In light of a lot of recent attempted home invasion activity along this block, having street lights in the alley between 10th and Cottage Grove is a necessary safety measure. It is incredibly dark in the alley and a perfect target for home invasions.
The back of our house was broken into a couple of nights ago (all doors locked and while we were all home) and we feel as though if the back alley was more lit up it may have deterred the suspect from approaching our home. There was also a very similar situation of an attempted break in last week two houses down from ours. It is extremely dark in the alley, especially with the wooded area being back there - perfect for people to hide in. We would feel a lot safer if lights could be installed asap. Thank you.
Street lights have been out for more than a week on Walnut from 10th street to the railroad overpass north of 12th.
Snow on sidewalk
Sidewalk repair desperately needed. Water accumulates in a small lake on what once was a sidewalk.
Property owner should not be allowed to continue renting property until the sidewalk has been repaired to allow pedestrian traffic to pass by safely.
Please accept this report regarding the broken/missing curb section located at 500 N Walnut Street, Bloomington, IN. I have attached a picture. This is the third report for this issue. The curb is in front of Lockerbie Court Condominiums Thank you, Mike 812-334-8200 812-679-7756 manager@olympusproperties.com
Last year, the section of the sidewalk at Washington and Cottage Grove was replaced, but the workers left a trench in the road that collects water and breeds mosquitos. I couldn't help but notice when similar work was done this summer on 10th street and a layer of pavement was laid alongside the sidewalk to fill the trench there. Probably just an oversight but it'd be nice to get this job completed.
Pothole at the corner of Cottage Grove and N. Washington St.
Pothole on Walnut St. is very deep and there were no signs. I turned onto Walnut from 11th street and there were no warnings for the pothole. My car bottomed out and cracked the front bumper and broke clips to where it is hanging. I parked to look at the pothole and walked up the street and took pictures, showing that there are no signs, and to show that this pothole is very deep, roughly a 2" drop. This incident occurred on Sunday August 23, 2015.
