I was burning leaves today, unaware of the city policy. The fire department came to my house, kindly asked me to extinguish the fire, and informed me about our policy. Even though I had done wrong, they were kind and helpful, which made it a pleasant learning experience for me. I love that in a town this size, people are so friendly and positive. Thank you city of Bloomington.
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.

Hi Team, My name is Jane and I was researching prevention of house fires after having one in my home. I am emailing you because I came across your website at: http://www.bloomington.in.gov/documents/viewDocument.php?document_id=2212 Firstly, thank you, I found your website very useful. I have also written a page that may be worth adding to your site. It's a guide I decided to write about the prevention of fires with a fun section for kids too. I have posted it at: http://householdquotes.co.uk/keep-safe-from-fire/ I would love to know what you think. Kind Regards, Jane
We are smelling wood burning smoke almost every evening and night, sometimes during day time too. The smell is very strong that we have to close our windows until midnight and many times pass midnight. Despite many nightime investigation walks, we couldn't locate the source of the smell. It maybe coming from different houses. During a pandemic that targets respiration system, burning wood for recreational purposes is a hard to understand human behaviour. I suppose there is nothing to do, from a legal perspective, to stop this unreasonable action. But I wonder if an announcement by the City to invite the citizens to behave responsibly would be effective. Thank you for considering.
There has been a smoke alarm going off in a neighboring house since 12:30 Wednesday night. I think it is in her house on the north side of the street of Hunter between Jordan and Highland.
Fire hydrant is shooting water at vernal pike and Thomas rd.
Is this fire hydrant broken? Would it work if there were a fire?
There was a controlled burning of a house that had led paint on it on the corner of Hillside and High St. Found led-based paint on both mine and my in-laws' yard. Fire chief did not seem to care about properly removing the toxic paint.
During my drive home today from work, I noticed a truck at a high rate of speed. The city of Bloomington Fire Department I was doing at least double the speed limit. Every single after each light the high rate of speed was continued. Not a very good example to be setting. And the speed limit is 35 this guy was well over. License plate 55180. This was in Indianapolis on Brookville Road. Just north of where this picture was taken a child was killed in an intersection by speeding car. We need a better example driving our fire department and police vehicles.
