I tripped over a broken sidewalk and fell. I needed to go to the IU Health Bloomington hospital ER for x-rays and abrasions treatment. The sidewalk needs to be repaired promptly to prevent pedestrians from having falls like this.
20 feet of sidewalk along 8th Street is degraded and in need of replacement.
There is a missing street sign at the intersection of Kirkwood and ? Possibly Grant St. There is an uneven sidewalk plank in front of the corner bench at that intersection. While sitting there during the festival we watched nearly every passerby trip on that elevated sidewalk edge.
Foliage and missing sidewalk that need to be addressed.
Large shrub (bush honeysuckle?) at NE corner of lot has grown so much that it is now difficult to pass using the sidewalk on Cottage Grove. The property owner/manager (sign in yard says "Thatcher Real Estate") never shovels the sidewalk in the winter, but maybe the snow/ice complaints submitted to HAND earlier this year never made it to them. Probably good to be more proactive about this report, since the shrub is not going to just melt on its own like the snows did...
Median area where cables where placed in the fall is barren and needs grass seed. They left it in terrible condition
Curb and sidewalk entrance needs replaced, made ada like sidewalk across from it
Broken panel on the sidewalk in front of location.
Retaining wall on NW corner of 10th/Grant is collapsing (on-going problem), and one of the large stones is now lying on the sidewalk.
Caller to HAND reported that the metal drain covering on the sidewalk is sticking up and loose. It is very sharp and is in an area that is high-traffic for walkers.
