This is the third time we are contacting the city about this problem. We have a culvert that heads west of our house for one block. Our house is on the bottom of the street, so all the debris when flooding happens lands in our culvert and yard. The house west of ours at 1928 Ruby Lane has several big holes in their culvert which are larger than 3 feet. The debris from their destroyed concrete comes down to our culvert and blocks the waterway. I am including pictures. Last year the city fixed the culvert on a house 5 houses up from us, but didn't fix the rest of the culvert. Please advise what to do. Thank you
A section of road was removed from Union valley road directly adjacent from the Richland plaza. The edge of the road that was removed is ver sharp. When I slow down prior to going over this area the cars behind me get dangerously close. If this is not fixed then people's tires will be damaged and a possible rear end collision could occur. At least smooth the edge so I don't have to put myself and other occupants in my car in danger.
The street light on the northeast corner of W 7th St and N Maple St blinks in and out of operation. The pole has the number 151 949 on it.
There are two potholes on High St. in front of 610 S. High St. (between 1st and 2nd in the southbound lane).
Could the city look into removing the temporary sign at the corner of Pete Ellis Drive and Third Street that direct motorists to the various shops in the Barnes & Noble and Best Buy shopping centers? I believe this sign was placed during contruction on the 3rd Street and 46 Bypass construction to help motorists navigate into these shops. Now that construction is complete, can this unneeded sign please be removed?
THERE IS AN ABANDONED RED FORD PROBE THAT HAS BEEN ON THE PROPERTY FOR AT LEAST TWO MONTHS. NO LICENSE PLATES, AND IT NEVER MOVES.
The pedestrian crosswalk buttons are not working properly at the intersection of 10th & Jordan this morning. In particular, the westbound crossing button on the southeast corner did not activate the pedestrian crossing light through several cycles at approx. 9:10am. I didn't confirm, but it looked like other buttons/directions were having similar problems. Was working fine yesterday.
The street light on the right hand corner of the cul d sac appears to have been hit and has bent and fallen over into our tree. I'm not sure if it is city maintained light...the association said it is not responsible for it.
Hi, there. Not sure who to send this to, so I'm hoping you can forward it on. First, I recently came across this idea of closing streets (temporarily) to allow kids to play. I think it would be amazing to see something like this in Bloomington. http://www.reading.gov.uk/residents/community-and-living/play-streets/ Secondly, I took my three year old to Touch a Truck this year. What a wonderful event! We had a blast. He has been every year of his life, but this was the first time I was able to go with him. I wanted to give my feedback about the amount of candy at the event. It seems like it was everywhere and several other moms I talked to were really upset about it (especially since a lot of it was hard candy or really chewy stuff that can be a choking hazard for very young children). I think the trucks are the main event and the kids are so excited to see them. Adding candy to the mix just complicates things unnecessarily. Personally, I was really surprised to see the giant colors of fruit drinks (which I assume were donated by Pepsi). It was SO hot outside. I had forgotten our water bottles and really would have loved a drink of cold water. Our kids don't drink fruit drinks, so we just waited until we left and got water bottles elsewhere. But I would hope that Parks & Rec is all about encouraging healthy bodies, right? Maybe Pepsi could bring some water next year. Thanks.
