Is the city finally taking the opportunity to fix the dangerous to pedestrian and hell to car crosswalk on 10th? Please say it's getting fixed to be better now that there is construction happening there. Anything would be better designed.
Can the city conduct a review of the historic preservation board? There is little to no predictability, and I'm confused what purposes the city has for the group. Who do they represent? They don't seem to favor property owners or take cost into consideration but they also don't seem to favor the public by thinking what would the public want to save. And they don't favor the neighbors (and shouldn't because it shouldn't be just about making folks rich enough to own historic homes richer) as they don't listen to them either? Who do they listen to? And what are they saving for who? There should definitely be protection, I'd just like to know better what their goals are. I don't know if the group functions as intended.
Please remove the tend of "we buy houses" signs on light poles everywhere. Has Christian cross and violates fair housing. Do they have a permit?
Police should wear masks, period. They are not above the law. And should know it helps. While they are at it, how about they actually enforce masks on out of town protesters who don't believe in them. Would be nice if the Mayor was in control of the officers and not the other way around.
City truck with license plate number 83810 has the driver side tail light out. This is also the same light for the trucks left turn signal.
We're trying to slow traffic in our neighborhood on e Morningside. Can Bloomington transit set a better example and go a reasonable speed please
City of Bloomington truck #415 pulled into Grab and Go around 3:15PM on 9.21.2020 and doored (opened his drivers side door and hit my passenger side door) my car. The picture is sideways.
Why are there at least 5 open LGBT requests not receiving responses and action on here, across various departments? I'm wondering when a new mural representing the queer community will go up to replace the one with references (pride and trans flags) that was painted over downtown. It's great that two BLM ones are going up, but erasing one of the only visible City-sponsored symbols of LGBT acceptance in a world that is increasingly hostile toward it is not ok. Queer issues are not some flavor of the day no longer needing attention. Queer rights are under attack and I'd like the City to actually take a stand and show some allyship.
Power went out again in Park Ridge East. Power should not go out this often. I know not directly under City control but City officials should be advocating for consistent stable power as a minimum for City infrastructure. I've never lived somewhere where it goes out as often and as for long as here. Can someone at the City please prod Duke to provide more reliable power? If there is anything we can do let us know but we need our elected officials to ring in.
Your udo housing survey isn't letting people submit. Main complaint I had is the political cow towing to where students should be. Main one was student housing should be by campus. Don't pretend east of college mall is next to campus or some of the other highlighted areas. Campus isn't in the rural country anymore. It's the middle of town. The immediate surroundings should be full of students for the benefit of all. Just because rich single family homes of non students is what is there doesn't mean that should be. That's the absolute worst place to freeze in history for prices to rise and the privileged to claim. We should have nice but dense student oriented housing in the immediacy of all sides of campus, not a mile or longer away. Bad for environment, traffic, equity, and Social cohesion.
