Hi, I think this house is being used as a storage area for a construction business; it's listed as the address for N V Roofing and Restoration. The yard has contained trash, construction materials, and sometimes furniture for six to eight months. (I complained about trash at the curb a few months ago, and that trash was removed, but more appeared almost immediately. Right now there's trash at the curb, construction materials in the yard, and two mattresses outside.) I don't think anyone is actually living there, although people may stay the night from time to time. I'm concerned about the trash, but also about whether there is a zoning violation. This area appears to be zoned residential single-family, and it looks to me like this type of business use is not allowed. Thanks for any help you can provide. If I need to contact someone else about the apparent zoning violation, please let me know.

Yesterday morning, right after my kids jumped on the bus, a city waste truck came to do pick-up with a confederate flag license in the front dash. Please have it removed. For some, it is a symbol of hate and violence.Thank you

Property at: 1301 South Stull. Over grown. The only time the property got mowed this year was when I did it myself ... once. Owner Steve lives in Basement. Door on North Side if you can find it! Seriously. Rents out the top floor. Considerable garbage on side of house. All summer 3-4 people lived upstairs. While Steve lived down. 4-5 people living in a 3 unrelated situation. Over the past 45 days it has been down to 3 unrelated. But overgrown and trash remain. thank you.

hello, I noticed that the town dropped off garbage and recycling cans this morning. I saw them dropping them off at everyones houses but when I went outside to bring them in I noticed that none were dropped off in front of our house. I was just wondering if there is a way that we can get them still.
Thank you

Failure to pick up Trash.
I am incredibly disappointed in the city's handling of trash today as we switch to the new system of trash pick up. Nowhere in the handouts given to us about the new system did it say that we can not start using the new bins right away but then today as you drive all over Bloomington all you can see is full cans of trash with a "notice" that the trash was not picked up because it should have been set out in the old way with trash tags and such. This is infuriating. Now we all have to keep our festering, rotting garbage for another week because it was NEVER stated that this couldn't be done immediately. Even your own website simply states: "The new modernized system will formally go into operation beginning on October 2, 2017." This message does not at all clearly say that we have to wait until then to use the new bins. If anything it just makes it seem like it may take that long to get everyone bins and set up properly.
Also, and maybe the most maddening part was the fact that when the new recycling bins were used THE RECYCLING WASN'T PICKED UP EITHER. What possible excuse is there for this? We don't even pay for recycling, it's not like the trash where, apparently, if you took it today it was for free. Now we have to wait TWO WEEKS for recycling for literally no reason.
Maybe next time you will have learned how to make things clear so that the city isn't literally overflowing with garbage.
Your very disappointed resident,
Alyssa Ball

I live in a single-family house--807 W 6th and ordered two small trash cans; came home to find four large. Need these removed and the correct trash cans delivered. Also need a way to double-check that I am not being charged for two large trash pickups per week, so will need a method to check this.
