Someone I know posted on Snapchat a picture of his girlfriend standing in front of the Lower Cascades Waterfall with the words "I love you" spray painted on the rock. He spray painted the wall which is an eyesore and contains algae and other living organisms.
Greetings. On a daily basis I commute as a pedestrian through my neighborhood. Part of my route involves the view of an entire length of a building filled with phrases such as, LETS WRECK SHIT, Hot For Crime, and LOSER. I wrote a letter over a year ago politely requesting the property owner remedy this. Additionally, I suggested they consider planting a hedgerow of sorts to restrict people's access to the wall. I have not received a reply, and no action has been taken. Can the city please address this? Also, There is graffiti all over the wall directly across from this but that is more offensive on a subjective level. Ultimately, both properties are owned by the same entity, and it would be really great if they maintained their property in a way that made the streets of Bloomington feel safe and civil. Thank you.
Graffiti is again on all the STOP signs in the Winslow Farm Development area. The City of Bloominngton replaced the signs with STOP signs (white paint with War graffiti underneath), but now vandals have placed War in black paint beneath the STOP signs). Almost all the STOP signs have this (Laurelwood CT,, Laurelwood DR, Bent Tree Dr., Alzelea, etc.).
Tag on back side of building visible from the B-line trail.
11th bridge has accumulated significant graffiti.
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.
Covered graffiti at the 11th st railroad over pass.
The speed limit sign on the east side of Fairview has been spray painted.
A few months ago (Beginning of September), I noticed spray paint graffiti on the front of the detached garage belonging to the house that I rent at 702 W. 13th St. My landlord asked that I file a report in addition to one that she filed (I believe for insurance purposes). Since this happened a little while ago, I'm happy to answer any follow up questions needed to file a report.
Huge graffiti along the entire Duke substation wall.
