We recently purchased the home backing up to the rail trail. We have what appears to be a large dead tree on the trail side of the fence. We are concerned it will fall onto the home. Would appreciate someone taking a look. Thank you, Cheryl
I’ve submitted this before but we still have phone lines about 6 feet off the ground running though our side yard. We’d really like to know who to contact or have them contacted that these need raised for safety but also code compliance
W Allen St, from Bloomfield Rd to S Patterson Dr, needs to be completely repaved. The roads hills make it dangerous enough for the many vehicle types that traverse it, and that doesn’t include the copious amount of potholes and poor repairs that have been layered over top of each other over the years. Whoever the City is hiring to repair these potholes is NOT diligent and doesn’t care about a job well done—the recent pothole fixes are rough and bumpy. (That’s in addition to the several companies who have dug up roads and left them in worse states, like at S Rogers/2nd St and Bloomfield Rd/Rolling Ridge Way). I’m all for the City repairing roads, but I am NOT for my tax dollars going to poor-quality work! 500+ cars must travel this street each day, from residential traffic to the traffic from Novo Nordisk employees and its vendors/suppliers. Cars constantly swerve to avoid poor conditions, and it puts all drivers at risk. I saw that W Allen St was supposedly scheduled for repaving or repairs in 2025, according to the Street Paving Map, but I don’t know if it’s incredibly delayed or just woefully outdated. It would be great to have an update on if this street will be smoothed out with new pavement in 2026. Thank you.
This is a sample of what my curb looks like. Our short street is beaten up too. I've lived here since 2002 and would really appreciate having my curbs repaired. Thank you in advance.
10 inch deep hole, 4 inches deep. Child or bike could easily step/fall into the hole. My child has slipped into the hole - year old. There is another similar hole 50 feet north of the hole (same road).

Greetings! We had trash pick up service this morning, the wheel was broken off our recycling container when the truck set it back down. Can you fix? I'll leave the container out by the street today in case you're able to address this. Thank you!
The batting cages at Winslow are still not up, even though rec league practices have already started. That means teams and players cannot do batting practice. The same thing happened last year, when the cages were not ready until late April. Hopefully they can be up by this week. If help is needed, I know parents and coaches are ready and willing to assist. Unfortunately, the condition of the fields and facilities creates a negative cycle: the facilities are not properly maintained, people get frustrated and stop signing up, and then Bloomington sees low turnout and does not prioritize investing in improvements. Then the cycle repeats. If the fields and facilities were ready to go, properly maintained, and given a few needed upgrades, I believe rec league participation would increase. Winslow could also become a stronger location for hosting successful baseball and softball tournaments.
