Hello. This is not a complaint. Its actually a thank you very very much. The turnabout that was installed on 17th St. behind tri-north is absolutely amazing. It has improved traffic flow so much. I thank you. I'm writing to let you know there are still a series of "sidewalk alternate route" signs that were placed on 11th and Blair, 11th and Maple, up by Mills Pool, and various other places leading from my neighborhood to the turnabout. They seem to not be used anymore and I notice they get moved either into the street, up into peoples yards, or back in the middle of the sidewalk. If construction is done, I just wanted to inform you that they are just generally being forgotten about by whomever put them there. If they are still being used, they are just laying about being ineffective. Just trying to be a good citizen. Thanks for all you do!

The wonderful new sidewalk so many of us use (1300 block of East Maxwell) was damaged by a cement truck working at the newly renovated home driveway, second house from Highland on the north side. On either side of the driveway, severe cracks will buckle over next few years with freeze-thaw and will be dangerous to the many of us who now use the sidewalk. Please see that the contractor repairs the damage done.

The sidewalk on 2nd St between Arbutus and Eastside has large sections of hardened paving material that is a tripping hazard and an eyesore. It appears to be from a road repair there (perhaps where the water main broke) and may have been thrown up on the sidewalk with snow removal.

In front of 600 and 516 W. Allen St.
The sidewalk is very poor and dangerous here. One slab is sticking above another at a hard angle. Whenever it rains, this area always floods a large pool.

With the snow that we had, the city plow trucks plowed in front of our house. While they plowed, they damaged a wooden retainer wall that was in front of our house. I have included images of the damage done. A lot of the wood pieces were strewn in our front yard, and I collected them and placed them in front of our retaining wall by the street. This is the first time so much damage has been done. We have lived in our house 3 years, and even despite the massive snow amounts we had last winter...the snow plows never damaged our property like they did this year. I have included pictures of the damage done.

I am writing this about the sidewalk area in front of the White House Flower Shop located off of E Winslow Rd. I am a mother with a toddler child and no vehicle so it is necessary for me to use the sidewalks as my child rides in a stroller. I live in Winslow Ridge Townhomes and have to walk to or from there to Henderson St to be able to catch Bloomington Transit. There has been several instances lately that traveling on the sidewalk is nearly impossible with all the snow on the sidewalk. I can appreciate that Henderson Court Apt and Winslow Ridge Townhomes have been able to keep the remaining snow to a minimum, but outside of the White House Flower Shop is always a mess. This morning as I left my home with my child I was forced to pull my stroller backwards through the snow because pushing it led nowhere. On my return home at around 5p.m., after picking up some groceries, I was not able to get through the snow which forced me to have to walk in the street with my toddler in his stroller.

On the north side of East Third between Hillsdale and the 45-46 bypass, all of the residences and most of the businesses have not cleared their sidewalks. (The only clear stretch of sidewalk is in front of Utopia KTV.) In particular, Bloomington Chiropractic, Sahara Mart, Travelodge, and Red Lobster have not cleared their sidewalks. East of the bypass, Arby's and McDonald's have not cleared their sidewalks. Could you please enforce the city's rules about clearing sidewalks after snowfall? Thanks!
