I knew Longview and Pete Ellis were getting some apartments built in that lot, but apparently it is going to be more than usually allowed? I am SUPER concerned that you're going to be packing extra students (almost all will have cars) on a road that is NOT designed for heavy traffic but SUPPOSEDLY a bike path for bikes. It might be great, but what are the extra precautions taking place to ensure students zipping in and out won't disrupt the greenway and kill cyclists? Hoping some will be cyclists, but realistically there is going to be a lot of in and out speedy traffic there for what was a very calm road fantastic for biking. Want to make sure it's not overlooked. Also, anything big built east of College is going to experience major backup on rush hour times at College and 3rd. I know it's a state intersection but the city needs to look into it and factor in the ability of that intersection to take on more traffic. Something needs to change there. It literally clogs (outside of a pandemic) constantly with left turn traffic from 3rd turning south to College, which block eastbound 3rd street. Time and again. Part of the problem is it clogs at the next light (the city's I would imagine) by Fazoli's as the lights aren't coordinated well if at all. So two concerns: not a bad place to live, including for students - way better than century village hotel, but make sure the bike path remains safe! This can't be presumed. That area will change big time and cyclists need reassurance. And 2) light at 3rd and College is going to be negatively impacted and timing or something needs to be looked at there. The east/west greenway I was hoping was going to be getting ENHANCEMENTS in the next year or two, not becoming a motorist highway :( Thank you.

City government needs to help advocate against Duke for more reliable power infrastructure. Multiple times a year, not a one off, we not only lose neighborhood power but do so for hours and hours and hours. We lose hundreds of dollars in groceries each year. Many of our area homes flood as our sumps even with battery backups aren't designed to pump for hours on end on battery. And now, we are losing our salaries and important work as are supposed to be working remotely and can't. Don't simply say it's not a city problem. Help us. Duke refuses to bury lines or take care of dead trees in northeastern part of the city and I'm sure other places. Please use your lobbyist or whoever else to make Bloomington a place where power can be expected, not where privileged neighborhoods get it reliably and the rest of us live in the Middle Ages several days a year. Duke needs to do better for Bloomington.

Can you all have your IT folks add a covid-19 option? I'm guessing lots of people are asking about it. Anyways, I was going to suggest some businesses aren't really essential, like ice cream shops (I'm not a fun hater), but everyone hanging out in an ice cream shop parking lot is not exactly health goals for a pandemic. Also, I noticed police officers walking around without masks. Now that that is recommended by CDC are officers and other city staff being provided with such masks and told to wear them?

So are front yard beer pong giant parties allowed with the executive order? Ridiculous. Just west of campus on North side of 10th. Please tell me cops can tell these idiots to stop.

Please close City Hall to the foot traffic public IMMEDIATELY. Be on call for emergencies but staying open risks the lives of employees and visitors and acts as a giant shining beacon for other businesses in the community to stay open too and not take the virus seriously. Surely there are new steps that will be taken soon? Flatten the curve.

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?

Thank you for the awesome community fireworks display downtown! It brought neighbors out onto our porches and sidewalks to witness the display over our Near Westside neighborhood. I love the idea of continuing the fireworks display downtown in future years. It makes it so much more of a community event instead of something that happens on the outskirts of town. Chapeau to those who came up with the idea.

On Sunday a man was spreading weed killer on the lawn at City Hall. There were people with kids and dogs in the area that had no idea there was poison in the grass. Why was this allowed? Isn't the City supposed to put up signs if it uses chemicals on the grass? Why are they even using chemicals? This issue needs to be reviewed, if only for public safety.
