Situation in the McDoel neighborhood. This area is subject to ongoing problems with the homeless population leaving much trash, stealing from our yards, and leaving used needles about. If this was going on in more affluent areas like Sherwood Oaks there would be something done about it but the city has simply not put enough effort into keeping our area safe for the poulation who lives here. The various shelters cannot do much to influence the behavior of their clients. Another issue is that the shelters and especially Shalom Center encourages people to come to Bloomington rather than encouraging other towns to take care of their homeless. We are full of these people and many of us are fed up with their behavior and the numbers of them. McDoel has been an upcoming area with a mix of working class and professionals. Colder weather has subdues the homeless activities but with warmer weather coming many of us feel Switchyard park will again have numerous issues with panhandling and trash and encampments with druggies. There are several encampments in the area populated mostly be drug users. Anything they drag in does not leave and we have some areas of way too much trash. How about some enforcement ?

Today I was almost killed by a motorist on the 7th St. bike trail. There needs to be signage for the motorists. Too many out of town drivers on a regular basis to think it can be a learned infrastructure!

Why in the actual fuck would you hold a god damn street fair when there is limited parking as it is and taking away even more parking? Y'all are fucking idiots and deserve to be shot, hung, tarred and feathered, horsewhipped, and put down!

This is just a thank you to the kind police officer who visited me this morning. I just wanted someone in command to know that we appreciate what they are doing for us.

Saw a few reports on here were closed with very much the same answers but other concerns in the reports were ignored. We moved here years ago to retire and had worked in other governments and they all worked the same hours. Why do the county and city in this geographical area not work the same hours? It is very confusing because us citizens do not always know the correct place for help and need one or the other. Contrary to the response on here, we see the job postings in the paper, and the county has higher wages now by far with less education requirements, they work less hours as a whole, and they are closed for more holidays. I am unclear as to why the response given on this system is dismissive when there’s clearly a need for employees to be retained because citizens’ needs are not being met? Again it seems there have been many concerned with the fact that -not just you but many employers in the city are not modernizing and helping retain and attract employees in a healthy way for the long-term. If we were still in the government system working, a random additional benefit would not retain me versus better pay and less work hours in a week. Just another thought from involved citizens. Thanks for hearing our concerns.

Third report: Dead crab apple tree in front of 715 West 13th St. I reported this last year, no response. I reported it earlier this spring and was informed that crab apples are low on your priority list. While I of course understand that emergencies come first, I don't quite believe that every day there are trees down blocking the roads. This is on a public street, with some involvement in wires, and it is a city responsibility. I would at least like to hear that it is on your list. Thank you.

City council members get paid thousands to make decisions about the quality of life for the citizens of Bloomington and the employees who work for them. However, they do not consistently show up to do the work. This is unacceptable as all employees are required to show up to work or are fired, and given the current climate and time of year - the council is not raising pay consistent with inflation (only 5%?) but is hearing budgets to use funds in other ways? Very confused about the hypocriticism. You all should be keeping up with the adjacent county meetings also as they stated on record they expected to keep with inflation at 9.5%…. Yet funnily enough all the fees in town should be raised and yet both governments aren’t putting that money back into the pockets of the local economy by sticking at a much lower rate. If we are gonna keep paying council to not show up for work and just assert their opinions and vote for personal gain, then at least be fair and use funds for all employees.

I live in Maple Heights and due to the taste and smell of the water I have had to buy bottled water especially for my dogs who refuse to drink it. Also, my clothes were smelling bad as I don't use scented detergent or dryer sheets, so I have had to take all my clothes to dry cleaning. Where should I send the bill? I am not getting the product I pay you for!

Suggestion for system after being told to report stuff to state system. Their info states the following, “INDOT does not respond to reports containing profanity, obscenity, vulgarity, or defamatory or discriminatory language.“. Perhaps this should be added onto this city system as there seems to be some profanities utilized on here as of late. Thanks for your work!
