The train trestle underpass just past Bender Lumber is an incredible eyesore of graffiti. It is an extreme example. I don't know if the city graffiti busters (I was referred to you by Mayor Kruzan) have used black paint to "address" this site, but if so it actually looks much worse. The older train track underpasses all over the perimeter of the city need to be checked and the graffiti addressed. Former Mayor Tomilea Allison's policy was to paint over all the graffiti at a site like an underpass with gray paint to completely remove any trace of tagging and defacement. She did this as soon as it was reported. This discouraged the vandals knowing that no one would see their dog-like marking of that territory.

This defacement (or is it some kind of horrid mural) I believe is on the back of the building housing Boomerang Hair downtown on the B-Line. It is in the somewhat protected section that is behind what used to be Irwin Union Bank and Le Petit Cafe, the back of Boomerang Hair etc. I am not sure if this site is on private property but I indicated that it was.

When the oil(?) storage tanks where removed from the lot across from the back of Seminary Square shopping center (Kroger's, Peach Garden), what was revealed was another brown brick building to the south that has a "smokestack". The north side of this building is COVERED in hideous graffiti and is is -right on- the B-Line walkway as it meanders south. This building looks like it is a real business but it is hard to tell. Was it the building/business associated with the oil tanks? The defacement was easy for vandals to do when the oil tanks were in place but they would be spotted now so maybe something -can be done about it-? Especially since it is right on a signature urban success, the B-Line.

I live at 817 E 2ND ST. The west side of my garage was tagged last month during the night (3/25/14) with black spray paint; it is the first time my property has been tagged, but a few years ago a person made spray paint drawings on the paved alley. The garage is along an alley mid way between East 2nd St and Hunter Ave. I reported it to the Bloomington Police and an officer came, took statement, and took photos. The case # 3/25/2014-114. I only recently found out from my Elm Heights neighborhood Association that there might be city help to remove the graffiti. Now that the weather is getting warmer, I am hoping that Graffiti Management will help me out. This person also tagged a telephone ground box located midway between 2nd and Hunter.
