Tree blocking sidewalk
Tree blocking sidewalk
On the southeast corner of Wilson St. & Lincoln St., the curb is partially painted yellow, but the paint does not extend all the way to the corner. Because of this, there is a vehicle that regularly parks right on the corner. This makes it nearly impossible to check for oncoming northbound traffic on Lincoln St. when you are traveling westbound on Wilson St. I would like to request that the city paint the curb yellow all the way to the corner and possibly add appropriate signage. Thank you.
The debris is piled up by the parking pad at the back of the house, accessible off of the gravel alley that crosses Wilson, between Lincoln and Grant
Tree limbs placed near the street
low hanging tree branches and bushes blocking sidewalk. one branch looks dangerous.
A crosswalk with lights was put in on Henderson (near Brenda Lane & Templeton Elem School) some time ago, but the lights on the sign are too subtle for motorists to notice. At least once per week I have to put my arm out into the crosswalk to get a motorists attention to stop. The signs are around 10 feet off the ground--well above the eye level of motorists; and the lights on the vertices of the pentagonal sign are tiny and give off insufficient light. You need lights that are impossible to miss and at eye level. The city has lights just like this on Washington at E Smith Ave (beside the Allison-Jukebox Center). They are at eye level and you can see them from three blocks away.
Large pile of tree limbs and leaves
I put two piles of tree limbs caused by the storm in June 25, 2024.
In front of our home at 1314 S Grant there is a dip in the road that holds water for days and sometimes weeks after a rain. Last summer it served as enough standing water to be a bad mosquito breeding ground... would love for it to be patched such that it doesn't breed them again this year.
I totally appreciate the desire of the city to annex more city to provide city services. I grew up on S Hays Drive and sidewalks would have been great. However, now I live IN the city and I still have no sidewalks. I would LOVE all the streets in Bryan Park Neighborhood to have sidewalks. The way they were done for the newer S Dunn street houses is great with the recessed street parking. Why can't one of Bloomington's oldest neighborhoods have decent sidewalks?
