This morning around 8:30 the SW corner of Maxwell Lane and Woodlawn. Four scooters were set up out of the way. The other two blocked the sidewalk. I moved those two in between the other four. I did---so could a "juicer." Thanks.

Hello, I would like to draw your attention to an issue with item 6 of the e-scooter guidelines on the city website; "6. Park the scooter in a bike rack or in another lawful spot on public property that does not block the right-of-way, limit access for individuals with disabilities, risk damaging private or public property, or jeopardize public safety." E-scooters should not be parked “in a bike rack” as they do not require locking and have their own kick-stand support. When e-scooters are parked inside of bike racks they are blocking access to a vital space for cyclists. Parking e-scooters in bike racks causes the same inconvenience to cyclists as parking e-scooters in the middle of a sidewalk causes to pedestrians. Failing to notice this basic issue feels like the city of Bloomington has forgotten or decided to ignore the needs of cyclists. I ask that the wording in the e-scooter guidelines be changed to ensure that bike racks are reserved for bikes and other vehicles that require locking, and proper notice be given to e-scooter users about this change. Thank you.

These Birds and Limes left plenty of sidewalk for pedestrians but the Limes would block someone from being able to get out of the rear seat of that car on to the sidewalk.

Sunday around 1 PM 3 girls on scooters turned from Dunn Street sidewalk on to Kirkwood sidewalk. Ignored being told not to ride on sidewalk. Of course. Please hurry up with those signs and patrolling. Also please---I assume we are supposed to use the map to locate the event for you, but how?
