101-199 E Grimes Ln, Bloomington, Indiana, 47401

Case Date:
2/15/2020

This semi truck that makes deliveries to the gas station at Grimes and Walnut parks in the westbound lane of Grimes. I have seen this happen numerous times. Why is the gas station allowed to externalize the cost of a delivery onto the rest of society? The road is two lanes. The truck is close to both a stop light and a stop sign that makes the traffic issues more severe. A tanker truck delivering fuel is able to park in the gas station parking lot. Why should this semi truck be an different? The cost of the delivery should not be my problem. Instead of an inconvenience to users of the gas station during the delivery, it becomes a serious traffic hazzard for everyone else. This should not be allowed.

This Ditch Witch machine on a trailer has been carelessly left obstructing the entire lane of traffic on Southdowns just west of Hawthorne. Traffic is driving into the bicycle and pedestrian path with blatant disregard for those using the path. It is very dangerous and this company that left its trailer in the road should be fined a significant amount. Someone could very easily get seriously injured with this setup.

Public right of way in alley behind our house was blocked by four cars. Illegal frat is using the alley for its private excess parking lot. Request fines be administered to stop this practice. This is not the first time cars have been parked in the alley, but four cars at once is a record. The illegal frat needs to be convinced that the public alley is not their private lot.

Sat. morning I woke up to see the outline of an RV in the alley. When I went to take the photo, there was another car behind it, which subsequently moved. I was told by my neighbor that the RV had arrived Fri. night. As I was taking a photo, the owner came out and I informed him that he should move his car because it was in the public alley. He looked at me like I was insane, and then asked why. I also said he was parked next to my fence, where there is a large sign that says "No Trespassing," put up on the advice of Officer Dilts of the BPD. He then proceeded to spit out his toothpaste and water from his mouth onto the green area near the fence under the aforementioned sign. I do not know whether this green area is my property or the public alley, which is one reason we have been requesting that the City demarcate the public alley. I was also appalled by the nastiness. he remained parked in the alley until Sunday afternoon. I am asking for relief from the nonstop use of the public alley as the private backyard of this illegal frat (see Planning for their "Cease to function as a frat" NOV, which was sent twice to them with a final date of "by October 10, 2017." As is obvious from all the various Ureports I have written, most of their illegal parking occurs when no one is available at Parking. And when someone does come, the cars are not ticketed. I believe that only fines will discourage this constant viavai of cars and RVs. In addition to the fear that my fence would be damaged, the RV was hooked up to the house so that there was a motor/generator? going constantly and making constant noise. I am asking for you to come up with a solution to the private use of this public alley - a No Parking sign with towing and ticketing promised, or to vacate the alley so that the illegal frat can have their half to use as they please and we the homeowners at 1003 and 1005 E. Hunter may have our half to use as we please.
