Unattended smoldering cooking fire, presumably the morning after.
Unattended smoldering cooking fire, presumably the morning after.
There is a large/full/mature mulberry tree hanging over power lines, utility lines, cable and telephone wires. The tree is specifically at the edge of the alley entering Jackson St from the property address listed above. In storms the branches bounce off the power lines and causes a lot of sparks. Cars are parked very close to this and concern is of fire or tearing down the power lines if a branch were to fall. Recommending a thorough cut back of large branches back to mid alley. Duke came out to trim some small branches, but didn't resolve the problem.
Strong smell of diesel fuel in downtown Bloomington. Smell was most pungent South of 4th Street and Walnut.
POWER LINES HERE ARE SHORTED AND **THROWING SPARKS**. We have reported this to Duke and they have chosen to ignore it instead of restoring AC to Vinergar Hill houses.
These residents have trash scattered everywhere on the property and they are burning all there trash in the back of the house. They are burning plastic containers because they produce methamphetamine and the entire neighborhood becomes infumed with toxic air. Can someone please I beg you, have the owner of this property make the tenants clean this mess up and stop burning trash in the back. We are becoming beyond frustrated with nobody from the city enforcing these people to stop these violations. Anything you can do we would greatly appreciate.
There is a power line in the middle of maxwell and thorton
My address is technically 1529 W. 8th. We recently purchased our home and just got all moved in. In between my house and our neighbors, there is a ton of overgrowth over power lines connected to our homes. We really need someone to come out and clear the area before it becomes a problem. There is also a very large and what seems like a very dead tree on our neighbors property that is over some power lines as well.
Strong smell of natural gas.
I saw some neighborhood kids playing on what looked like our neighbors' power or phone box units. The kids were jumping and pushing them and pretending (I think?) to get shocked. One kid looked like he was trying to pull one over. I am concerned that they will get hurt or that a fire will start due to the damage. When I went to tell them to stop, they had run off.
The company has been relocating people to desks in hallways/walkways. The building seems like too many people and that it’s a risk. Just wanted to report to make sure employees are safe.
