I'm Trying To Find Out What The City Requirements Are For Roads To Be Plowed. My HOA, For Brentwood, Has Not Been Cleaning Our Roads Or Sidewalks Saying The Requirement For Snow Removal Is 2" In One Snow. At This Time, Our Roads And Sidewalks Have Up To 4" Of Snow From The Last Few Snow Storms. I Know Bloomington Has Rules Regarding This, But I Don't Know Where To Find Them. Thanks.
I have been very disappointed with the snow/ice maintenance of Rockport Rd south of Tapp Rd this winter. Before writing this letter, I researched your site and discovered The Highlands neighborhood, and ways in and out of the addition, are exclusively excluded from within the city limits. It appears there is a cut out just around my neighborhood excluding it from city snow/ice removal. Now I realize why there is a huge difference in road conditions and safety once you cross Tapp Rd. With how curved Rockport Rd is in that stretch and how many pot holes and construction obstacles there seem to be, it is very dangerous to have even a little bit of snow and ice on that road. I was very surprised that this doesn't fall under the city's responsibility considering how many residents there are in that neighborhood and how many children and school buses come in and out. I work at the hospital, a 3.5 mile drive, and have a very difficult time getting to and from work on that road. I have had to get a ride multiple times during this severe winter, as the hospital does not close and always needs its employees to be there, safe and on time. I want to know if there are options to get that road cleared during winter weather to increase safety for the city's many residents of The Highlands neighborhood?
City plow left a barrier of snow and ice at the edge of our driveway and we cannot move it alone. We cannot get out by ourselves by car. In the past 27 years, the city plow used our cul de sac as a turn-around location and NEVER before left snow at the front of our driveway. Help. We're not physically able to move the snow barrier that was left by the plow. We're at the south end of S. Brooks, one block east of the junction of High and Covenanter.
Snow still not removed at the following addresses: 114 E AND W First Street 1009 W First 651 S. Walker 329 W First "Canadian Apartments" 608 E First 918 E First The white House in the 1200 block of E First. It is consistently the same home owners/renters who do not clean their sidewalks.
