So you guys are sanctuary city which like every other city cry if you think you're cheated out of tax money you scream and throw a tantrum. But you welcome thousand thousands of helical elements to Bloomington with your hand wide open in between though and temper tantrum. So here's my issue we know they can't get a driver's license yet you see hundreds if not thousands of Mexicans new to the state driving now, which are unable to receive a driver's license and yet you guys are just nicely looking the other way. I saw a wreck yesterday or one of them took off after the rep because they didn't have a driver's license this is unacceptable behavior from the city you guys need to address it

Saw someone yell at/harass a city employee for being properly pulled over with flashing lights and hazards while picking up trash signage along the road and in sidewalk area after the storm, and now that everything has calmed down I wanted to report that here. As a resident, I would like to know that the administration is supporting these civil servants that are overworked and underpaid and doing the tiring, thankless work that administrations and councils make their jobs. Are you all making it clear to those bad actors in town that behavior such as that is not tolerated? With doxing online and such short tempers, things seem to only continue to escalate with those who are displeased with government in general. Are the City workers we need being protected in their day to day? I would like to thank those cleaning up the roads, reducing needless signage and trash, and ensuring everything stays clean and out of the storm system. All those many groups residents see out every day seem to go unnoticed but are so crucial to maintaining Bloomington. Thanks for your consideration and time.

I have lived in Bloomington the past 4 years, and have never had a run in with the police. I had been driving a nicer, 2015, Hyundai Sonata. Unfortunately I got in an accident where I have had to use a much older car. Since driving this older car I have been pulled over 3 separate times. One time was for "speeding" where I was going 35 in a 40. When I told the police officer I was going 5 under, due to traffic, he tried to tell me my license and plate were suspended. When I showed him it was not he got very frustrated. The other day I got pulled over for a headlight being out where 4 difference police cars surrounded me. I had a passenger, who was 22, and they asked him if he had been drinking and he said he had two beers and they got mad at him for legal drinking? I am the daughter of an IMPD officer and I think your police officers are extremely biased on the types of cars they pull over. I had messaged about the first offense since he illegally searched my trunk, and have yet to hear back three months later. I know police procedure, however your department does not. This is very concerning because I have been around police my entire life and have studied Criminal Law for the past 3 years. Your police need to understand the correct procedures and stop taking advantage of college kids doing nothing wrong.

Re: Case #165561 Some debris from the accident remains near the RR underpass. Trash and weeds are still on Adams, and on Fountain, and on 8th Streets. Streets near the university at least get swept. Can the City seal the streets, so the weeds won't grow?

Please update your police officers on policies regarding insurance, warranted searched, and speed limit postings. I was pulled over yesterday by a police officer who said I was tailgating yet speeding, and when I explained I was tailgating because I had to slam on my brakes since he pulled out into the lane. I believed he was making an emergency maneuver, however was just trying to get in traffic. He pulled me over, said he would cite me if I did not have my insurance, which I did, but it is also a law that I have 24 hours to provide that proof. It is also a law that if he has no reason to search my trunk, he cannot. However, he asked and I, politely, said yes. However, this was not necessary as there was no probable cause to search. Luckily my father is IMPD and was in direct contact with his supervisor. But I would like to make the city aware of this incident, as I felt very uncomfortable. Especially when said officer kept saying things were expired, then changing his mind when I said they were not. He was very unprofessional, and as someone who has been around law enforcement for 21 years, exhibited very concerning behavior. Thank you.

Thank you for the quick response and repair of the crumbling pavement and holes in the street in front of our house on Tapps Turn. I wrote to you late in the afternoon and early the next morning the work space had been marked and then repaired shortly after that. We greatly appreciate this. Thanks, Steve Ulrey
