1011 W. Howe St. North/South Alleyway on east side of property. And east west alleyway just behind.
Excessive growth onto the sidewalk, not able to pass and stay on the sidewalk. This spot is the northwest side of the lot, same problem on northeast side.
820 W 2nd is overgrown and creates a major turning hazard
Safety issue/Excessive growth at 820 w. 2nd street, unable to see on coming traffic west bound... trying to pull out off Euclid on to 2nd street, sidewalk also has excessive growth
By the cemetary where 3rd turns into Kirkwood both the signs saying which lane ends are not visible to drivers because of tree limbs. I understand that Bloomington wants to have trees to beautify the city but I have lived here 9 years and the overgrown trees that are never pruned or trimmed are a safety hazard!!
Clogged storm drain
Front yard bushes are overgrown, impeding sidewalk foot traffic.
Has not mowed in 6 weeks, overgrowth on our property and all around fence line. Excessive growth around the house and inside the fence. Weeds over 6ft tall. Reported twice last year. In addition, not once cleaned off the sidewalk for snow. I will report this this year as well.
The front yard is VERY overgrown. The backyard is HORRENDOUS.
To the City of Bloomington, There is a ~500 foot stretch of unmaintained city property, along the north side of the 300 thru 400 block of S. Morton St and boundary of the B-Line trail. This area has heavy overgrowth, attracting trash and debris and becoming a dumping location. A recent dumping of two discarded bicycle frames has prompted calls to police for possible theft related activity. The overgrowth is obscuring street signage, that could be a security hazard to drivers thinking that northbound from Smith on to Morton is unrestricted - which it is not. This area of overgrowth is encroaching on both S. Morton St, and the B-Line trail, and recently we've observed numerous late night gatherings of homeless/vagrants (on the B-Line) because it appears that this overgrowth provides visual shelter and seclusion from being observed along the B-Line from S. Morton St. If it hasn't already been used in this way, this area is prime for unsanitary use for urination or defecation in this stretch between S. Morton St and the B-Line trail due to the seclusion this overgrowth provides. To the north and south of this heavy overgrowth, the similar stretch of B-Line boundary is well-groomed, and offers the public the desired visual beauty of the trail, yet this ~500 foot section provides exactly the opposite as described in this cleanup request. We are asking that the City of Bloomington put this stretch of unmaintained city property between the 300 thru 400 foot blocks of S. Morton and the B-Line Trail, on a regular, ongoing, and permanent maintenance plan. Owners/Residents of 348 S. Morton St.
