For City Council members to review: Per City when describing work experience, “Generally, internships, seasonal jobs, and temporary part-time (TPT) positions with the City -as well as internships and volunteer work outside the City- are not included”. How is that ethical or correct in any capacity? Paid labor whether seasonal or part time is just that - labor, work, experience. This notion clearly shows bias towards those with the privilege and advantage of not having to work part time to attain degrees, certifications, etc. in order to finally attain a full time role. How is one supposed to gain experience if the means of getting experience - internship, part time, or otherwise- is not counted as such? This seems like a very biased internal policy decision and means of discounting experience for employees accross the board. This should be highlighted and inquired about in the upcoming council meeting, regardless of outcome for the legislation to be read (no one wants to hold back employees even further).

Once again Street Department is repaving roads with barely any milling work done, this time on South Washington. Milling down 1' strips less than .5" at the curb and not milling at all in the middle of the road. The "repaving" here is just piling up over an inch of fresh asphalt on top of un-milled asphalt. This raises the grade of the road, which also means curbs are now effectively lower and storm drains that should be at grade are now sitting in a pit of asphalt.

WRT #205296 - I have reported this in the past. Also, the city knows when students are moving in and out in August. Instead of leaving the heaps of trash by the ignorant or unwilling offenders (not asking for coddling), prepare the team for the excess and be ready with extra pickups, on the spot fines, knocking on doors to hand out the rules for example, to deal with this very predictable and temporary disturbance in the system.

A person has been pooping by the curb in front of the parks building on the corner of Smith and Washington Street. There has been one pile present for a month and more has come in the last few days. I work for The Project School and we use this sidewalk to go to and from the park. It would be helpful if it could be cleaned up as a child might step in it and it is a biohazard.

For Administration Leadership and All Council Members: midwestern citizens including all of Bloomington and Monroe county are paying very close attention to the AI wave and increase in control of resources that put cost burdens on the common rate payer instead of the companies drawing upon those resources the most. Citizens need some public acknowledgement that this is on leaders’ radar and that our leadership will have a voice in this issue as these projects continue to pop up in adjacent locations across the state. Leadership should be putting resources toward advocacy at the state level to get these costs lowered for common citizens and get these tech giants to pay their fair share. When folks can no longer afford power or water we have a major issue. Please don’t turn away from this rising issue. Water is the next big resource crisis and we need to stay ahead of it.
