The situation along the B-Line trail around the Grimes bridge is out of control. Tents have been setup along the side of the B-Line just north of the bridge. While riding through this area earlier this morning with my 11 year old, we had an individual come out of one these tents and start yelling at us. This does not feel like a safe situation for anyone.
The mulching "pilot" confuses me. Several people I know participating have always mulched. So how is this a pilot? I'm happy to sign up to say that I mulch, as I do, but getting people who already mulch to say they like mulching and they were part of a pilot just isn't true? Amy I supposed to sign up? Or just folks who want to try mulching instead of bagging leaves for the first time?
I urge city officials to be proactive with covid-19 and the delta variant. Being proactive now will prevent long term closures and lost revenue of local businesses. CDC guidelines are requiring mask if you aren’t vaccinated fully, but it seems everybody is going maskless despite being vaccinated. Go back to having restrictions at restaurants, local businesses, and public events. The city and its citizens have loosened up too much and are being too relaxed about this virus. The same mindset in other countries is causing havoc! Signed a concerned pharmacist.
The city giving a "prize" for the mulching competition of an opportunity to buy a subscription service to a for profit company that proudly partners with anti LGBT chik fil a is messed up. Rethink your plan.
Changing a racist discriminatory street name to one that focuses on a denomination that just July 7, 2021, AGAIN voted against same sex unions is not the intersectional work I would expect from City Hall. https://www.hrc.org/resources/stances-of-faiths-on-lgbt-issues-african-methodist-episcopal-church
Since the American eugenics movement focused on physical and perceived mental disability/sexual orientation/social norms, is that represented in the renaming of Jordan Avenue?
Please put the east side marsh to use somehow. Empty big box buildings are horrible for our City
Improvements on Smith need expedition. Contact State Highway and urge them please. Enough is enough.
I have no idea why it took so long, BUT it is so nice to be able to walk the b-line over the bridge and around the area of grimes and Morton and feel safe with my little kids. Please keep true to the rules and regulations surrounding Bloomington to provide to its citizens a safe community to raise children!
I had to call 911 for medical assistance for someone who was breathing, but appeared unconscious and was unresponsive. Around 10 min. later a police officer arrived for a well fare check and then he called for an ambulance. It ended up being more than 20 minutes after I'd called 911 that EMTs arrived. Why wouldn't they have sent an ambulance immediately? What I described to the dispatcher was a medical emergency. I understand that resources are tight, but I felt very frustrated and concerned for the unconscious person.
