Weeds around the trees
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).
Tree limb is going to fall on sidewalk - Gary our parking enforcement mentioned it and examination verifies it. Photo attached.

Grass overgrown
S Brookside ends just past the intersection with E Sunny Sloped Dr. The past several years the City has mowed, regularly, the grassy extension of S Brookside (going north). But some years I have needed to send a reminder. The grass is getting pretty tall there now...
The intersection where Clover Lane ends and Blue Ridge North turns into Blue Ridge East continues to concern drivers in our neighborhood. I’m the neighborhood association president and have had suggestions that we ask for the city to install stop signs on each street. My opinion is that getting rid of the brush would improve visibility and avoid the need for stop signs. This photo shows how it’s impossible to know if there is oncoming traffic as one drives up the hill of BR North and attempts to turn left onto BR East. (not sure why the photo is upside down.)
Bamboo is unmaintained and out of control. It is also spreading to neighboring yards.
