I have been using the Morton Street parking garage since August 2018. Every month I have gone into pay it via debit card and they took it every time. Since September of 2018 the parking garage has been open park pretty much do to renovations on the parking system. Meanwhile I was left paying for a parking pass for a free parking garage. The first few times I went in to pay the parking for the month they would swipe my card and then go into the system and mark me good for the month. The past few months they have just swiped my card and told me I was good. How are they supposed to know who has paid and who hasn’t if they aren’t marking it down. If it’s by card name, that’s not right because I pay for two passes under two different names. It’s a bit silly and something should be done.

I am impressed with the mayors statement. As an 84 year old IU alum I have fond memories of my time in your city. You are on the right path.

Twice, this morning (3/25) and yesterday morning (3/24) there have been TWO workers in the cab of a city pick-up parked in the roundabout in Park Ridge. Yesterday they were waiting to mow and today they were putting yellow tape around the shelter. I appreciate the work, but do you really want two people riding around together in a city vehicle clearly not able to engage in social distancing? Why not have them drive separately? Or work separately? Neither job seemed like it absolutely had to have 2 people. If the city wants citizens to take the rules seriously, we should see city employees doing the same. And your city employees doing this type of work should be valued in the same way as your city employees who are working from home doing "higher level" work. Thank you!

You just don't get it. It's not about having a "better" police nationally credentialed by a profession steeped in oppression. You don't get praise for being the top 5 percent of oppressive militarized domestic forces. Are functions of an armed police force necessary unfortunately in present day United States, yes. But should they be LEADING public safety? Absolutely not. Change starts at the top and a public safety chief, perhaps of a law background or social work or public health, not police, needs to be in charge. Social workers and resource officers are seen as LESS THAN by police, as an ACCESSORY to a primary police force. That needs flipped. We need management, particularly a chief, as a social worker for instance. Social workers know when to call on police. Police can be an ACCESSORY to social work. That's the change that is needed. Policing must become the SECONDARY profession and presence when it comes to making sure we are a safe community. Social work and related can be 24 hours just the same as police; ask a foster care case manager. This is solvable! Change the system. The expertise in the community is there.

Hi there! I'm a local resident and wanted to ask and was curious about the Bloomington Flag. I saw on Portland Vexiology Association that you were at the idea stage but I have not heard about anything recently and wanted to know if you would update the flag or at least upload the current design already flown as all I can find is pictures of it waving. As I do believe Bloomington is a great place and I think the flag should represent it.

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.
