All of the properties along the west side of Madison St south of 17th street for a block and a half have not shoveled their sidewalks. Addresses 1221 N Madison St, 1217, 1213, 1205, 1203, 1201, 1123, 1121, 1119 N Madison St. Most of these are rental properties, including some newly constructed multi-unit ones that don't seem to have rental permits yet? Anyways, the new landlord needs to learn their property management responsibilities. Thanks!

For the past couple of years we have experienced an issue with our street snow plowing. As you can see from the picture the road is being plowed approx.. 10-12’ away from my drive and mail box. The other side of the street is plowed nearly to the curb. I am a retired senior citizen and it not recommended that I shovel that much snow. I pay my taxes same as my neighbors but am not receiving the same service. Thank you! Allen Percifield

Another snow report for yall! I previously reported this issue in ticket #206983 on 12/01/2025. City and County snowplows create a large mound of snow where Morton St meets the convention center parking lot, near the B-line. Yellow bollards block car traffic, but pedestrians and cyclists use this intersection to get on the B-line. So now we can’t pass. And it’s like 5.5 feet tall. Thanks for that Fern. Even with my back I tried shoveling again but the snow was too compacted for me to move effectively (and perhaps I should go to the gym lol). For the short term, is it possible for a smaller plow to try clearing a path through? I hope this berm isn’t stuck here til springtime. In the long term, I have a few ideas: 1) have the plow on Morton street plow southward as much as possible, so only the short stretch north of Smith ends up at that intersection (I know there could be other logistical factors I’m unaware of to make that impossible) 2) have a smaller snow plow (like used on the B line) ready to go in the area, so it can go back and forth to keep the path clear even as the big snow plows pile up the snow. Idk I’m not a city planner so I’m sure there are reasons my ideas wouldn’t work, but I hope yall can come up with a solution to keep this path clear. Thanks for your work in managing the snow. It’s a Sisyphean task. In the meantime I’m going to work on my back and go to the gym so I can shovel better next winter.

Street outside of Morton garage entrance is very narrow due to snow and not wide enough for two cars to pass

The entire north side of 3rd Street, from Washington to Lincoln is impassable. It appears that whoever cleared the FlexePark parking lot used the public sidewalk as a dumping ground for snow. The side walk is covered with at least 4 feet of snow. These people know what they're doing. The utter disregard for pedestrians is nauseating. Is the Bloomington City Code merely performative? Please give them no warning. FINE THEM.

Why does the city not enforce its rules on clearing snow from sidewalks, through fines? I understand that old people in residential areas can't always clear snow. But I'm talking about businesses. I tried to walk on the sidewalk up Walnut from HIlside to 2nd street today (1/27), it was not possible. There are a ton of businesses here who do not follow the rules, and it's a huge hazard because now we have to walk on the street itself, which is crazy busy. I mean you, Elkins Properties, I mean you, auto dealership, I mean you, Btown Smoketime, and even the post office! Why are these people not fined? The are businesses, cleaning the sidewalk it a part of doing business, they should be held accountable. Thank you for your attention

The entire sidewalk in front of the "Cityside by Alexa" apartments is completely unshoveled, as of late this afternoon. That is the north side of 3rd Street and the west side of Washington Street.
