City of Bloomington, Indiana

closed: Resolved #172825

Biking & Walking:

Other: There is a walk way from Cascades Addition from near 651 Skyline Drive that goes into the Arlington Elementary School yard. I have tried but never have been able to find out who (school or city) is responsible for it. I think the school has cleared it out every year before school starts. Children from the neighborhood walk to school that way and people walk to Kroger or to the walking path and frisbee golf course at Arlington. Right now it is really overgrown and some people have come racing their bicycles and scooters out of it and almost hit us twice (they were young adults). There used to be posts on it so no one could do that or try to drive on it! Picture is From Skyline Dr. looking up (see cut off post). I think the posts need to be put back up and it definitely needs to be cleared on both sides of path from overgrowth.

Good morning, Karina. I took a look at this path. The southern portion looks to be on the school property. However, the northern portion, which I am betting is the portion that is overgrown, looks to be entirely on private property. If there is a pedestrian easement for the path, that could tell us who is responsible to clear the path. If there is not, and this path is just on the homeowner's property, I am not sure that we can require the homeowner to clear this. Let me know if you have any questions.
