Hello! Addresses entered into myBloomington are not coming up with historic designation information. It was difficult for me to find the information about my address, and the only reason I knew to dig was because I happen to have increased knowledge about the HPC and how some of that works. If I didn't know those things, I would never know my house was on the survey. When I finally did find the survey, it's difficult to look through because it's organized by neighborhood, then "scattered sites," not by street address (and it's just a pdf of a list). Luckily I know how to search and could find my address, but again, that's special knowledge that I don't think every user should be expected to have. Please fix this! Thanks!

Some feedback for your web team: I find the city website generally to be clear, helpful, and easy to use. However, the lack of topic-specific contact information for city staff is frustrating. I don't like talking on the phone. I'd rather have things in writing. I would just like to know whom to email. But I have to guess. This--combined with weird, low-information job titles ("Rental Specialist 1," "Rental Specialist 2," "Program Manager"--those have no meaning to me as the customer of city services!) makes it frustrating to know whom to contact. Why not just make a directory that tells what important topics are in people's individual responsibilities and areas of expertise?

the new utilities payment website is not user friendly. I had to create a new log-in ID and pass word but how can I log-off? Also, I don't want to print the confirmation pop-up window and it seems there's no way to close it unless you just close the website. In this case, I can't tell if my account was logged off securely.

before the site redesign, i remember it being easier to tell the city council meetings from the committee of the whole meetings. now both in the calendar and in the agendas page, they are both just "Common Council Meeting." also, the calendar entry for upcoming meetings should have a link to the agenda/packet, since the upcoming calendar days are prominently displayed. also, maybe the agenda/meetings page should be sorted by descending date, and not have a bunch of blank entries for meetings without documents yet? basically, in order to see the agenda we shouldn't have to go to a page and then scroll halfway down it to today's date. and we certainly shouldn't have to download the whole agenda to see if it's a committee of the whole meeting. anyways, thanks!

The household registration page at https://webtrac.bloomington.in.gov/wbwsc/webtrac.wsc/household.html?option=add requires that a gender be selected, but only allows two genders. Please read https://uxdesign.cc/designing-forms-for-gender-diversity-and-inclusion-d8194cf1f51 on designing this kind of field better and more inclusively

The parking in this town needs to be fixed. You should be ashamed of yourselves wanting to take money from college students having to park illegally for short periods of times due to the lack of parking in this town. It is ridiculous and it needs to be fixed.

Hello, I would like to inquire about the domain name blue ridge.bloomington.in.us as I believe that the city owns this and currently redirects this to Lingo Technology where we host our Blue Ridge web site. We have recently created a new Google Sites web page and would now like to change the CName to this new web site at https://sites.google.com/view/brnabloomington/home If you can assist with this that would be great, I can be reached at 4088399811 to discuss further, Thanks Wes Scholl Blue Ridge Neighborhood Association Vice President
