The street light on the NorthEast Corner of Sheffield Drive & East Morningside Drive in Park Ridge East is malfunctioning. It fads in and out of light every 10 minutes. Thank you for your attention to my report. Take Care!!! Jim W.

To Whom It May Concern,
I previously asked about how to contact the Woolery Stone Mill about hosting an event at that location. I was given an unoffical facebook page with no contact information. How do I contact whomever owns the property to inquire about an event?
Thank you.
Daniel

A low-flying yellow single-engine airplane has been flying at low altitudes directly over the residential area, towing a banner, for hours a day, every day, for the past week or so.
It's just circling for hours, not coming in on approach for landing.

In the H-T this morning (17 June 2017), Carol Hanna writes about Bloomington not having a senior citizens center.
I would like to suggest that the former Kmart building on East Third Street would make a good site for a senior center. The building itself could be divided into many areas, and there is a large parking lot. It is located near grocery and retail stores. Additionally, the public library Bookmobile stops in that lot once a week.

Customer called to complain about restaurant's grease in alley behind Grazzi. Customer is an employee of King Dough. Another customer (also a King Dough employee) confirmed that the situation is ongoing. There is a grease collection container (for recycling restaurant grease and oil) that may be leaking or just overflowing.
Complaint was called into city switchboard on Saturday night. Alley needs to be cleaned and dumper counseled.

City pathway is popular sight for criminal activity such as: drug deals and use (used needles are common on stairs of city path), destruction of public and private property, fighting, littering, public urination and feces, and this year we've had two occurrences of people on the path discharging guns (~1pm last night was the most recent occurrence- see police report). The stairs on the path are unsafe and create a safe haven for criminal activity because the police can not pursue the suspects down the path or stairs. Instead the police have to drive around the block to try and head of the criminals and thus allows them to evade police. My community and the police officers are requesting that these dilapidated stairs and path be removed. They are public menace to our community and Bloomington society as a whole. Please help us protect our community by removing this criminal gateway into our neighborhood.
My fellow community members and I will continue to post updates on our problems, interactions with criminal (e.g. death threats) and reporting of criminal activities associated with this path (including photos).

Hello! The street light on our street keeps going off and on, off and on, and we would like for you to look at it and see if it can be repaired. It is the only street light on our street and it's pitch black when it goes out, which is a safety hazard. It is the one on South Covey Lane between Thornton Drive and Miller Drive. It is right by an old red shed, and across from 1720 & 1724 South Covey Lane. We would appreciate it so much if you would repair it. Thank you.

Once again the police have had to come into our area, following a street fight along the sidewalk between our homes. Just 2 nights ago shots were being fired less than 12ft. from my grandson's bedroom at 1am on that sidewalk. Police did find 1 of the 6 teens. Yesterday the fight landed two young adults in my driveway seeking refuge from an out of control violent young man. I'm disabled on crutches, and when I tried to stop the attacker from coming on my property he threatened serious harm to me and my grandson. Just before it got deadly, police with a K-9 arrived. Thank you BPD. The cut-thru sidewalk has become a danger and a menace to all of us and it is used mainly for bad activity. It needs to be closed, and the broken steps up to 12th street need to go. Many of us are elderly, disabled, and tired of these constant problems. City leaders NEED to come and see this area, and the trash, broken steps, empty drug needles, etc. We need help beyond having to call BPD all the time. Please take this seriously before someone is not just assaulted again, but perhaps shot. 2 gun incidents this spring is 2 too many. Thank You.
