4 bird scooters have been on our sidewalk and in our yard since I woke up this morning. Currently they are in the gutter: 701 S Highland. There are also scooters on the sidewalk, standing as well as fallen, along Ballantine, near 2nd (we saw about 3 locations right around there on our walk home). Thank you!

There are 4 scooters outside my house. Measuring from the point farthest inward on the sidewalk, they leave 31" of room between them and the curb; less near the ramp to the street. They were right along our yard.
Last night I sent a note about the 4 from the previous day; it was sent at about 5 and was going to be looked in to that day. At 9 when I went to bed, they were still there.

On High Street this morning, near the intersection with Atwater.
A handicapped person in a motorized scooter could not pass by. Shame on the person who placed the scooters like this.

We have called Bird Scooters twice, and asked them to have their "wranglers" not leave 3-4 scooters in front of our house every day. They always apologize, say this will be resolved - and nothing changes. We would like to know what, if anything, we can do about this. Are home owners really just stuck putting up with this? We live in a historic home, and can't paint our front porch without getting permission, yet someone can line up four scooters along our wrought-iron fence without a care. What recourse do we have that the city will support?

Scooters are the latest scourge on Bloomington and it seems that our city officials refuse to directly address the issue. The unenforceable regulations that tie them to bicycles is ridiculous. I walk downtown routinely and each time I have gone downtown I have experiences a scooter whizzing by me on the sidewalk in the "dismount" zone. Motorized vehicles should not be on sidewalks, period. They also continue to litter the downtown and neighborhoods. They lay everywhere and create an unsightly mess all over town. Bloomington is quickly becoming a less desirable city in which to live because of our mayor's and city council's inability to deal with this latest invasion.

701 S Highland--there are 8 scooters here today; none have been taken. They are taking up parking spaces in the street and are an eyesore. If I cannot park my car in front of my own house without buying a permit, are these really allowed to do so? I would like them taken out of the neighborhood--they've been festering for the last week or so, and we are not a scooter-riding neighborhood.
