Citizen did not give name or location. Said that Mon. am (3/23), her carpool was on way to work, got behind a recycling truck which was sitting "in the middle of the street". Said they asked the driver to pull over so they could get past and he "rudely refused" and they had to sit there for 15 minutes waiting.

Caller has tried to reach someone at animal shelter for 3 days. Is disgusted with phone system that won't allow him to talk to anyone. (I asked if he left a message--he had not.) He found an animal which he asked shelter to pick up and now he wants to adopt animal but can't reach shelter.) He also feels personnel are rude to him. He did not give name or number but number showing on display was 334-2515 (Bob Evans Restaurant.)
Ms. Robertson complained of overwhelming reluctance and poor response by the animal control officer she spoke with. She called the animal shelter after a Mastiff dog tried to attack her. The man she spoke with said he would rather not come and help her since there wasn't anything he could do if she hadn't already been attacked by the dog and instead suggested she use a broom to fend off the dog.
Mr. Lanaham said that he called Parks and Rec. to see if his daughter's softball practice would be canceled due to the bad weather. He said he talked to John Turnball, who he said was "arrogant" in answering his question.
Mr. Johnson complained that he had "somewhat of an animal emergency" but was unable to get through to the Animal Control/Shelter. I talked to the Shelter, and apparently they are short 4 staff members and are very busy. When I said that I'd received a complaint they apologized but said that it was important to leave a message, which the gentelman appraently did not do.

City trash truck #938 has a passenger side headlight out.
uReport ID #180633 and #180632 both show they were assigned to Mallory Rickbeil. My understanding is that she quit her job with the City and left town. She is still listed in the City of Bloomington staff directory though. Maybe the City needs to do a little cleanup on the system. Or maybe I am mistaken about her status of employment. Whichever turns out to be true, I just wanted to make sure those rReports got to someone and did not sit in the inbox of a non-existent City employee. Thanks.
