I understand you are actively working to pave this street, but these loose asphalt ramps are not accessible. Very hard to use with a wheelchair, it's like trying to wheel through beach sand. No signage directing pedestrians to a different accessible crossing area

The new bicycle storage cubes are not benefiting residents and are creating two significant problems: Immediate Safety Hazard: The cubes are an attractive nuisance and severe fall risk to children. Preschoolers have been observed climbing and jumping on the units. This confirms the greater community need is a safe play area, not this storage solution. Unauthorized Misuse: The units are already being used as personal storage by non-residents (unhoused), leading to increased and unwelcome traffic into the residential courtyard. The project failed to consult residents on community needs. I request immediate action to address the safety hazard and restrict unauthorized access to these units.
Big hole in ROW around water meter. Very close to main gas line running under sidewalk, but the utilities have not been marked. Seems like there is a State law requiring diggers to contact 811 to locate. https://indiana811.org/resources/full-law/
An old house was demolished on Friday 7 Nov. It had been clad in cement tiles, likely asbestos-containing transite. It appears that there was no attempt to isolate the hazardous waste from the bulk, so is it now all classified as hazardous? If so, is the contractor required by the State to dispose of the mass of waste resulting from the demolition in a special way, or perhaps into a designated landfill that accepts such waste? Attached is a picture of tiles that were left strewn about on the alley (a public thoroughfare) after the demolishers drove away. In the days since, people and/or animals have been stepping on the tiles and crushing them, possibly releasing friable asbestos fibers. There is a dog living immediately across the alley from this now toxic site. Is it unsafe for the dog to walk on the ground in this area? Or does the City even care about such things? Maybe it would it be better to just look the other way and let the people with money do whatever they please (?)
Late construction in the middle of the week. Sometimes between the hours 12am-5am.
I’m not sure what the rules of construction activity that is permissible, but I would assume that blocking private driveways and working in a residential neighborhood at 3AM is not allowed. My son and his roommates are seeing construction workers using their private yard to eat lunch and even order food to their address. This is absolutely unacceptable and do not believe it’s allowed by law to work a construction site, pouring concrete, etc. in the middle of the night in a residential neighborhood.
Construction continues to obstruct private driveway of my son’s rental. They are placing cones and blockades well onto their private drive. Additionally they are pouring concrete and making noise at 3-4 AM waking residents and renters. Not acceptable!!!!!
The courtyard at the 900 block of North Lindbergh drive has always flooded. The situation may have just been exacerbated even after construction is complete unless proper drainage is included before concrete is poured. I also don't really want motorcycles and motor scooters revving up all hours of the day and night outside of my apartment, and hope that this will only be for bicycles and non-motored vehicles. We now have what may become a huge mosquito breeding pool in our front yard.
I was told by Rhonda at Bloomington housing authority that the construction project taking place in our courtyard on Lindbergh will be a covered structure for bicycle parking. My concern is if motorized vehicles like scooters and motorcycles park there, the c shape created by the three tall apartment buildings surrounding the courtyard already create an amphitheater that echoes every sound. The noise from bikes that people built themselves around here are loud enough, but if they're revving them up in our courtyard and if there's an awning, and we're in this low level across the street from a hill, please consider how loud this will be in our apartments where there's gaps around our front door. I work full-time and need my sleep at night and to rest on the weekends. There are small children living here who need to be in bed at night. Please consider including signs that there will be no motorcycles or motor scooters parking here. I think bicycle parking is wonderful and I am enthusiastic about having bicycle parking. In a previous report, I mentioned the issue that has already been present of flooding before this construction began, and tomorrow, there is a flash flood warning for all of Central Indiana.
