CFC vehicle is blocking the entire sidewalk and cannot safely cross kirkwood or to College avenue. No signs posted saying side walk was closed or anything. Just unacceptable as I had to walk into traffic to cross.
We have substantial concerns with potential Greenway roadblocks City Council we heard were proposing to how it may impact Park Ridge East and our Greenway? We were told after years of advocacy that we were finally getting calming to East Morningside (this being typed as a racer just roared their engine on that road). We want to make sure planning is still moving forward in 2023 for the Greenway improvements, with improvement construction to follow in early 2024?
Is the city going to replace the tree they cut down in front of city hall? Really surprised planting season has come and gone without replacement of the tree.
Hope our mayor can help! Cannot get records at county health department as it is not open? Came by and it is closed without prior public notice. All residents in the county pay taxes for this. We’ve seen what looks like a large layoff going on since last director (Penny) has left. What is going on?
Garbage truck #960 has a headlight out.
Vehicle #876 has a passenger brake light out.
Hello - This year I have twice alerted the City to issues with individuals who were still actively receiving uReport cases in the uReport system and listed on the City directory as employees despite having terminated their employment with the City. I would suggest the City look into how it deals with former employee accounts and emails in City systems as it is wild to be that the City does not seem to have controls in place for it. See Case # 181859 and Case # 180664 for the two examples of the City allowing uReports to go sit in inboxes of ex-employees and go unresolved for the concerned citizens of Bloomington reporting issues to the City government. Time to audit the systems and clean this up! Good luck.
Street racer just went by on E Morningside Dr. We have significant concerns as a neighborhood with the Mayor not running again on what is going to happen with our Greenway improvements. Please make sure these happen, sooner than the better. You all are appreciated!
There is a person living in their car on 300 w kirkwood by the frame store. They have been there for about 2-3 weeks now. Vehicle is a silver Volkswagen sedan. Can the city have this person move along or tow the vehicle? Definitely an eye sore out of my apartment.
Followup to case# 181838 (I believe there is a problem with distracted driving in Bloomington despite there being a state law about hands-free driving for a few years now. Please inform me what BPD is doing to directly address this danger to the public safety of this city. Thank you. Marnina Patrick) I took Captain Pedigo up on the suggestion to contact the ISP and am now sharing the replies I go: "Thank you for taking the time to send us a note of concern for drivers utilizing celllular devices while driving. We have listed the statue below for your review and will forward you concern to the commander of the bloomington district. If you see a violation, please don’t hesitate to report the driver to your local police/sheriff's office or the closest ISP post." "The bloomington police department is still responsible for traffic infractions even if they have staff shortages. Police departments throughout the nation are experiencing staffing shortages however still continue to serve the public."
