On 6-15-23 between the hours of 12:00 to 1:00 pm. Myself and 2 others had just climbed up the stairs after going down to look at the water falls. We heard a loud car enter the parking area and shut off. however, no one got out of the vehicle as if they intended to hike. I was concerned about my own car because it was the only other one there. My friends and I decided to walk back up to the parking lot to make sure my was not the target of being broken in to or the catalytic converter being stolen. As we approached the parking area, we observed the other car had backed into the parking spot next to my car. We could see the driver standing beside they driver's door. We made noise to let the m know we were approaching, the person standing immediately sat back down in their seat. We saw an adult male slumped over in the passenger seat, totally passed out and not moving or awake. The driver and person who had been standing was an adult women, she seemed oblivious and unaware too. The car was and older car, a big vehicle like police use to drive, possibly a Crown Victoria . The back seat was piled high with clothes,, sleeping bags, blankets, etc. Indicating to me homelessness. The car was painted gray with a large area of the front end painted black. The back window on the drivers side had a star in it, brown like a sheriff's star. It was obvious that they were not intending to hike. We intended to continue our hike but decided the situation seemed unsafe and sketchy. I would have liked to have gotten a photo of their license plate, but as I said they were backed into the spot. As that is a pretty isolated area without others around, I thought I should at least list my concern. It is my hope that the area is patrolled throughout the day. The Leonard Springs Nature Preserve is a beautiful area that those of us who appreciate nature and the beauty of this area should be able to access without risk or fear of something happening to our vehicles or our person. My friends and I are experienced hikers and do so on a regular basis. Unfortunately, this is the first time we have felt such an uncomfortable and sketchy situation. I am certain I would recognize that vehicle again My phone Number is 824-6527 if you need to call me. I felt it was important to list my concern.

There is a tree branch laying on the fence at our property located at 1003 Keri Marie Lane in Bloomington, IN and the tree branch has fallen from a tree that seems to be on the city easement property behind our fence. We would like to request that the city send someone out to investigate and remove the branch from our fence. Thank you!

My Father, Mother and two sisters are buried at Rosehill Cemetery. I went to visit their grave last week. The condition around the grave and the grave stone was terrible. It included very spotty grass and a hole that appeared to be a cave in. The headstones also had lichen growing on them. How do I have someone properly maintain the headstones and my family plot?

There’s a map that says this tree is on city property. I submitted a request to Duke to remove limbs over the power line to the street light. They cut off a couple of small branches but left branches that pull on the wire when it’s windy. The tree leans over the wire. The part of the tree over the wire should be taken down. It’s a mulberry.

Maybe I posted it in the wrong issue line, sending again, as Windlow woods are maintained by the city- previous ticket #: 182007 SERVICE DESCRIPTION After the last storm yesterday, dead trees in Winslow woods fell down, one towards my house, and some within the forest. I was told the woods are maintained by the City of Bloomington. Would you survey the dead trees to avoid possible damage to my property from Winslow woods forrest, and remove the fallen down ones. Also have a few fall down by my neighbors. Worried next storm will bring dead trees fall on my house. Thank you

Hello, There is a dead tree in the median located at the Winston Street entrance to Hyde Park. The tree recently lost a dead limb and it blocked the intersection. My neighbor and I cleaned it up but there will be more dead branches to come. The tree is next to the street light that was recently repaired (thank you!). Can the city cut this tree down? Also, the sweet gum trees in front of the houses on the north side of Winston in the 2800 block have many limbs that overhang the street and often make contact with delivery trucks. Can those be trimmed as well? Thank you!

Our side yard is a conservancy easement outside of the fence line. It seems to be dying based on grape vines taking over. We were told we are not allowed to cut down trees in this area, is this something the city would help with and if there are dead trees, would they be replaced?
