Traffic Suggestions
1918 E Ruby LN

We have cars flying down Ruby Ln heading to High Street. Our house is on the corner of Ruby and S. Covenanter and they fly down Ruby Lane and turn having headed into the ditch. My main concern is that cars fly down Ruby Lane and we have several families with small children. On the lower side of Ruby Lane there is no sidewalk and these cars are flying down the road. Their speed would kill a pedestrian or a child playing if they got hit. It would be nice with a sign or a speed bump to slow some of the traffic flying down E. Ruby Lane. We never see police officers patrol our neighborhood...not even when we file a report that we are out of town and would like beefed up security checks. The same culprits drive exceedingly fast down both E. Ruby Lane and E. Southdowns Drive and never get ticketed for speeding. If you want to get extra income for the city...that would be the way to do it. Set up a police officer and catch all the drivers driving too fast down these streets.
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

Hello. I live at 3210 Kensington Park Drive. For more than a year, one of my neighbors has kept a vehicle parked along the curb in front of his house. It is an old BMW and covered with a tarp. The vehicle has flat tires and is never moved. Not only is this unsightly, but interferes with city services such as leaf pickup, snow removal, street cleaning, etc. I do not have the address of the house it is in front of, but it is about 4 doors to the west of my home, on the same side of the street. It would be obvious to see when you turn onto my street. I'm not sure where to report this, so if this is not the correct department, please advise. Thank you for any help you can give to me.

This morning I noticed that my passenger mirror had been hit. I got out of my vehicle and looked at the other cars down the road and noticed a couple others had been hit as well. (Passenger side of vehicles face a sidewalk, so not side-swiped by another vehicle.) I called the Bloomington Police Department around 2:15 explained the situation, was carried to dispatch, explained again and was told to write a report.

Though this is not a sidewalk or curb issue, I saw no other category that would fit my complaint. Overhanging branches in the 1500 block of E University. They hang so low that I can't drive under them without hitting my radio aerial.
Excessive Growth

The sidewalk on both the front and side of the property at 1700 E Camby Lane (southeast corner of Camby and Durham) is obstructed by low hanging branches and outgrowing vegetation. The HOA for the neighborhood has been notified and hasn't acted to rectify this, other than to send a letter to property owners mentioning overgrowth among other general comments; this hasn't resulted in any action by the homeowner. It's not possible to walk along the sidewalk without walking into tree limbs and/or bushes, so pedestrians must walk in the street on both the front and side sidewalks.
