Uneven sidewalk in two places on this block (south side)
The sidewalk on both side of our driveway have become a major trip hazard with about a 5 or 6 inch drop. We have small children that have tripped and fallen due to the root system of the trees that have caused the sidewalk to raise and crack. Additionally, small animals seem to make their way under the sidewalk.
We purchased this property in 2007. In 2002 this property had been subdivided and there was a bond for required sidewalks on the property. On July 25, 2012, we turned over the funds from the bond to the City of Bloomington in the amount of $10,690. Since that time, there have been no sidewalks installed. IF sidewalks are REQUIRED when a property is subdivided, what is a REASONABLE amount of time to wait for installation? In the meantime the City just sits on that money? I would appreciate some answers and insight to these REQUIRED sidewalks. Thank you.
I'm an IU Bloomington student who walks to the stadium everyday to take the IU buses to class. There are no sidewalks on my walk from Brownstone Terrace to the stadium which forces me to walk on the side of the road, where student drivers who don't pay attention swerve around me at the last second. Additionally when the weather is bad, I'm even forced to walk in the road, putting myself at risk to get hit by a car. I'm also proposing more off campus lighting & would love to meet with someone about these issues to come up with an effective plan. It's unsafe walking home from a late night class or to an early morning class & not being able to see your surroundings. Some of the city lights don't even work. If more light poles were installed, it would reduce the off campus crime rate. The city of Bloomington, not IU, is reponsible to address these issues because it's there property.
I am the homeowner at 3817 S Woods Edge Bend. Can the city repair my sidewalk? My insurance company is saying this is necessary, and I don't know how to get this done.
