Someone has dumped an old mattress on the sidewalk/street. This is just the latest event in the severe downgrading of the neighborhood to occur since the city has allowed apartment buildings to be constructed in small residential neighborhoods. I am hoping Bloomington Sanitation can remove this trash.

Trash can bags left on sidewalk.
Residents of 712 W 6th Street have left a sofa, a mattress, and miscellaneous items street side, with sheets of paper indicating that items are "free". They have been outside for over a week, sometimes block the sidewalk, and are accumulating mold and filth. Furthermore, paper stating that the items are free are NOT attached, and essentially litter the sidewalk. The items need to be disposed of properly, and it is my inclination that leaving them for "free" is an attempt around purchasing trash stickers.

Our sanitation guys went to this stop this morning and found that there have been people digging all through this trash or so we suspect and there is trash all over their yard. It is the length of one of our trucks. We picked up what was on the sidewalk but left the rest.
Armchair left on the sidewalk, soaked in rain for last several days so I don't think anyone wants it.
