Line of Sight
401 S Woodlawn AVE
- Case Date:
- 6/21/2018
Pulling out of this alley either direction onto Woodlawn is a hazard, especially for pedestrians and bicyclists. To the right (on Subway/apartment bldg. side) is shrubbery that completely blocks the view of the sidewalk and street. Approaching it from the alley, we can't see if any vehicles or pedestrians are approaching from the north, traveling south. To the left of the alley is a rental house that has a shrub or tree or some other type of greenery that hangs far enough forward that we can't see what's approaching from the south, traveling north. We must ease our vehicles out into the street in order to see what's coming on Woodlawn in either direction. If we're turning right (to head north) when we ease out into the street for visibility, when we see that it's clear to turn onto Woodlawn it forces the front half of the vehicle to swing into the southbound lane. The shrub to the right of the alley (Subway building) needs to be trimmed drastically or removed altogether for safety's sake since the view of pedestrians and vehicle/bicycle traffic is completely blocked. And the tree/bush on the other side of the rental house to the left needs to be trimmed back enough for visibility. This alley is used daily by many. It contains IU parking spaces and parking for residential rental property, and U.S. Mail vehicles travel it daily for delivery. A colleague reported this to the city last year and nothing came of it.

Excessive Growth

- Case Date:
- 4/24/2018
The yew bushes on the north side of the house on Falcon Drive/Gordon Pike not only are blocking half the sidewalk, but also are blocking the line of site when traveling north on Falcon Drive and approaching Gordon Pike. You cannot see vehicles approaching the intersection that are coming from Wickens St.
Potholes, Other Street Repair
3857 S Mill Stone WAY
- Case Date:
- 2/6/2018
Pot hole filling debris all over the road!
Two nights ago we believe that a snow plow inadvertently dug up and distributed debris from a pot hole that was coming undone. Black sticky stuff has been spread up the road and on our driveway (only a little on our driveway). The debris is a a hazard, and of course, the pot hole is too. We hope that the street can be cleaned up sooner rather than later please.
Excessive Growth
3853 S Mill Stone WAY
- Case Date:

Address is 3860 S Mill Stone Way. Tree in parkway (between street and sidewalk) is overgrown. Cannot walk through sidewalk due to tree--afraid kids are going to get struck in the eye with a branch.
Street Snow Removal
3817 S Mill Stone CT
- Case Date:
- 1/6/2015
I appreciate the snow removal services provided by the City. After today's snow, I noticed that the lower part of our street was clear but the cul-de-sac was not. This is the first time this has occurred. As the snow season begins I thought I would check in to make sure that it is planned that the cul-de-sac will normally receive the same services as the rest of the street. Thank you.

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.
Sidewalk Snow Removal
3737 S Bainbridge DR
- Case Date:
- 1/17/2018
The walk at 3737 S Bainbridge Drive, as is the case every snowfall, has not been cleared from either last Friday's or Monday's snows. It's particularly an issue since the sidewalk on the other side of the street ends before Elliston.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
365 E Winslow RD
- Case Date:
- 2/25/2015
I am writing this about the sidewalk area in front of the White House Flower Shop located off of E Winslow Rd. I am a mother with a toddler child and no vehicle so it is necessary for me to use the sidewalks as my child rides in a stroller. I live in Winslow Ridge Townhomes and have to walk to or from there to Henderson St to be able to catch Bloomington Transit. There has been several instances lately that traveling on the sidewalk is nearly impossible with all the snow on the sidewalk. I can appreciate that Henderson Court Apt and Winslow Ridge Townhomes have been able to keep the remaining snow to a minimum, but outside of the White House Flower Shop is always a mess. This morning as I left my home with my child I was forced to pull my stroller backwards through the snow because pushing it led nowhere. On my return home at around 5p.m., after picking up some groceries, I was not able to get through the snow which forced me to have to walk in the street with my toddler in his stroller.
