The Kmart should definitely have housing but not ALL housing. That is a prime spot for community use. There should be a hotel or restaurant or some sort of component even a public park maybe? But not nothing but bedrooms :(.
I just want to say we are SOOOO excited for the east-west 7-line and can't wait until it expands east of campus to neighborhoods, but still neat to see the progress for now! Please keep prioritizing this important spoke.
It would be cool if our area didn’t lose power as much. But with as much as the traffic lights here go out you’d think y’all could get a battery or somethin
Amendment 4 would decrease density and housing options, the exact opposite of what the City should be doing. It additionally poses a real threat to the viability of actual families being able to live in such units. HUD and the law strongly disfavor eliminating housing options for larger families. Please pass my remarks along, as most resident such as myself can't go to nightly 6 hour meetings . . .
Hello. Is there a list of Pride Month (June) activities city government is sponsoring, hosting, or supporting in some way? Thank you.
Social Workers should NOT be reporting to police officers and police command. Stop being performative. Dispatch can be shared but social service calls should be handled separately by individuals who are accountable to their professional ethics and not a police force with inherently differentiated goals. Social workers should not exist for image control and saving money through less 911 calls, they should exist to help people, particularly the marginalized. Restructure before it's too late for these individuals to work WITH police, not for them. A shameful policy choice that you can still correct.
Is there some tool to send comments to Council? Why are people who supposedly supporting affordable housing instead supporting elite neighborhood interests pretending that the very prospect of duplexes in the core of a city somehow destroys neighborhoods? What a joke. Way to help the rich stay rich at a time of extreme housing crisis. It's a flipping duplex in areas that they make sense, not a skyscraper or dump site. Please send to their offices my concern that they are but catering to the faux progressives more concerned with their net worth that has already exploded in those homes above community need.
I'm not sure who would do this, but I think Bloomington, Indiana, needs to do a famous people of Bloomington historical exhibit somewhere. I learned today Mick Foley (a wrestling legend) is from Bloomington! Who knew! Why isn't this celebrated and out there in the public. Invite this man to give a speech or something!
City of Bloomington truck#415 had four individuals occupying said truck and none of them were wearing masks. I know city policy dictates that if more than one individual is occurring a vehicle, they need to wear a mask. If it helps, it was a white Dodge Ram pickup and has city sticker on side. Please address the importance of mask wearing.
Any idea what happened with the development that was going in on the Kmart off third? At one point a developer was holding talks. Would love to see some action there.
