Neighbors who live at 3507 E Morningside Dr constantly have their dog off leash. The husband walks the dog off leash all the time. I have seen the dog multiple times walking up to peoples front doors and pooping in the middle of yards. I have spoken with the wife about keeping the dog on a leash, she does but the husband does not. This morning the dog came on my property and went into my house inside my garage and was there for several minutes. I took video. When I asked the husband to leash his dog and explained that it was the law he became very combative and confrontational.

Hi Virgil, I wanted to follow up with an email you forwarded to yourself today. The issue wasn't just a slight sprained ankle. Robin BROKE her ankle which required 2 weeks of a cast and 2-3 months of an air cast. We had to cancel a prepaid trip to CA because of this incident with a deer that would not have been the case if there were no aggressive deer in Bloomington. I know this might seem like a slight case to you, but it is huge for us. Once again, we have health insurance, but if we didn't...it would have been a huge Emergency Room expense, Orthopedic doctor expense x 3 and physical therapy. Missed time from work, etc. This isn't just a slight matter and I am sure if it had happened to someone else in the city it might have been looked at a little more seriously. The owners before us had been fighting the deer for years before they sold the house to us and now we are fighting the deer issue. Once again, will it take a death of a child (which I am sure will happen) before the city will do something about the urban deer problem? We have spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars trying to have a decent garden and fighting these deer and every year their population keeps growing and doing more havoc to the city of Bloomington's resident's gardens as well as the danger they cause and nothing gets done about it.

A skunk was ran over in front of our house a few days ago. It's smelling up the area pretty badly. It is on the white line on the edge of the road so, it's not getting flattened and destroyed like it would if it were in the middle of the road. I would appreciate it if someone would come pick it up and dispose of it. Thank you.

An adult deer has died on my neighbor's property (this neighbor is currently away and is unaware of the situation). The deer obviously died a few days ago and now the smell is really overwhelming - you can smell it a block away! Can someone come out to collect the carcass ASAP please? It's in the back yard of 421 E 1st ST. (We're at 415 E. 1st ST).

Neighbor's cat is coming across the street and hunting songbirds in my fenced backyard. Neighbor's name is Jennifer and she lives at 802 W 7th, Apartment 1. I have spoken to her three times about her cat. I live at 720 W 7th. I have a fish pond in my backyard and her cat poses a hazard to my fish as well as the songbirds in my yard. It is also making a toilet of my garden.
