There was a motorcycle accident on west 3rd and Yancy today at 345 pm. It is very difficulty to make a left onto Yancy from West 3rd heading east as you pass Wynnedale to make a left onto Yancy. There is no place to pull off and its extremely difficulty to see oncoming traffic due to the trees blocking your view to oncoming traffic
Street sign at corner of Matlock and Headley missing due to accident.
In mid June there was heavy storm damage on my property. Insurance company involved. A utility pole had to be replaced, but there are still a lot of cables on my property: in my fence, hanging from my trees, in my yard south of the fenced in area. My understanding is that the cables are Comcast (according to AT&T). I have contacted Comcast multiple times and filed a complaint against them with the attorney general this afternoon. When Duke came to replace the utility pole they didn't remove all of the metal security cables. They also didn't fill in the area around the pole enough. There is a big hole next to the new pole. There are exposed wires on it as well. Basically, it looks like an electrical hazard and it has kept me from cleaning up the tree that fell, do yard work, spend time with my family & dog in the backyard due to potential danger. I know this isn't an issue with City of Bloomington to address, but if you could help or advise on how to expedite the cable cleanup and make sure the utility poles are secure, straight, and that all surrounding wires are high enough on the poles I would really appreciate it. I'm kind of at a loss as to who else I should contact to get this stuff taken care of. Thanks!
Broken glass in bike lane between 7th and Kirkwood on Washington street
Due to the construction on East 19th street, I have not been able to get any mail for two weeks. This is a serious problem, considering I was also just robbed (as well as multiple other houses on my street) and I have a security system coming in the mail. There is a very obvious way to access N Washington Street that any navigation system reroutes you to, but none of the mail trucks have been going up that way. They could at least receive instructions to walk it up to the correct address from their delivery trucks, it’s a very big problem to not be able to receive mail and I’m a bit frustrated with the whole situation.
Culvert covers are broken. Wheelchair casters and rollator wheels get stuck in the culverts.
Gravel from this driveway is always spilling over the sidewalk. Frequently makes it impassable for anyone with mobility aids such as wheelchairs and rollators
There is a hole in the driveway of this complex on the direct route from the new sidewalk across to the street. My kid tripped on it last night after dark, discovering the issue. I'm not sure if it's the responsibility of the city or the apartment complex, but it is a safety hazard for pedestrians. It goes all the way down to the culvert. Thanks.
My street runs downhill from Dunn to Walnut. In our older neighborhood, there is no infrastructure to handle stormwater. So the drainage ditch in front of my house and 3 others is the only thing that keeps our street from being flooded completely in any significant rainfall. I maintain it by weeding and cleaning out leaves and litter, along with the culvert that goes under my driveway and can become totally blocked- despite the fact that the debris that blocks it runs down from every house uphill of me to Dunn St. I'm writing two request that this ditch be repaired, as it is full of holes and water is going under it, causing even faster deterioration. Although the ditch was installed by the prior owner and not by the city, it is doing the city's job here; it is handling stormwater and preventing street flooding. This ditch is a small and short-term patch on the major drainage issue in this neighborhood which needs to be addressed in a more comprehensive way soon. My basement, which never had more than a trickle of water for the 23 years I've lived here, regularly floods now. My uphill neighbors' eastern foundation wall collapsed in a rainstorm 2 years ago. Glendora runs like a river in any rainfall, and as you know, rainfalls are getting heavier and more frequent. I will take pictures to show that my ditch keeps one side dry so that the street doesn't flood all the way across. I would really appreciate some short-term help with patching and possibly putting a grate across the culvert, along with a response about a long-term solution. Thank you for any help you can provide.
Sanitary sewer is overflowing.
