It is pitch black in Whittington Commons. There is no public lighting throughout the entirety of the addition. Neighbors do not turn on exterior porch or yard lanterns. Without public lighting, it is dangerous to be out at night. You cannot see five feet in front of you. Please install lights!

Hello, I'm a second-year tenant of a house on S Woodlawn Ave. The walk home at night is very dangerous because there are no street lights once you get south of Atwater Ave. As a larger man, I luckily do not have to worry as much as about being abducted by any predators. However, I still worry about getting struck by a car because of the lack of visibility on the streets and sidewalks. We have guests that are women that fear coming to our house at night because of how dark the street gets and they could easily be abducted in the dark. My roommates and I often find ourselves having to walk guests to Atwater for them to feel safe. It is a public safety issue and I'm requesting that street lights are installed on Woodlawn Ave for a minimum of 5 blocks south of Atwater. Woodlawn is a highly trafficked area not only by cars, but pedestrians too. I'm a policy analysis major and would love to be involved in any research or implementation needed to solve this issue. Please reach out with any decision made! Thank you.

The drive/alleyway to the left of my residence is unlit and pitch black at night. It is dangerous to walk to and from my car or trash bins at night. I spoke with my landlord and he said that it is city property. I would like some kind of streetlight or floodlight installed.

I would like to suggest new street lights. There is a school cross walk at Templeton School on Henderson Street between Hillside and Grimes. There are families that use this cross walk in the morning prior to sunrise. A street light there would be very helpful. I also believe street lights at all school bus stops would be beneficial to students waiting for the bus in the dark. Thank you.

Request review of this street for implementation of street lights. More and more lots are being sold and erected. We could use lights, it's pitch black out here.
Thank you!

Hello:
I was in communication with Christina Smith last fall regarding a street light that needs to be installed on S. Fess Ave. Preferably 821 S. Fess Ave., as that is the middle of the block. The 800 block of S. Fess is totally pitch black, unless there is a full moon. I'm not sure why this completely dark street, with two homebound senior citizens living on it (my neighbors), hasn't become a priority for a street light. Please consider taking care of this soon. Thank you! Previous correspondence below.

Christina Smith contacted Lucy Fischman
Ms. Fischman,
Thank you for communicating with the Department of Public Works regarding an additional lighting request along S. Fess Avenue. Each year, we install street lights within the public right of way on a petition base and available funding. I have placed your request area on are list for future consideration. At this time, we have quite an extensive list, therefore, it cannot predict when the light will be installed.
Best,
Christina

Hello,
My name is Kendall Burch and I am a student at Indiana University. I live at 1309 N Washington Street Bloomington, IN 47408 in a duplex. The duplex was built this past summer and sits at the end of a dead end, where there is currently no light.
Next to our house is several bushes with a trail leading to a parking lot for an apartment complex across the street. My roommates and I have encountered more than one incident where we have seen individuals hiding in the trail at night because it is so dark. The latest incident happened this past weekend, but by the time the Bloomington Police Department arrived the man fled on foot. As citizens of Bloomington we feel we are in danger, providing a street light would make the area safer for everyone. Please let me know if this is an option as soon as possible
Respectfully,
Kendall Burch

I recently became a member of the city's Twin Lakes Recreational facility. I appreciate the fact that there is a paved path along 2nd street to bike/walk to Twin Lakes. But there is not a single street light along the path from Landmark. The parking at Twin Lakes in inadequate when youth events take place in the evenings, so it would be great if the path was lit/safer to use. Thank You.
