The city of Bloomington has chosen to place two new, unwanted, street lights on the 1000 block of South Hawthorne. They appear to be halogens because they are VERY bright at night and causing light pollution at night. Our starry skies are gone. Why have they been placed there? There are currently "Hurricane" style street lights in the same vicinity. Did someone request these? Thank you. V/r, Mark

I would like to request the consideration of a streetlight for the block of N Fess Ave between E 9th St and E 10th St. I frequently walk through this block late on Thursday evenings, and it is the one block in the area that is truly dark. Other streets are well lit, but walking through this block is truly very dark and feels a bit unsafe. I've attached a photo of said block, although it's worth noting that my phone left the shutter open for longer when taking it, and thus in reality the block is darker than the photo would seem to indicate.

People have been using this walking trail as a road using cars, trucks, and motorized scooters. Driving cars on this path is unacceptable. There was once a cable at the top stopping people from driving but it has been cut. Please put a metal post at the beginning and end of this path preventing vehicles before someone gets injured.

The intersection at Boathouse and Forrester could probably use a 4-way stop now that bushes and parked cars can block the view when turning left from Forrester to get to Sare. Can be difficult to pull out while not seeing oncoming cars.

I live at 117 S.Heritage Rd in Park Ridge area. To avoid risk to crash into the vehicles parked on Heritage Rd, I turned into Morningside from 3rd street, then Park Lane, meadow brook, back to Morningside then into Heritage. When the time I turned into Morningside, it’s like from a bright hallway into a dark theater. Once I almost turn into the grass area. The street lights in Park Ridge area are old fashioned. The ones in Park Ridge East with low warm light are much better. The area I passed are all dark even with people’s own light, hard for drivers to see people walking their dogs in the night.

Tree limb in my yard is hanging on a wire to a light pole. I would like to cut it down, or have it cut down, but first need the power shut off for the light.
I live at 417 S Henderson St.
