Street Snow Removal

1216 E Skylark CT

Case Date:
1/20/2019

Hi--we love the work the city road crews do to plow snow and sand for safe travel. We do have one request for our cul-de-sac, though (Skylark Court, east off of Highland Avenue). We'd appreciate it if the plow drivers could return and plow the large pile of snow covering the lone storm water drain off to the side, so as to uncover the drain. Also, in the future, can they please avoid piling snow that storm water drain. It is the drain for the entire cul-de-sac. In the photo, this location is shown approximately by the red arrow. When snow is piled over this drain, as snow melts from anywhere uphill, or if it rains, the snow pile caps off the drain and the bottom of the cul-de-sac floods. The storm water drain is at the bottom of the cul-de-sac, which is all one slope, so A LOT of water runs to that one drain. One concern we have with the flooding is that several utility hook-ups (electricity, telephone, and cable) are just a foot or two away from the drain. Things have been done this way for years, and we have always taken it upon ourselves to shovel the drain clear, but this year we realized it would be a great idea to ask if the plow drivers could do this instead. Thank you!

204-298 E Matlock Rd, Bloomington, Indiana, 47408

Case Date:
1/21/2019

Walnut street up until old SR37 is almost undrivrable. NO ONE has been out with a plow or a salt truck and there are pieces of cars scattered among the roads that have been picked up from the snow on the ground . It’s incredibly dangerous and scary to drive considering it’s only a 2 Lane Rd. please fix this.

Street Snow Removal

2713 E Rock Creek CT

Case Date:

This is my second year reporting this issue. My family purchased this home on a cul-de-sac 4 years ago. Last year we removed our mailbox and installed a retaining wall because of already existing poor driaining issues in our area and the city keeps piling snow on top of our property and now the wall. I called Sunday evening and the woman I spoke with said, "cul-de-sacs" were tricky and the guys were out there long hours and were working in bad conditions while being exhausted. But she would be sure to give Joe my address and he would look into my complaints." I called Sunday because the had packed up a huge amount once again on our wall and blocked off half of my driveway. I was then told if we could get in and out of our driveway this should not be an issue or an emergency. Understandable but if the job was successfully completed then first time you would not have to come back. I woke up Monday not surprised to see even more snow had been packed up to our ever growing pile. So my issues are where is all this water going? There is no drainage in this area and all this snow will cause hazardous conditions with melting and freezing and having nowhere to go. Why are you bringing all of the snow into our cul-de-sac? Why are you continuously putting snow on a stone wall where someone could get injured after I have now reported it three times? There are a ton of kids in our neighborhood and surrounding neighborhoods and kids like to jump in big piles of snow. I will not be held liable because the city of Bloomington will not listen to or work with its residents. Finally when you contact the city of Bloomington instead of working with you why do they always seem to retaliate against you and make the situation worse? This is what happened last year when the plow driver asked me how I suggested he plow with my "plow experience." I have many other picture but this shows the pile today and how large it is and how spread out the city left. If it snows anymore my neighbors might not be able to back out of their driveway. Is this acceptable??

Street Snow Removal

2713 E Rock Creek CT

Case Date:

I had filed a claim earlier asking Bloomington to stop pushing snow on my retaining wall and that you had only plowed half of my drive. A driver came back and plowed and broke our wall. I have tried to email because the closed the claim saying resolved, but as you can see now that the snow has melted a little this situation is clearly not resolved. We paid $4000.00 for this retaining wall. I have called, emailed, my husband has come to your office and this is now my second claim. Please help!!

Case Date:

The hill near the intersection of Curry Pike and 46 is treacherous. Only one (1) lane has been cleared in each direction. Every year, this road gets neglected in terms of snow removal, but it is highly trafficked at high speeds. Why is that?
