On this page of the City of Bloomington Website (http://bloomington.in.gov/sanitationmodernization) I find conflicting references to the size of the recycling cart that will be issued to residents. See the quoted texts below. B. Recycling Operations • Weekly service: Recycling pickup will become a weekly pickup service on a designated day for each household. • Carts provided: Each household will receive a 64 gallon cart for recycling collection as a default. If desired, customers can also request either larger or smaller carts for recycling instead. Carts will be made of recycled content and containers that are currently being used will be picked up and recycled if the resident chooses. **Note: Households receive a 64 gallon cart. **Later it states...under the FAQs... How many carts will I get? Two carts will be provided per household, one for regular solid waste and one for all recycling. Again, customers will choose the size of their solid waste container. Customers will receive a 96 gallon recycling cart (or may request a smaller sized one), which will be collected for weekly single stream recycling. Households (customers) receive a 96 gallon cart. **My question is about which size recycling cart will people actually receive? I know I can request a smaller recycling cart, but which size are you actually planning to give households by default?
caller informs a Hobo village has left lots of trash, across the street from Cascades Village Apts. On Old 37 north...east side of the road. Caller thought since its winter it would be easier to access, he mentioned there was enough trash for two garbage trucks.
Read what it says here about holiday delays in Sanitation Services. Can you make any sense of what it it is saying about Labor Day? Why is the note for Labor Day nonsensically phrased differently from the others? What meaning am I to make of it? That's pretty infuriating. Don't send my some blathery response. Just fix it. https://bloomington.in.gov/sanitation
Last night there was VERY loud music until around 10:30 coming from the Knights Ridge apartment complex area. The base was so loud it was almost unbearable. I live across 446 in a brick home several yards from 446 so I can't imagine what it would be like being any closer to this event. I called the Sheriff's department to complain and was told they had an approved permit for a fund raising event for the Boys & Girls Club. This should never have been approved on a Thursday night with music being that loud. Please use better judgement in the future when approving these types of permits.
I want to commend Adam Wason, Shelby Walker, and Rhea Carter on helping me resolve my trash can problem. They went above and beyond. They deserve recognition. Not only did they fix the problem, I learned new things about sanitation services, which was very cool. They didn't cover that so much in the Citizen's Academy back in the day. I am SO THANKFUL for their help.
Christmas lights — why are the trees on the square no longer lighted? Those were really pretty when lit up.
At the corner of Rogers and Gordon Pike a new "full" stop light has been put in in place of the four way stop. The result is a real traffic jam. This corner would work well and move traffic more efficiently with a four way stop. We sat for 20 minutes or longer coming west from Kroger to Rogers because of the blockage caused by this light. Please consider doing something for the drivers in this area. Thank you.
I'm trying to understand the new parking meter policies and find conflicting information. At this webpage: http://bloomington.in.gov/documents/viewDocument.php?document_id=1938, the metered hours are from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. On the Parking Fact Sheet (downloaded from the website) says metering hours are from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Am I misinterpreting something or is there an error in one of these locations? Hope you can clarify. Thanks.
