This is my second official noise complaint against Juannita's Mexican Restaurant, located at 620 W. Kirkwood Ave. Bloomington, IN 47404. The restaurant staff uses outdoor speakers to play music that can be heard outside property lines--I live across the street and can hear this music in my living room and bedroom, at times clearly enough for it to disrupt my sleep. I have complained directly to Juannita's management by phone, email, and in person on several occasions, to no lasting avail. Last May, I submitted a uReport regarding this issue and received a prompt and professional response from Jason Carnes, the Assistant Director of Small Business Relations. Mr. Carnes reached out to the Juannita's manager with a warning about the City’s noise ordinance, which seemed to be effective for a time. However, the music has recently become a problem again. I am a graduate student at IU, and dreading the prospect of facing another school year of being unable to concentrate or relax in my living space. Please let me know what further steps I can take to hold my neighbors accountable for this noise violation. Thank you, Kaitlin Mackenzie

I live across the street from Juannita's Mexican Restaurant, located at 620 W. Kirkwood Avenue. It is a residential neighborhood with several small businesses in the area. Since Juannita's opened in August 2013, they have routed music through an exterior speaker at a significant volume. I am able to hear this music clearly in my living room and bedroom, making it difficult for me to concentrate, relax, or at times even to sleep. I have called the restaurant staff on multiple occasions asking them to keep the music down. I have sent them a written request to the same effect. I have called the police on three occasions. I've seen no long term effect. It seems that the exterior speaker is unnecessary and in violation of Bloomington's noise ordinance, given its location in a mostly residential area. I need to be able to relax and concentrate in my own home, but at this time nothing I've done has had a lasting effect. Please let me know if there are any steps I can take through the city to ensure that my right to quiet enjoyment is respected from this point on.

On two occasions, I have shopped at Sahara Mart when no heat was in use. The first experience was at the 2611 E. 3rd Street location, and the other was the 106 E. 2nd Street location. The second time the workers were wearing coats, hats and gloves while working the cash register. When I asked "Did the heat go out on you?", the employee said that they "Do not have heat." After the words escaped his mouth he acted as if he didn't want to talk about it any further. I wasn't sure where to report this, so thank you for the opportunity to let the city know.

Good Morning, I work for Interstate Parking Company and we specialize in managing and leasing lots for different parking locations involving monthly, daily and event parking. We are wondering if you had an Approved Vendor’s list or if there is a place to sign up to get up to date RFP’s for City of Bloomington, IN. Or if you suggest checking back on the City's website is the best way to look for new bids. Any information in order to proceed with this process would be wonderful. Thank you Danielle

I am manager at TRACKS. We run a IU apparel and record store at 415 E. Kirkwood Ave. Every day between 1 and 6 homeless people gather and sit on the limestone planter outside our store. It is having a negative impact on our business and I would like to know if there is any recourse to get them to move on. What are the rules on who can sit on the planter for how long?
