Ref # 207761...Ms. Bowlen I think you missed my point...I know crews don't remove the snow..and typically shove excess snow to either side of driveways..but into the driveway as was the case here...so now I have to remove the excess snow. There was adequate room to shove the snow elsewhere.
There was a pass over plow at the apartment complex. This has lead to cars being completely blocked in by packs of snow because the snow was not moved to one area. Resident received an email on Monday stating the streets would be plowed again and the sidewalks would be shoveled the next day. And only emergency vehicles were allowed to enter the complex. However, none of these things happened. Despite the staff and facilities living on premise and being at work in their offices. They essentially sent out an email stating everyone is trapped in their apartments and have not done anything since then. I understand this probably more of an apartment complex issue, but they are not listening to complaints from people. If you travel to Basswood to see the dangerous conditions, or call them, I'm sure that would be enough for them to take action.
Hello -- you closed my case (208109) without looking at the situation. USPS won’t deliver our mail because there is too much snow in the STREET in front of the mailbox. I don't believe that I am responsible for clearing a PUBLIC STREET. The city moved a large amount of snow and placed it in front of my mailbox and is now blocking access to my mailbox. Why can't the city fix the problem they caused? Can you please reconsider this? Thanks!
The bridge on W Allen (between Morton and Walnut) gets blocked every time it snows. I'm sure it's challenging to do otherwise, but every snow the trucks just push a mountain up against either end of the bridge. There's no reasonable alternatie paths. Please clear.
Followup to report 208191. I would like an explanation as to why this blacktop does not constitute a sidewalk, which is defined in municipal code Title 12 "any walkway or pedestrian corridor within the City of Bloomington's legally platted right-of-way." This seems to fit that definition. How are you making that determination?
Please see attached picture of a sidewalk that has not been cleared of snow.
Property management has no cleared snow front commons area. They are Granet Student Living. Thank you
The path between Hawthorne and Weatherstone that is part of the Hawthorne-Weatherstone Greenway is completely covered with snow and nothing has been done to clear it more than a week after the snow storm.
No one ca get their cars out nor even leave the parking lot. Street is also poorly plowed. Didn’t know if this was an apartment problem or city. So hopefully this can get solved
As shown by the sign in the yard, this is yet another rental house where the landlord never shoveled the public sidewalk. Photo taken 2026 Jan 29 – 2:09 PM
