Thank-you to so those who spoke to Bloomington High School about the PA speaker in recent weeks. Between away games and what appears to be an effort to reduce the volume, I have seen a significant difference. However, I am not sure why, but tonight seems to be worse than ever. Inside our house, I can still hear every word of the loudspeaker. I know when there are touchdowns. I know who scored what. Please speak to the high school again.

Business

Case Date:
10/13/2018

Hello - I am reporting a noise violation that I have previously reported to the City. I do not want to burden the police department with this, as I believe it can be worked out in a reasonable manner. The Royal Toyota South car lot on Walnut is a noise violation according to City Ordinances. I first reported this problem in December 2017 (Ureport Case #162088). The case is marked as "resolved" although the phone continues to ring just as loud and just as frequently to this day. Since that time, I have determined the City simply does not care. Business with multiple locations and money in town, versus lowly homeowner. I decided to report it again today because the phone has been ringing quite a bit lately. A review of City Ordinance 14.09.040 does not show this as a valid exemption. Under 14.09.030(c)(4) a loudspeaker is a prohibited noise. Also, I have heard this phone ring between the hours of 9pm and 7am previously which "is prima facie evidence of a violation of this section." The car lot has previously acknowledged to the City that this is their phone ringing. I simply want to be afforded the quiet enjoyment of my home and my property free from this incessant noise violation. I am roughly 2,000 feet from this car lot. I also know this is heard on the golf course at the Country Club, more than 3,000 feet from the car lot. The City is allowing one perpetrator to cast a very wide net of annoyance to local residents through a repeated noise violation. Please help those of us on the south side by putting an end to this violation of City ordinances. Thank you. Best, Nick

Scooters, Bike-share and Related Issues

Case Date:
10/13/2018

since they recently appeared downtown, scooters keep being parked anywhere, many times blocking the sidewalk. (For example, like in the attached picture from Grant street). The companies profiting from these scooters should provide appropriate parking racks. The usage of the scooters should be more clearly regulated too. They are used on sidewalks at very high speeds.

Traffic Suggestions

Case Date:
10/14/2018

The intersection at W Isaac Drive and S Westplex Ave is now unmarked for traffic northbound and southbound on S Westplex Ave. Now that S Westplex is open from Third S to the south, northbound and southbound traffic has increased and moving fast for the neighborhood. Thank you for your attention.

Water Utility Billing Problems

Case Date:
10/15/2018

I have attempted to pay my water bill online two separate times now and the system will not approve my purchase. I have tried completing the payment on two separate occasions (10/08/18 and 10/15/18) and I have tried with different credit cards. I still haven't been able to complete the payment. My account number is 30500-028

They built a new sidewalk on the corner of a big apartment complex, but it juts out into the street. Is that up to Code?

Trash

Case Date:
10/16/2018

4011 E Morningside has been vacant for nearly two years. They mow but some of the weeds are getting pretty intense. Biggest thing is can you ask whoever the owner is (not sure where they live) to move the never used old recycling and trash can in drive to a nonvisible location. Are trash now. Ideally the new carts too since never used anymore. But the old ones at least should not be sitting in the drive forever.
