The City owns TWO Historic Buildings. The Waldron AND The Banneker. One serves white residents. The other serves Black residents. One is getting a $500k renovation. The other desperately needs roof, HVAC, windows, flooring, masonry and drainage repair. Recover forward should honor ALL residents of Bloomington. Black and white. Invest in The Banneker.
Update ice rink website. Didn't say closed online. Planned a big event and then told a private event is keeping us from attending. So apparently money talks and private events keep the public away now? Easy to update a website and not waste everyone's time. Lots of people came and were frustrated.
This very large maple is being strangled by ivy vines. I believe it is a city tree on city property. Somebody out to rescue it from a slow death. In the background is the mausoleum in Rose Hill Cemetery.
A very large sycamore tree on city right of way is being strangled by winter creeper. This tree is across the street from Kleindorfer's Hardware. Seems a shame to let this very old and very large state tree die because of neglect.
A very large and old sycamore tree is in need of attention. It has an invasive tree growing too close to and underneath this very fine example of a sycamore. I believe it is growing on city owned right of way.
Just wondering if there is actually an Erin Hatch that works for the city?? I noticed including my ureports that were assigned to her way over a month ago about city tree trimming has not been addressed. So I'm not sure if she doesn't work for the city and it's not being assigned to no one. Or someone isn't really doing their job. Thanks for your time.
The last couple of times we've visited the Switchyard park to play Bocce, the benches along the courts were overrun with people sleeping, drinking, and smoking. Not a very inviting or family friendly atmosphere. We also witnessed the same behaviours, along with what appeared to be drug use in the shelter house next to the playground. Will there be any enforcement of the rules at the park?
Lots of poison ivy on tree in tree plot at 115 e 8th street.
Is the city going to replace the tree they cut down in front of city hall? Really surprised planting season has come and gone without replacement of the tree.
