I live on Marilyn Drive. I park a vehicle overnight on the street. I just want to make sure this is OK. I have read the ordinance where I must park going the same direction as traffic and I must not obstruct traffic, i.e. I need to make sure there is 12 feet for traffic to pass by. I just want to make sure on this. There are no - NO Parking signs on our street. During the snow storm I did make a point of not park on the street overnight so the snow plows could get through. Please let me know if I am OK with parking on the street - thanks for your help - Kevin Keough

This house was sold and purchased by new owners in 2016. Since then the number of vehicles parked on the street has grown to as many as 7 over time. For the last 8 months, one of the vehicles has had 2 flat tires and has not moved. There have been many times (especially during snowy winter days) where the street becomes hard to navigate especially with two way traffic. Is there any ordinance that recommends the number of cars one can park in front of their house? Can an abandoned car remain on the streets for months on end? Perhaps the number of cars is related to the number of families residing at this home; is there a limit to the number of families that may be co-housing? How can this be resolved? Aside from the driving safety issues, it is a visual blight on our neighborhood and a very unfortunate welcome to our lovely neighborhood.

A travel trailer has been camped on this residential street for more than a year creating traffic congestion. It is now worse due to the construction hauling trailer parked across the street and about two car lengths west. I just reported it as well.

There is a boat parked in the front yard and a trailer out on the street that is never moved. It is dangerous for cars and pedestrians alike. Also, it's just ugly and it should not be there. Thanks.

The owners of this house leave a boat parked on the street at least 5 days/nights a week. It is in a cul-du-sac. In addition to the boat, they park at least one, sometimes two huge trucks on the street. This makes it difficult for, not only neighbors to get through the street, but also the trash truck and possibly emergency vehicles.

There is a car parked in the alley behind my residence that is blocking my ability to pull out of my driveway. The car has been parking here for the last few nights and is here right now. I called the Bloomington Police and Officer Fosnaugh said that he would be able to tow the vehicle if the City of Bloomington would put up a NO PARKING sign here, and he told me to contact you for this. Who specifically do I need to speak to so that such a sign can be put up as soon as possible because this person won't stop parking behind my house, and now I can only get out when this person decides to move his car. The alley behind my house is not wide enough for cars to park here. Please help me.
