On the northwest side of 2nd & Walker, the construction work has cut a massive opening in the multi-use path. The asphalt is gone across the entire width of the trail, and there is a probably 5-8 inch deep abyss that is very dangerous on a bike, and would certainly be challenging for anyone walking or in a wheelchair trying to get through there safely. Can this be addressed?
This house is in severe disrepair. Does not appear habitable. Tree crashed through roof, hole in garage from wild animals, siding fallen off, rock wall collapsed, no mailbox. Appears to be abandoned and overrun by nature.
I am requesting an inspection of the property at 1800 S. Walnut Street, Bloomington, Indiana, where approximately 63 used/discarded tires are currently being stored outdoors on the grassy area behind the automotive repair facility. The tires are being stored uncovered and directly on the ground/grass, with numerous tires positioned open-side-up. Several tires are stacked together while others are scattered individually around the area. Based on their condition and the manner in which they are being stored, I am concerned that these may constitute discarded or waste tires rather than properly stored usable tire inventory. I am particularly concerned about the potential for the tires to collect standing rainwater. The open tires can act as containers for water and potentially create breeding habitat for mosquitoes and other disease vectors. The tire pile is also located immediately adjacent to a wooded/vegetated area and a creek/drainage corridor, which raises additional concerns about rodents, insects, snakes, and other wildlife using the tire pile for shelter or nesting. The accumulation is also located very close to neighboring business property and appears to be immediately adjacent to the creek/drainage area. I am requesting that the City determine whether the storage area complies with the Bloomington UDO provisions governing vehicle-repair uses and outdoor storage of discarded tires/materials, as well as any applicable riparian-buffer, drainage, stormwater, floodplain, or environmental requirements. I am also requesting that the City evaluate whether the manner in which these tires are being stored creates a nuisance, fire hazard, mosquito/vector concern, or other health or environmental concern, and whether the property owner/operator is required to remove, relocate, cover, or otherwise properly manage the tires. I have photographs documenting the current condition and location of the tire accumulation. I am not asking the City to assume that the tires are waste tires; I am requesting that the appropriate department inspect the property and make that determination based on the applicable Bloomington and Indiana requirements. Thank you for investigating this matter.
Vehicle parked in same spot all week without a rear passenger tire.
There is a growing hole near the end of the sidewalk if one turns off of Henderson and walks west on the north side of E. Southern drive. It started as one of the holes drilled by a utility contractor, but it is growing and dangerous for pedestrian traffic, bikes, etc
A broken tree branch is hanging in the way of the path. Also the tree and pylon are covered with mature poison ivy, which extends into the pathway.
There is a new subdivision being built on this lot. The construction vehicles have damaged much of the sidewalk. When the construction is complete the builder should rebuild the sidewalk that they destroyed.
Overgrown grass/weeds at 916 and 920 S Larkspur LN. Surprise: Jeff Jones owner.
When the new road was put in they left a 2 ft drop so we can no longer access our side yard safely. We need it fixed ASAP.
The alley way to access our apartment from henderson street needs a lot of gravel. The ravine is so deep it has scuffed our cars and we are very concerned about popping our tires. Our apartment manager says this is a city issue and refuses to help. The other entry way to our apartment is most of the time blocked by parked cars making this entrance off henderson our only access to our home. This is very dangerous. Please fix this as soon as possible
