Along Henderson where the new paved multi use path is being put in, the job site looks pretty trashy. The weeds are overgrown and the bus stop is just thrown into some poor citizen's yard it looks like. This entire project has been a complete mess since it started. The city takes forever on this sort of work and so far, nothing looks any better. Maybe get someone with a weed eater or a mower or at this point a bush hog out there to make it look like someone cares about their jobsite?

By the warehouse along the Bline: The lack of adequate facilities for the homeless population in Bloomington, combined with all the overgrown vegetation, and potentially the use of the warehouse as a shelter, has resulted in ~ 10 cars being slept in overnight. That part is fine. However, there are no facilities for people to use the restroom, which results in the vegetation (behind the warehouse) and along the Bline being used as a latrine. Can Bloomington please pay attention to the homeless issue and take it seriously? Covid is not going away there must be facilities for people to use the restroom and throw away their rubbish. Currently, it's thrown all over the street on Hillside. Portland built tiny home communities to help with the homeless population, others offer hotel rooms, still other cities provide YMCA-type facilities. Bloomington continues to take this problem seriously and help this critical component of our community! With regard to restrooms in particular, given our current pandemic, safe and sanitary options for human waste are essential. We still do not know whether coronavirus can spread through human feces. Given that we live on karst topology, it is crucial that people aren't pooping outside (never mind walking through it and the horrid smell).
Huge overgrowth in backyard, has also led to mosquito problems
1301 Woodhill... lawn grass over 8 inches in height, weeds at front entrance in excess of 3 feet in height, weeds beside driveway in excess of 3 feet in height, trash laying driveway, junk car in driveway.
