I am a resident in the area of Pete Ellis Drive and Discovery Parkway in Bloomington, Indiana, and I am writing to strongly urge you not to proceed with cutting down the trees along these roadways. These trees provide far more than aesthetic value. Mature urban trees offer shade that reduces pavement temperatures, lower surrounding air temperatures by several degrees, and help combat the urban heat island effect. They reduce energy costs for nearby buildings, improve air quality by filtering pollutants, absorb carbon dioxide, and help manage stormwater runoff by intercepting rainfall before it reaches drainage systems. Removing them increases runoff, erosion, and strain on municipal infrastructure. These trees also serve as critical habitat for birds, pollinators, and other wildlife, helping maintain local biodiversity. Beyond environmental benefits, numerous studies show that trees improve mental health, reduce stress, support public safety, and increase property values. Tree-lined streets encourage walkability and community engagement, contributing to overall quality of life. Mature trees cannot simply be replaced with saplings and expected to provide the same ecological, environmental, and economic benefits for decades. A replacement ratio of less than one-fifth does not meaningfully offset the long-term loss of canopy coverage. It takes 20–40 years for newly planted trees to begin delivering comparable benefits. Urban tree canopy is an essential part of climate resilience planning. Many cities are investing heavily in expanding — not reducing — their canopy to meet sustainability and climate goals. Removing established trees runs counter to these broader environmental objectives. I respectfully ask that you reconsider this proposal and explore alternatives that preserve as many existing trees as possible. If removal is deemed absolutely necessary, a significantly higher replacement ratio and a clear canopy restoration plan should be implemented. Protecting our urban canopy is an investment in the long-term health, sustainability, and livability of Bloomington. Thank you for your consideration.

Debris Removal (Sand, General Street Debris)

314 E 11th ST

Case Date:

Last year someone ripped up the building that was here and made a huge mess. Then they poured gravel everywhere on the alley and also on the street out front and even across the street in the grass section where the trees are. Then they just left it all a mess for everyone to look at. Can you please make them sweep up the street out front at least where it is difficult to walk and ride a bike, and maybe also the grass across the street? Thank you ahead of time.

Blocked Street

For some reason there is not enough parking in the lot behind this new building for all the cars, so some tenants are regularly parking in the alley on the west side of the building all night long and possibly during the day. Can the city do anything about this? It is really horrible at night trying to navigate around all the cars parked back here. Lots of times people park crosswise behind already parked cars. It is horrible trying to find out who owns what car, and after the new buildings on the other side of the alley are operational the problem will only be ten times worse because it looks like they also will not have enough parking for their tenants. WTF???
