I just wanted to write a thank you to everyone who responded to my request for help with need to get old utilities pole down in my backyard and repairs to ground cover/shrub, grass. Duke Energy came immediate this Monday to survey situation. AT&T took down the old pole this week, too. Now Duke Energy needs to return to fix grass/ground cover/shrub issue. They said they would and I have a call into them. Many thanks to all for the speedy work.
I have been threatened on Clear Creek trail before. It does not feel safe, especially when alone. I am an advocate for those unhoused but to have a camp with individuals experiencing significant instabilities next to a remote trail with little police presence is unsafe. There are connections between safety and those who are not stably housed, so location matters as to where camping should be allowed in a way that can be monitored better than the current "wild west out-of-sight approach" of the present City Administration. Strangers are more likely to be victims of crimes committed by homeless individuals than rates from housed perpetrators. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7641002/ Beyond the unhoused, in general a greater safety presence on trails would be appreciated. Call boxes for emergencies for instance and other options are fine beyond standard law enforcement. Even just public safety "parks patrol" non-LEO would honestly be even better than LEO.

I want reparation from Moron Biden / Clinton / Obama Voters
Just wondering if there is actually an Erin Hatch that works for the city?? I noticed including my ureports that were assigned to her way over a month ago about city tree trimming has not been addressed. So I'm not sure if she doesn't work for the city and it's not being assigned to no one. Or someone isn't really doing their job. Thanks for your time.
I had previously submitted ureport 180261 complaining about the state of E 14th St. It was closed out with a vague message that it'd be resurfaced "later this month". I realize it is still June and it may still get repaired, but the road has just continued to get worse and worse. The dust is ridiculous. I'm not sure if anyone at the city understands that days matter. Even if it is resurfaced next week, it is still several weeks past due. Has anyone at the city even driven down it??! I also happened to read that the same developer that turned 14th St into a gravel road is now the same developer who has messed up the intersection of 17th and Walnut. I can hardly believe that anyone would allow them to do more work on city roads when they clearly don't care at all about repairing other work they've done.
100 W 6th St, the double yellow lines have been faded causing some drivers thinking it’s a one way street or not being in the correct lane causing some traffic issues. Please address before IU students come back.
The federalist paperNews article reads Texas Gov. Greg Abbott Orders National Guard, Police to 'Return' Illegal Aliens To The Border . I'd like to see the city and the contempt for the United States after all the statements made in the rededication of the Monuments and or Memorials that was defaced a number of times by those whom placate a surrender to invasion ie forms of constructive reason. I'd like to see my city or county reps repeal the Boy cott notice of May 2010 v/s acting like communist cowards all to willing to help destroy America. My salute to the great state of Texas.

News just broke about the redevelopment of yet another downtown property, this time on Kirkwood. Proposals for changing the cultural feel, look, and integrity of our beloved town should require better public notice of being on an agenda for vote. This occurs not just for the planning commission, but other city meetings as well. Turning our town into a cityscape of 3+ stories everywhere is not the “Bloomington feel” that is supposed to be at the heart of every project, and it is not what alumni and townies for decades have fallen in love with and raised their families here for. Do better with actually listening to residents’ thoughts as a whole for the town, not just the elite your admin has chosen to sit on a council/commission (especially those made up of “representatives” who live in $500k+ properties and do not have a pulse for the majority of permanent residents that live and work in this town). When one thinks of Bloomington, the residents can assure you it is not being surrounded by brick, large buildings, and lack of flora when walking or driving through any part of town. However, this is what this administration is turning Bloomington into - large, brick (purdue-eque), concrete and blacktop filled spaces with a lack of culture and quirky original Bloomington feel. A shame that I would need to relocate from my hometown and family to better embody this original appeal of Bloomington.
