and his hanging from a tree which is partially blocking the road in front of my home on 3657 E Tamarron Drive. It needs to be cut down and removed to prevent a mishap. I believe this tree was scheduled for removal some time ago.
Trash has not been disposed of for over two months, and is piling up. There is also trash in the utilities easement.
Pallet has been here for couple months. Can the city please remove this?
City Vehicle #689 has a headlight out. When will the city have its employees make sure their vehicles are in working order. This has been about the 5th time I’ve reported city owned vehicles not in working order.
A large amount of silt has collected in a dip on the north shoulder of the road, whish is currently marked as a bike lane. The pile of silt is so deep it causes traction issues for bikes, and has begun to develop dangerous ruts. I know the new multiuse path will make its way over there sooner or later amd the issue may be fixed at that time, but this silt has been collecting here for many months and has significantly worsened recently to create a real road hazard.
IU Packer trucks are having a hard time getting access to trash containers along 9th because cars are parking along the curb. The sidewalk was recently re-done but curbs have not been painted. Thanks Jill
