At the corner of Washington and first there has been a car parked in the bike lane for weeks and now there are two cars parking in the bike lane. The curb is painted yellow indicating no parking. Sometimes the cars have tickets on them but most of the time they don’t. That intersection is already not safe for cyclist and it’s compounded by cars always being parked in the bike lane

Hello, a car was parked illegally in front of my car today on Washington St at the stop sign at 2nd street. Since the car behind me was practically at my bumper, I was not able to access my car and make it to work on time because the car in front of me parked illegally.

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.

A lot of car, truck , blocking the alley for hours. We can not have access for our delivery stuff. Would you mind to put the sign, like, 15 min max to stop at alley, so they don't block the alley for 2 hours or sometimes 5 hours more. Thank you

Alley is being used as an extended-hour parking lot for multiple vehicles, particularly in the evening, making access difficult.

Hello, i am writing to get more information on parking permits for downtown employees. I currently work on Kirkwood ave. I and my co-workers currently park in a "3 hour free" parking alot behind out building we are very busy with clients during the day and do not always have time to run out to pay the parking lot. I personally average $20-$80 a week in parking tickets. I would much rather spend that money on a month/yearly parking pass. Is there any that are available?
Thank you,

A huge tree just fell across the street from my house (300 S Fairview). It's on the City's boulevard. No damage to houses or people that I can see. It is blocking the side walk only, not the street. Thank goodness it fell where it did and not onto the street or a house! I know Ladd Rentals owns 301 S Fairview. Jaclyn
