open #208103

Sidewalk Snow Removal:

Other: Both sidewalks extending from the northwest corner of Kirkwood and Indiana are badly unshoveled – possibly never shoveled at all. This is utterly disgraceful in an area of very high pedestrian traffic in front of Sample Gates. It is perhaps the poster child of how ineffective the law is in Bloomington. The photos were taken on January 29, 2026 at 12.57 PM – four days after the end of the snowstorm.
