The owner has covered the entire yard and tree plot with gravel. Subsequently, possibly in response to an inquiry by the City, they have planted some shrubs. The gravel is still covering the entire property, but it is now just dotted with shrubs. Please get them to remove the gravel.
Tenants are parking in the alley that runs behind 1000 and 1002 East Atwater. This makes it difficult for their trash removal truck to get in the alley. As a result trash cans are overflowing and trash is now in the street. In the past vehicles that were parked in the alley were ticketed. Is this no longer happening?

Greetings. In my experience, as well as observations, it does not appear that there is much, if any, enforcement of the Hands-Free Driving state law that went into effect in 2019 in the City of Bloomington. There also doesn't seem to be much accountability to that law as in my experience, the person who rear-ended me told the BPD officer she hit me because she was looking at her phone, but following too close was on the citation and not distracted driving. Why is that? I was told that he didn't want to put more than one reason down. Well, why not distracted driving as that is what she admitted to? Also, there doesn't seem to be any sort of a public safety education campaign in any way... I could imagine that the social media accounts would be a great place for a weekly, bi-weekly, or even monthly Public Safety Announcement (PSA) for some friendly reinforcement, reminders, remedial lessons, etc. about the laws that provide structure around driving a couple ton heavy potentially lethal machine around these safe and civil streets. I think Bloomington motorists need a few reminders on some general laws about operating a motor vehicle, especially the hands-free driving state law. Can someone please speak a bit to this concern of mine? Much obliged for your time.
Lots of trash at the street. Trash and recycling can are over flowing at the street and trash bags are on the ground in front of cans
Resident lives at 515 1/2 Fess. States there is a white truck/van that parks in and completely blocks the alley.
AT&T installed an orange fiber pipe in my front yard in 2021. They also left a hole in the ground covered in plywood with a cone on top that says not to touch due to electricity danger. I need to access this part of my yard for tree work. I called AT&T's fiber repair department who said they had no plans to finish the installation. Can you please help me figure out how to get this fixed or removed? I am at 2705 S Forrester St Bloomington IN 47401. Thank you.
