I let you know there scoteer blocking sidewalk
Pickup truck with boat blocking sidewalk on east side of Rogers between 2nd and 3rd
Dark car parked on west side of street on sidewalk
Residents at 2526 S Rogers St Bloomington, In 47403 have at least 2 of their 4+ cars and trucks consistently parked fully on the sidewalk that borders their property on Ralston. They're essentially using this sidewalk as a parking lot / repair area for their vehicles. This is not a temporary occurrence but something that is observed on a daily basis for many months.
Residents have multiple cars and trucks parked across the full width of the sidewalk bordering their house. This extends beyond any staging or load-up for their food truck, and is a regular parking spot for their SUV, sedan, and guests. I reported this issue via "Blocked Sidewalk", and as a Broadview neighborhood officer I would appreciate a direct update on communication to these neighbors. Thanks so much.
There is a white SUV that regularly parks in the street beside this house on the corner. The plate number is: ey199. It is an I.U. plate. I think this house has recently been placed as a rental. There is no sidewalk there and it is hard to see traffic on 8th Street from Hopewell when the SUV is parked there.
This request is for one additional No Parking sign on Union Street, just north of 7th Street. Bloomington Municipal Code 15.32.080 describes a No Parking zone on the west side of Union Street spanning from 7th to 175 feet north of 7th St. Currently this area has a yellow painted curb; however, when there is snow, the curbs are covered. I have spoken with Parking, who states they are unable to ticket when the yellow curbs are covered. I am asking that you please erect one (or more) No Parking sign to cover this particular No Parking zone. When vehicles park in this region, it makes it very difficult for vehicle to see traffic approaching from the north when turning from the west part of 7th onto Union St. I live on the SE corner of 7th & Union and often hear cars honking due to near-collisions—presumably due to poor visibility. I also drive a transit bus for IU; even in the bus, it is very difficult to see traffic approaching from the north. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions regarding my inquiry. Again, this is already a codified no parking zone with yellow curb paint; I'm just asking that a No Parking sign be erected so that it remains enforceable when snow obscures curbs.
Occasionally, I find a vehicle parked on the bicycle/pedestrian path that leads from Countryside Lane to the apartment complex behind the houses on Countryside Lane and Adams Circle. I often walk or cycle in this neighborhood and find it difficult to navigate the improperly parked vehicle, which usually blocks the cross sidewalk as well. Would it be possible to install a couple of posts to discourage parking on the path? I'm not looking to get anyone ticketed, but a good number of drivers seem to be conveniently ignorant of the rules here. Thank you, Nick.
The cars at this rental property (off 8th st) are consistently squeezing as many cars in the "parking" spot as they can which inevitably means they park on the sidewalk. I have called the rental property company and they have clearly neglected to do anything about it. A traffic cop should drop some tickets on these guys
