My name is Jillian Rich and I am a business owner along SR 46 / E 3rd St in Bloomington, Indiana. This is a request for a new sidewalk. I have requested this from INDOT multiple times over the past several years with no result. INDOT has told me that the city could fund a sidewalk at this location so I am reaching out to make that request. This is the sidewalk gap on the north side of SR 46 / E 3rd St in Bloomington between Smith and Park Ridge Rd. My business happens to be located along a section of the roadway with no sidewalk on my side of the road. As far as I can tell, this is the only missing sidewalk along the entire section of SR 46 in Bloomington. My business is located in an urban area along this busy roadway, and the lack of sidewalk at this location presents serious safety concerns. Myself, my staff members, and my clients are forced to walk either in the bike lane, the drainage gutter, or the grass along the road. Because my business works with dogs, we are often walking dogs along the road. Some of the neighbors get upset when we walk in state right of way adjacent to their properties, so we are forced into the busy roadway. I have a fully blind staff member with a guide dog, and because of this lack of sidewalk, they are cut off from being able to walk the dogs in this area and unable to perform as many tasks as they are capable of. Often, we try to avoid walking by driving the dogs down to where there is sidewalk, but this is not always practical or worth the time. This is a very short section of missing sidewalk and would be well worth the cost to complete, and would benefit not only my business but the rest of the community greatly. Please consider prioritizing this location for a sidewalk and finishing up the final missing piece along E 3rd St / SR 46 in Bloomington. This is desperately needed. Thank you for the consideration.

At the end of our driveway, there is no culvert pipe to divert the water and it has since in the last couple years with the heavy rain, washed a massive ditch in between our driveway, which is an easement to the actual road a couple of times as you can see, they have brought the pavement up to, but even that it seems to be washing away on either side of our house. The driveways have a proper culvert that has been in place with pavement, put over it at the edges of their driveways and they do not wash out.

We live on a piece of property of about 5 acres roughly that are surrounded by neighborhoods that gives us approximately 19 neighbors. We understand water flow is inevitable through our property, but there’s two retention ponds for water on the two opposite sides coming from the same neighborhood that do not hold water and they completely drain through our property. The other issue we have is multiple neighbors have their sump pumps pipe that drains their water within a foot or so of our property draining into our property as well since we have bought this property it has gotten worse and the people around us on the other sides. Say it began after they finish building as the water retention ponds never worked properly.

Two vehicles are parked with their tires on the sidewalk on Coolidge Dr. Another guest of the same residence is also parked on the other side of Coolidge, caddy-corner with the other two vehicles. It’s hard for large vehicles to get through, and a fire truck or emergency vehicle would have trouble getting through the tight space. The parking situation alongside this residence frequently causes trouble for pedestrians and motorists alike.

Whose bright idea was it to host Indiana Bobcats football on a junior high football field? It’s noisy and an attractive nuisance. They are parking all over the area and playing adult rap music near children.

Can the city connect Blue Ridge Dr and the Visitor Center to the lower cascades playground parking lot? I'm asking this one for a friend, her vision was a grand staircase, more of an art object than a bike trail.

Can the city connect N.Old SR 37 to N. Skyline Dr? There is an old roadbed parallel to and south of the waterfall in Cascades Park and it's creek, with a yellow gate by the small pedestrian bridge by the lil circle thingy. Crossing N.Kinser near the basketball courts/ skatepark can be a little daunting with the poor sightline of the curve. I suspect a crosswalk further west at Skyline Dr may feel safer.
