Hello- I was wondering if it's possible for the City to replant some of the trees along the bypass by Matlock Heights (between Dunn and Walnut). I live in the neighborhood on Vernon, and since the bypass was expanded we can now see a lot of traffic from our back deck, and the noise has increased significantly. Are there any plans to replace some of the trees that were removed in the process? I actually think our property values have gone down in the neighborhood because of it. Please let me know if there is anyone I can talk to or anything I can do?? Thank you!

Hello, I'm writing on behalf of my nephew Robert who idolize police officers. He is special needs young man who has overcome dozens of surgeries and brain aneurysms. Right now he is in a police explorer program, he completely loves the program. Besides the program he gathers a tremendous amount of joy from collecting business cards from police officers. His collection has grown to 2000 business cards along with trading cards and badges. He cherishes his collection as if they are rare jewels. I want to help his collection grow. I appreciate any help with this. Thank you for your time, Rebecca Plank 2818 Belknap Way San Diego, CA 92106 (408)391-5027

Hi, I would like to request that a "no outlet" and/or "children at play" sign be placed in our neighborhood. We live on Swayze Ct in Bloomington and there is a lot of traffic in our cul-da-sac because people are unaware that the street does not go through. With any cul-da-sac we have a lot of children playing here and their safety is extremely important. The sign would be placed on the corner of Flemming and Rathmore. Please let me know if this possible.

To whom it may concern, I am not sure who I should address my question to, so please forward this question to the correct person. I am getting married on May 3, 2014. At the end of our ceremony, we would like to go outside and release paper lanterns to float off into the sky. It dawned on me that I should ensure this idea is permissible within city limits. Please let me know ASAP. Thank you.

I wanted to pay my compliments to Mike Stinson, a supervisor in Street Utilities. I had asked Mike about a concern I had with a location in the city, and Mike took the time out of his day to personally come out and thoroughly inspect the site, both in his vehicle and on foot. Beyond this, he called me back and patiently and thoroughly explained the processes and specific codes involving my concern, and then went on to tell me how he could help. It was finished in less than 24 hours. Mike went far above and beyond the requirements of his job to help me out as a concerned citizen, and I want to make sure he is properly thanked and recognized for his work with the City. He makes me proud to be a Bloomington Resident. Again, please let him know what an excellent job he has done in not only helping me individually, but helping us all stay safer. Thanks again for your great work, Mike!

I love the poster of "Charlie doesn't fly through stop signs" that I saw on the bus this morning. Except that the bicyclist isn't wearing a helmet! This is not an example of safe, civil streets!

Hello, I have no report, but rather a question regarding the big black metal fencing that surrounds the 3rd st. and Morton overpass along the Convention Center. Can someone tell me what company this fencing came from, and, did a local business install it? It is really nice, and I would like to use these same businesses, if I could. Thanks!

A tree in the city easement area behind my parents house at 1009 S. Grant fell down and broke their fence and is now in their yard. I have been unable to find the rules applying to this sort of issue and would greatly appreciate any help for them. Thank you
