Trying to find way to reply to our previous report. The only way possible is to create a new one ... This is about UReports concerning RE: #202909 Thank you for the people who looked into this for us - Rob Council replied "Exterior inspection has been conducted on property. Does not meet unsafe threshold" How can this be if there is no longer yard fencing on South side of pool? Pool water is green, cover is off, complete access into yard to pool by alley (There used to be a garage that fell down and was removed before sale) Isn't there a City safety ordinance about pools? Ex. "In Bloomington, Indiana, an ordinance requires fences around swimming pools and other water-filled excavations. Specifically, Ordinance 17-19 amended Section 14.36.160 to align pool fencing requirements with the Indiana Administrative Code. This means that swimming pools and other water-filled excavations must have a fence at least 4 feet high that completely surrounds the pool area.
Elaboration:
Ordinance 17-19:
This ordinance amended Section 14.36.160, which previously required fences around all bodies of water with a depth exceeding 36 inches. Now, the ordinance primarily focuses on swimming pools and their fencing requirements, aligning with the Indiana Administrative Code.
Fencing Requirements:
The Indiana Residential Code (R326.27.3) outlines specific requirements for pool fencing:
Walls or fences at least 4 feet high, completely surrounding the pool and deck.
Self-closing and latching gates and doors, capable of being locked.
Alternative means, deemed impenetrable by the enforcing authority, can be used instead of traditional fences.
A combination of the above options is also allowed.
A power safety pool cover can be used as an alternative, provided it connects continuously to the deck and requires a key or other secure mechanism to operate.
Violation:
Violating the ordinance is considered a misdemeanor, according to Section 14.36.170."

I believe I have foundation issues that are damaging my apartment (that the maintenance people simply patched over without my knowledge, entering my apartment without my knowledge), a faulty heater, and mold in my vents and possibly air ducts that the BHA has all overlooked over the past year I’ve lived here. The mold has made me sick, i have to restart the heater in the middle of the night in the fall and winter when I wake up and realize it’s 50 degrees in my apartment, and the walls are celebrating from the 2nd story ceiling, the ground floor tiling, and the top of the staircase is starting to warp. I am disabled and have a toddler and they haven’t taken me seriously over here issues. I don’t feel safe in my own home and I have nowhere else to go.
Tenant called to say no action has been taken. Additional issues include foundation problems, heater not working properly and extensive mold issues. Complaint inspect. sch. 11/15/21 (MON) @ 1:30 w/JH. Mgmt. notified.
