The basement of Twin Recreational Facility consistently smells of sewage. We reported to staff who state they know but do not know the source and suspect it is related to sewer back up.

Hello City of Bloomington,
I'm inquiring as to a sudden increase in water usage for this service address 2476 S Walnut St, account #15464-003.
I'd like to request a verified meter read to check for any changes in the water consumption and any possible faults with the prior reading or meter integrity.
Please respond to my email with any questions and findings.
Thank you very much,

Sign not properly planted into the ground at the skatepark. It's barely into the earth with no apparent concrete footer underneath. I don't know if someone fell against it or if it was the insane winds the other day that pushed it back like this.

During rain, the surrounding mud and grime around the skatepark at the new Switchyard park drains into the park itself since there is no finished edgings. I don't know what sort of timeline the construction crews have on getting to this, but I just wanted to point out how bad it gets. Some friends had to get wet and dirty in order to unclog one of the drains and get the water out from the park. We had to get our own brooms out to clean this up later on after it had dried.
I understand it's cold season and there may not be anything to be done, but I feel like it needs pointed out. The skatepark itself is wonderful, but the work around it has been poorly taken care of.
Pictures of the area that pools and how mud ends up draining into the park from two spots on the north side of the skatepark are in this shared album.

Can we get a trashcan at Switchyard skate park? One was 'brought in' on opening day and has since been filled up and removed. It doesn't take but a day or two before things start piling up. Thanks!

I tried opening a ticket a few days ago about the need for a trashcan at the Switchyard Skate Park, but I apparently should not have put it under the ticket that relates to trash, as it simply got redirected to three different people and was then responded with a generic HAND response. This is city property. There is already trash beginning to pile up, and a lot of it is blowing around the construction. Please bring in a trash can. I would likely also be the one who will walk around and pick up the trash to put it in the bin.

Hi! I am concerned that the fencing going up around the dog park areas of the Switchyard Park has not been done right. The soil has not been backfilled around the post bases, and the fencing and sod are being finished anyway, leaving extremely large gaps under the fencing--large enough for my 40-lb beagle mix to fit under, as well as many other dogs. Just wanted to make sure those in charge know. I know it is a very large-scale project with many details to keep up with, but it seems much easier and more cost-effective for it to be fixed sooner (while dirt and equipment are still on site) than later (when the park is completely finished and people start losing their dogs under the fence). Thank you for your attention on this matter! Otherwise I am so excited about the park and it is looking great!

Oclott Park walk path, where it offshoots to Jackson Creek Middle School. There is a constant trickle of water that streams across the path and down the offshoot. On cold days it forms a treacherous layer of ice. Very difficult to cross that area when walking around the park and extremely dangerous for students walking to JCMS. Not sure if it's a natural spring or if the Olcott Building is leaking, but water needs to be diverted from running across the walking path. Someone is going to get hurt.

This is located on 1800 N Stonelake Drive once you turn off the main road. These pot holes are getting bigger and we are afraid that they will start damaging our cars.
