Minor issue now, but will need attention soon. McDonalds on 3rd and Pete Ellis have thorny bushes encroaching the sidewalk along the Pete Ellis side.

Was disappointed to see no improvements to the steps on the steep hill when the updates to the roundabout were made. Can we please consider updating these steps sometime? They are all different lengths and angles which makes them difficult, awkward, and dangerous to traverse. Plus, kids cannot ride their bikes down them if they wanted to ride their bike to school. They are not accessible for wheelchair users either.
Driveway gravel covering sidewalk. I have rectified this before when the volume was much smaller. It seem to be a defect, although it may meet code. Neither residents, nor owners/management are cognizant of the issue, apparently. They still haven't rectified the reported and NOVed light trespass issue either.
Please consider banning parking in front of curb cuts. People with disabilities can have difficulties getting into the cars of people picking them up when other people park in from of their curb cuts. Curb cuts should be treated like driveways and should be kept open, not blocked.

Turning right from 17th St onto Madison St is a nightmare. You're either going to hit the car that's in the lefthand turn lane on Madison St, or you're running over the decently large curb. The only cars that can safely navigate this are small cars. If you're a truck, SUV, or, God forbid, a city bus, you're in trouble. Cars don't turn at 90 degree angles. The radius of that curb is entirely too small.
The traffic light pole here takes up half the sidewalk, leaving very little room for pedestrians to get around. Probably impossible for someone with a mobility aid to pass (e.g. wheelchair, walker). Seems like a major ADA issue. Even as someone with fine mobility, I barely had room to get by while staying on the sidewalk.
Sidewalk along Landmark has no curb ramp on one end for wheelchairs and power chairs to get on and off. And on the other end which was just redone really has no curb ramp either. You might be able to drive an RC car on it that how narrow the flat spot is. You cant drive a chair up on it because its not flat. People in wheelchairs and Powerchairs are avoiding this and going the wrong way down the street towards 3rd in a blind curve. Its only a matter of time before a car rounds that blind curve to find a wheel chair user in the lane also heading towards them. We just had a girl stuck out there today trying to get on the sidewalk but couldn't. Somebody is gonna get hit. Please let us know how we can help you help this matter. Best Wishes, Kevin.

This curb and drain is improperly placed. In order to turn right out of Bittner Woods, you have to drive into the other lane of traffic (headed to the Sare rd load) to avoid running into the land. You’ll see how dug out it is that many people try to avoid driving into the other lane of traffic but then bottom out. This past Wednesday morning I also saw the Bloomington Trash truck exiting in the neighborhood in the entrance lane, I assume to avoid the same issue. We would appreciate if the curb and drain could be reworked to allow a safer exit from the neighborhood. Thank you!
