Street & Traffic Signs
Kirkwood and Lincoln
- Case Date:
- 7/18/2024
Blocked stop sign- I have posted this before, when a food truck parks on Kirkwood in front of the library near Lincoln (north side of the street) the stop sign for west bound traffic is obscured. In the 5 minutes I have been watching, 4 cars have completely run the stop sign. If the sign was in the small planter bed closest to the street or mounted on the same pole as the street sign, this might be avoided. Or at a minimum post no parking sign for tall vehicles. Thanks!
Blocked Street
Grimes and Henderson

You have 8 workers with their thumbs up their butts doing absolutely nothing and with whatever cheap traffic barriers in place traffic was stopped 3 ways-I waited for 11 minutes heading north and the traffic was backed up past the intersection at Hillside
I’ve never seen anything as incredulous in my entire life
Line of Sight
Grimes & Henderson

There is a surveillance camera at the construction property on Grimes and Henderson. Thought it was a street light at first but then realized it was a surveillance camera, feel that it is against public privacy, especially since it is located at a construction site with private contractors.

Near the intersection of Thornton and Buffstone court ( on the right hand side and near middle of sidewalk is a large hornets nest in the ditch. If you walk on the sidewalk they attract you. Two of my neighbors were stung repeatedly this past week. This is dangerous as if you walk down the sidewalk they attack you. Children use this sidewalk to walk to school
Trails

There are 15-20 shopping carts in the Latimer Woods, if you go down the trail you will continue seeing more trash, clothes, and shopping carts. The culvert down at the bottom of this trail is filled with trash as well. It would be fine if these were individuals just setting up a camp for themselves, but they are destroying the property and filling it with just trash. This morning when I was walking out there there was a broken vase that had been put out into the street too

Walking the trails and street line next to Latimer Woods and at the bus stop of E Buick Cadillac Blvd and S Clarizz Blvd I realized that there has been more trash filling in this area. There are now three shopping carts and some homeless encampments. The area has a foul smell. I walk this area almost every morning and this part of the woods has gotten worse with trash and encampments.

Run each morning next to the mall and the Latimer woods and there have been homeless encampments in the wooded area of Latimer woods for 3-4 months now. This morning it had a more unusual foul smell than usual, like the smell of something/someone dead. There is broken glass and trash throughout the woods and coming out of that area as well
Trails
Bloomington Rail Trail
- Case Date:
- 7/31/2024
The Rail Trail south of Country Club has some issues. There are large divots/depressions in the trail from the trees that fell in the June storms and the clean up. These depressions are difficult to see on the trail and are big enough and deep enough to be quite jarring on a bicycle. I imagine a runner or walker could get injured stepping into an unexpected hole as well. There are at least 3 or 4 of these depressions on the Rail Trail. Can the city get these leveled out? Please use a filler or fine gravel that matches the trail, not some large gravel sizes as have been done in the past on the Rail Trail repairs that create other issues.
