Person living in RV. Junk everywhere. Vehicles parked in yard
Call received to HAND from adjacent property owner. There is also a uReport under address 812 W 3rd that is duplicative. People are living year-round in an RV parked on an unimproved surface at 220 S. Maple Street. They have been there for about 18 months. I previously reported them to H.AN.D. and the city's legal department. There are also 3-5 other cars parked in the small property lot at all times. The man is apparently fixing cars for others. Various articles and garbage bags are often strewn about. Their has been many domestic violence and nuisance reports to the police and fire department during this time.
Is it possible for someone to check out this property for animal abuse? I just walked by today (via the alley) and they seem to have a lot of growlings dogs in cages that were covered with blankets.
Burning "tongue and groove from the 40s or 30s or 20s and blue spruce--green green wood" in the wood stove. Caller believes it is toxic and that resident is polluting neighborhood. She would not leave name or phone number so I couldn't tell her we don't enforce the clean air act.

I found 3 syringes in my back yard on Saturday morning. I did notify police dispatch, but wanted to also inform the city. We also had someone walk by the side of our house yesterday evening and got very alarmed when they saw us. Said they were cutting through to catch a ride. We live on a corner and there is no way it would have saved time. I am concerned safety wise, especially for my wife. I feel less sage then I did when I moved back to Bloomington 8 years ago.
City of Bloomington (Historic Preservation Commission?) My wife and I recently purchased and moved in to 348 S Morton St, which is on the Indiana Historical Registry. Earlier this month, using uReport Case 181400, we requested Parks & Rec to help with some heavy brush between S Morton St and the B-Line (they were very responsive -- nice job Paula and Team! :-)). Reviewing the work after clearing was done, walking along the B-Line trail, just below 348 S Morton St, I noticed some block/stone work that might be quite old (pic attached). It appears the block/stone work is there to shore up the embankment for a considerable stretch of S. Morton St. Now that it's visible, it appears that this block/stone work is in a state of disrepair :-( A couple of thoughts: • Is it possible this could be looked at to see if this block/stone work has any historical significance • There could be some concern that this block/stone work may not have the original integrity it was intended to have regarding shoring up the embankment along a stretch of 348 S. Morton St.
On the east side of the B-Line Trail, on the embankment along a stretch of about 100 feet is becoming a health hazard due to the following: trash, abandoned vehicle in adjacent parking lot, human waste. All of this is along the South west side of the Monroe Convention center parking lot that is not being cleaned nor policed in any way. We have observed transients defecating and urinating in the bushes between the parking and the B-Line trail. This appears to be a popular spot for transients because the vegetation and low bushes and branches provide cover. Trash is piling up. Transients have been sleeping for multiple nights just off the SW corner of the Convention Center parking lot. The abandoned vehicle is attracting trash and debris inside and out. Please look into why the Convention Center does not make any effort to clean up their SW parking lot where trash in this area is clearly visible on the B-Line trail.
There is a old white Ford truck (I believe it’s from the 70’s) that is broke down and it’s been here for while. Neighbor been working on it off and on which I see that it’s against city ordinance due to it parked on Howe. Just would like it moved. Definitely an eye sore. Would like to city to look in this.
