There is a homeless camp located between Old SR 37 and North Walnut, just north of 45. The entrance is on Old 37 as you head down into Lower Cascades Park. I witnessed multiple individuals entering the area on Saturday afternoon. With a social distancing guidelines in place, it seems like an encampment is a disaster waiting to happen.
Whoever does mowing for the Old Thomas Sanitation Plant yard beside my mother’s home never mows all of the cities property. Her property only goes to end of fence at back of property as shown by the surveyed stake with a pink ribbon attached. This is approx a 5’ strip perhaps. Please inform mower to mow all of the cities property so we don’t have to!!!
What is the proper protocol for trash illegally dumped at the road? I got a citation as property owner that I have to clean up, stuff that was dumped in the street, according to the inspector most is in our yard so we have to clean it up. Which is a lie most is in your street and a little is in the tree plot. I don’t think I should be responsible to clean up what someone illegally dumped in your streets.
Hey its Zach with the Bloomington garages and our office in Morton street garage the light fixture is not correctly working and the lights just flicker now and never stay on.
I picked city performance to hopefully get this issue resolved. I reported this sidewalk blocked on 07/06/2021 Ureport # 176470. This thing that’s blocking the sidewalk is still there blocking the sidewalk as it shows in the picture. As many people walk downtown, I find it disappointing that this hasn’t been resolved.
I fully support neighborhood-based urban agriculture. Being able to see, learn about, and easily access food is important to me. I value having GardenQuest as a neighborhood educational hub and GardenQ as a place where I can source nutrient-dense food and plants.
Can the City PLEASE do something about slowing down traffic on East Morningside through Park Ridge East. I think nearly every resident on the block has complained, particularly those with kids. It can be speed bumps, but can be anything else too, raised garden beds in the street periodically, rumble strips, anything. But it's getting worse now that traffic backs up past the stop sign more regularly now at Smith and Morningside between 3rd and Morningside because of limited lanes at the intersection with highway construction. So cars when backed beyond the stop sign are speeding through the neighborhood as a shortcut to get back to 3rd/highway. Any help is super appreciated. Please reach out to the neighborhood association if helpful, or honestly knock on any of our doors on E Morningside and we'd be happy to provide input as those living on the street are most affected. If you want a handful of names of supporters, let us know, but in short it's a residential street that is full of bikers and walkers and the neighborhood is largely contained so doesn't need a highway through it on Morningside. We welcome any sort of E/W B-line that we've heard about or anything else that isn't fast cars. Thank you! It also goes right by the park! Oh, we did want to say thank you for the new tennis benches at the park though! Folks across the city use those courts, so they'll come in handy!
I had previously submitted ureport 180261 complaining about the state of E 14th St. It was closed out with a vague message that it'd be resurfaced "later this month". I realize it is still June and it may still get repaired, but the road has just continued to get worse and worse. The dust is ridiculous. I'm not sure if anyone at the city understands that days matter. Even if it is resurfaced next week, it is still several weeks past due. Has anyone at the city even driven down it??! I also happened to read that the same developer that turned 14th St into a gravel road is now the same developer who has messed up the intersection of 17th and Walnut. I can hardly believe that anyone would allow them to do more work on city roads when they clearly don't care at all about repairing other work they've done.
Thursday 03/05/2020: My wife was involved in a traffic accident where a lady ran a red light and then merged left into my wife. My wife called BPD to report the accident and officer C. Brummett (ID # 1578) responded. Officer Brummett exchanged the "Drivers Exchange Information" form to both parties. 03/06/2020: My wife called BPD after the 24 hour period following an accident where the law states that ANY VEHICLE ACCIDENT WHERE THE DAMAGES EXCEED $1,000, THE RESPONDING OFFICER SHALL FILE A REPORT. She was able to contact officer Brummett and he said he didn't file a report as there were "only minor damages". My wife explained that the damages to our car alone was $5,000. Officer Brummett stated that he wasn't a body man and couldn't estimate the damages. Officer Brummett then said he would have a report done and filed by Monday (03/09/2020). 03/09/2020: At the time of this writing it is 03/09/2020 @ 3:26PM. A report still hasn't been filed and according to BPD administration officer is out today. They also state that officer Brummett will be in training tomorrow, 03/10/2020, and not available. The person we've been in contact with also refused to let us speak with the Chief of Police about this situation and said to call back tomorrow. This is entirely unacceptable. We need a police report filed to get our BRAND NEW CAR repaired and officer Brummett has been irresponsible in his duties. The law states that the officer SHALL have a report filed within 24 hours. It's now been 4 days and it hasn't been done yet. Report # B20-09784
Our neighborhood has reported this resident multiple times and the city has done absolutely nothing to correct the issues on this property. This property is a literal junk yard, and when I say literal, I mean this without any exaggeration. It is littered with trash, abandoned vehicles, broken appliances scattering the entire yard. My kids go outside to play and are bombarded with mosquitoes that live in the water-logged abandoned junk all over the property. Can someone from the city please address this since the other departments are not addressing it?
