Trails

Case Date:
7/20/2017

I am becoming very concerned with the increasing homeless population on the B-Line Trail. The trail is no different than the parks out of which they are being removed. It's interesting that they get to use the same city services when they don't pay taxes. They often monopolize the public spaces, thus adversely impacting the availability for those who pay taxes and responsibility use the city services. The City of Bloomington needs to begin worrying about its taxpaying citizens, not the homeless.

Increased traffic patrol by officers in the North Maple area would be greatly appreciated, for a couple reasons: 1) In the N Maple/15th St area, there is a motorcyclist who loiters and frequents the area between the hours of 7-11, off and on, who speeds/squeals his tires up and down the street, revs his engine, and drives recklessly, seemingly for fun. This has been an ongoing issue for months, but recently has become an every day occurrence. It's currently happening right now, 7:50pm on a Wednesday, and woke me up from a dead sleep at 10:30pm on Monday. Aside from the loud, incessant noise polution, his reckless driving is going to eventually cause damage to life or property. 2) At the intersection of Maple and 11th, there is a three way stop that half the people in this neighborhood completely ignore. I've had more than one close call there during my morning commute. People tend to roll through the stop sign, and only slightly hesitate, in an attempt to beat out whoever is coming the other way. Aside from being rude, it's super dangerous. Please assist with these issues. It's become very nerve-wracking to live in this neighborhood lately because of inconsiderate drivers/bikers. I was hoping it would go away after school let out, but it appears to be a townie issue.

Excessive Growth

Case Date:

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.

TO whomever patrols SR#37 just north of Bloomington (heading north). THANK YOU for stopping to check when my car was on the side of the road with my hazzard lights on. I SO appreciate the stop. I had called AAA and they were on their way, but I was SO glad that an officer (two different ones) stopped to see if I needed assistance. My flat tire was immaginary (AAA guy was not amuzed but accomodating). The road is bumpy and my indicator light said I had a flat tire, so I did what I thought I should do. So much for BMW indicator lights - they are a bit too sensitive - but I want to THANK those of you who check on stranded motorists. It is so very much appreciated and comforting.

Traffic along 1st and 2nd Streets and Henderson continues to increase in volume, speed, and non-compliance with stop signs. This is especially evident during morning and afternoon rush hours. Drivers have found they can cross town faster by cutting through core neighborhoods and ignoring traffic laws, than using major thoroughfares. Increased police presence would likely get these cars back on major roads. It is important the city realizes that it is the breaking of traffic laws that is making this traffic pattern desirable for drivers. I live at 1st and Henderson and less than 50% of cars come to a complete stop at this intersection.

Hello, I'm writing on behalf of my nephew Robert who idolize police officers. He is special needs young man who has overcome dozens of surgeries and brain aneurysms. Right now he is in a police explorer program, he completely loves the program. Besides the program he gathers a tremendous amount of joy from collecting business cards from police officers. His collection has grown to 2000 business cards along with trading cards and badges. He cherishes his collection as if they are rare jewels. I want to help his collection grow. I appreciate any help with this. Thank you for your time, Rebecca Plank 2818 Belknap Way San Diego, CA 92106 (408)391-5027
