What's the deal with the city taking down two trees at this address? You have been working a couple hours on ONE tree since LAST week. You have more guys standing around than working! They show up at 7 AM with three or four vehicles stand around awhile, work for and hour or so then leave! This protracted pace is interfering with other work being done in the neighborhood. A professional service (Fowler) would have had both trees down and cleaned up in ONE DAY! What gives Bloomington? Time to start hiring out this work and end this seemingly wasteful government service? Thanks, Roger

On 1/24/2025 and 9:15 AM on bus #0348, I observed the strong odor of and could see smoke-haze from deisel exhaust backing up into the public bus. I have spoken to Bloomington Transportation dispatch and customer service and was told that, "That is just part of the bus's regenerative re-uptake process." When they refused to take this matter seriously in the past, I contacted the EPA. The EPA shall be contacted again on this issue since neither the city nor bus company will take this matter seriously, which inevitably affects the city's rating with the EPA as a green-friendly city. Sincerely, Timothy MacKenzie

White City pickup w/seal and employee on riding mower with blade tipped up on side were working in the area trimming and cutting bushes late this am. Bushes shouldn't be trimmed this way w/mower because of flying debris. Citizen says they whacked up the pine tree in her yard. Also, they left their debris behind and didn't clean it up. If her tree was posing a problem she would have taken care of it -- it shouldn't have been whacked up like this. Someone should have notified her.

Due to the construction on East 19th street, I have not been able to get any mail for two weeks. This is a serious problem, considering I was also just robbed (as well as multiple other houses on my street) and I have a security system coming in the mail. There is a very obvious way to access N Washington Street that any navigation system reroutes you to, but none of the mail trucks have been going up that way. They could at least receive instructions to walk it up to the correct address from their delivery trucks, it’s a very big problem to not be able to receive mail and I’m a bit frustrated with the whole situation.

On a whim, I decided to watch the 2/25/25 BPW meeting on CATS this morning. I was very disappointed to hear the casualness that the closed sidewalk on Lincoln was handled. Whether it is contiguous or not, it is still one of the only options of refuge for a pedestrian to walk with relative safety. The impression I got from the city staff is that it is expected and welcomed for pedestrians to just use the road. I understand that construction needs to happen, I just hope that in the future pedestrian considerations are treated with more care even if it is a small section! This is a long enough project (June 2027!) that I hope staff can look and see if other options are available.

Another homeless break in. Needles, human shit, garbage, broken windows. I’ve asked for more patrol here repeatedly
