Street Lights
200-210 East 12th Street
- Case Date:
- 10/17/2017
There needs to be 1 or 2 streetlights put it on east 12th street between Grant street and North Walnut. It is especially dark in between Lincoln and Washington street and at night you cannot see the sidewalk at all. Most people living on E12th street are students, many of whom have night classes ending as late as 9 or 10pm. My roommates and I specifically have classes ending at 8:30 and 9 when the streets are too dark to see anything. With the current atmosphere in Bloomington, many residents of 12th street feel unsafe walking home from class, work, or to their neighbors. Installing A street lamp or two would greatly improve the safety and comfort of people living on E 12th street. The attached photo shows just how dark the sidewalk is with out a flash light at night. No one should have to feel afraid of walking down their own street at 8pm and the addition of street lamps on E12th street can help fix this.

two sections of the sidewalk are sloped together so that water pools immediately after a rain. It is a heavily walked sidewalk and the puddle is definitely an inconvenience. I'm considering work on my driveway; can I/should I have the contractor improve the situation? Do I need city approval?

Blocked Sidewalk
1925-1929 East Southdowns Drive
- Case Date:
- 9/14/2017
1919 Southdowns is the home that has let the vegetation overgrow the public sidewalk, so that we have to walk on his neighbor's lawn : this sidewalk has lots of foot & bicycle traffic from schoolchildren + adult commuters. Bushes need to be cut back very hard -- not just trimmed a little. This is an on-going problem & homeowner does NOT trim. Please help!
Traffic Suggestions
1918 E Ruby LN
- Case Date:
- 2/7/2015
We have cars flying down Ruby Ln heading to High Street. Our house is on the corner of Ruby and S. Covenanter and they fly down Ruby Lane and turn having headed into the ditch. My main concern is that cars fly down Ruby Lane and we have several families with small children. On the lower side of Ruby Lane there is no sidewalk and these cars are flying down the road. Their speed would kill a pedestrian or a child playing if they got hit. It would be nice with a sign or a speed bump to slow some of the traffic flying down E. Ruby Lane. We never see police officers patrol our neighborhood...not even when we file a report that we are out of town and would like beefed up security checks. The same culprits drive exceedingly fast down both E. Ruby Lane and E. Southdowns Drive and never get ticketed for speeding. If you want to get extra income for the city...that would be the way to do it. Set up a police officer and catch all the drivers driving too fast down these streets.

Could someone please look at the broken sidewalk located on the street level at 1955 N. College Ave. The sidewalk was broken in several areas when the retention pond was built between Walnut and College. The sidewalk has been a hazard for years. Thanks.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

- Case Date:
- 8/7/2018
There is a 2' diameter, 6" deep pothole in the entrance to the Aldi parking lot. The pothole is in the right-of-way, just to the street side of the sidewalk area. The pothole has been present since at at least late Spring. The pothole is large enough to cause significant vehicle damage. It should be repaired before more vehicles are damaged.
Drainage or Runoff
1816-2098 South High Street
- Case Date:
- 4/6/2017
When it rains, the run off comes down my driveway off of High street and the parallel sidewalk and runs down my driveway pooling in front of my garage door and in turn enters my house. This will occur during a rainfall of 0.5 inch or more. Would it be possible to look at the drains on High street or add one at the top of the hill to divert water away from my driveway?
