Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
- Case Date:
- 1/6/2014
Sorry, but this was the most appropriate place I could find. I think the street department does a terrific job. However, I have a complaint about the actions of a snowplow. I live at 344 S. Rogers st. I went out several times yesterday to keep my front sidewalk clean. Sometime after 8 pm a snowplow came by so fast that snow was thrown not only on my sidewalk but also on the retaining wall next to the sidewalk, see the picture. What is even more annoying is that the same snowplow did not do this to my next door neighbor. I hope that in the future the snowplow driver will have more understanding of the problems with going too fast and ruining a homeowners hard work. Thank you

a “road work ahead” sign has been on our property for quite awhile and it blocks our view when leaving our driveway to turn onto the street. It is also in the space that we snowplow our snow. We would like it removed as soon as possible. We live at 8735 Penn Ave S, Bloomington, MN 55431 Thank you.
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

There is a curb cut on Hunter Ave, it seems have serviced a vacated alley, right behind 502. S. Hawthorne. The house owners have fence the area, so perhaps they believe they own it, but GIS sees it as an alley. I was walking down west on Hunter after dark on Sunday evening, and the shrubbery shadows the street lights. Even though I have been a neighborhood resident for 2 decades, I forgot that I had to step down when on the sidewalk, and I stumbled a bit, caught myself, but then hit the curb on the other side, and fell on the sidewalk, thus abrading my right elbow and knee. I see no reason for the curb cut, and am requesting that it be filled in. We have numerous people out at night walking dogs, taking the night air, and I can imagine a more serious accident here, especially if one is elderly (at 67, I fell pretty fit.) I do feel stupid that I was not paying attention to a hazard I have been aware of for years, but there it is. Here are the views, I could not get the upload to work (neither did the Choose Location link, but I am on a Mac using Chrome, and if your system is Windows based, therein may be the problem https://www.dropbox.com/s/qp74i2ruo2kvewh/2015-02-08%2010.04.23.jpg?dl=0

Requesting additional snow removal at the intersection of Wynndale Drive and West 3rd street. The intersection by Bounds and McPike Carpet is very slick and full of snow and ice. Cars are having trouble getting up the hill there.

At the southwest corner of East Third St. at the 45-46 Bypass, there's a pile of snow that makes it difficult for pedestrians to move from the sidewalk to the crosswalk (heading east) or from the crosswalk to the sidewalk (heading west). I had to dodge briefly into the lane for cars. I know it's hard to keep all of the corners clear for pedestrians, but that's a busy corner, and even in this weather there are still some pedestrians out and about along that stretch of E. Third.

City did not plow and treat streets i Hearthstone Village in either od the last two snows. Nature's Way has the contract for drive way and sidewalk snow removal in Hearthstone
village has plowed the streets somewhat, but not treated them. My understanding is that these are city streets. they have always ben plowed by the city before and my understanding that these streets are city responsibility. Please correct this oversight. Joanne Frye 1214 S. Hearthstone Court 47401

Packed snow on W Maybury Mall

- 3/1/2015
March 1, 2015. Last night a snow plow came only part way down our street (East Maplecrest Drive) as a result of a parked car. It then backed completely out and did not finish the rest of the street. This car has been parked in the same place for over 3 months. We need our street plowed. Please help.

Can you please send a unit to Sunstone Dr between Summit Ridge townhomes and Adams Village Apartments to plow snow from the street? The development owners of the Summit Ridge townhomes have shoved the snow from their drives across the street into the parking spots for the apartments, and making on-street parking dangerous and impossible for those who have nowhere else to park at their homes, and cars are narrowly avoiding being sideswiped because of improperly plowed streets and driveways. Thank you.

this is a correction for the pothole I reported last week. It is not in front of 1707 E Second, but 1807. Right now it is covered by snow, but it will re-appear soon enough. Thanks.
