I'm sure that 90% of what you recieve are complaints. In this regard instead of complaining, I have an idea for a more efficient and less dangerous form of traffic onto 3rd street from S. Muller Parkway, heading West. People turn through the 3rd St. turning lane risking danger and a ticket and also any dangerous U-Turns in the middle of the Intersection of 3rd St. and S. Cory Lane. I have to deal with this pressure when needing to turn west onto 3rd St. almost every day because I worked down 3rd St. west and I live off of S. Basswood Drive. One time I got pulled over by a sheriff for going through the 3rd St. turning lane and recieved a warning, luckily. Now, the cross-section of 3rd St. and S. Muller Parkway only allows traffic to go From 3rd St. on to S. Muller Parkway. I know that is because the road to S. Muller Parkway crosses with the road to 3rd St. west which would obviously cause collisions. According to the Google earth map, the distance is 720 Ft. to the Intersection of 3rd and S. Cory Lane From S. Muller Parkway. I have a proposal to avoid crossing the turning lane and dangerous U-Turns in the intersection for heading west on 3rd St. (Also saves gas and driving distance of course.) I created a plan in the diagram Image from the street map I aquired that I uploaded to show you for an example of the proposal. This Google map is very outdated, but it gives you a good prospective of the idea. All of this should work. There is enough space where the very wide curb(street gap) resides inbetween street directions for the proposed turn-offs, as there is for the turn-off heading west on 3rd St. Turn-off Option 1 only 172 Ft. down 3rd St. East: Reduce 3rd St. West Turning lane by half and add a turning lane on 3rd St. East wilst dividing the width of each lane Equally. After reducing the curb size, a thinner middle curb remains dividing them still. The turning lane off of 3rd St. west is relatively long as you'll see. Longer than necessary for a small neighborhood road, so I figure option 1 is feasible. Turn-off Option 2 Only 265 Ft.(maybe give or take 30 Ft.) down 3rd St. East connecting to the Gas Station. People can choose to turn into the gas station and out or make a u-turn. Thank you very much, Eliot P.S. It was fun putting this together to present to you. Oh btw, as a side note, it would be great if you expanded the Report Details Description dialog boxes in the form scripts, because I can't see what I write. Instead I wrote everything out in notepad, copied and pasted.

The driveway between 534 and 536 S. Washington is almost always parked with too many cars, completely obstructing (parking over) the sidewalk. I don't know what the landlord tells the students, but I think they are probably trying to cram too many cars into the available space, and completely obstruct the sidewalk. Also, 536 S. Washington has uncovered bags of trash next to the house, visible from sidewalk.

A large portion of a downed tree is entirely blocking the southernmost end of Georgetown Road in Bloomington. Three residents cannot get out of their driveways and emergency vehicles could not get to the end of the street. Can you send someone very soon this morning to remove the tree?

Earlier tonight a tree fell down over the bridge at Lake Griffy, blocking both lanes of traffic. A few of us motorists got out and pushed it over the guardrail to clear the road. It occurs to me that now it's possible for that tree to roll down on to boaters (although I think it's still partly attached at the base). You might want to check it out though, and also possibly the guardrail sections on both sides. It's on the side closest to the boat house.

The address is approximate. Railroad ties, 2x4's and what looks like a dog lead is blocking a street giving a lack of access for residents to the access way for Rockport Rd. from the corresponding neighborhood in which the access was erected, where as the apartments of Dorthy were annexed, or derived from the corresponding neighborhood. There is not consistent on sight property management for 2304 South Rogers Street. Dorthy Apartments claim to own the street that is blocked, which city planning documents I control or possess show otherwise. I am concerned that this is a gang-related incident in which will have numerous crimes attached. This is a public area because of the sidewalks, area developments, and subjection people are to encounter.

There are two abandoned vehicles parked on W. Dove Drive, near the corner of Falcon and Dove. The white van and white SUV have parked here for over four weeks. The owners, who live in the house on the corner of Falcon/Dove, are in the process of selling the house, and have left the two cars there for months. It creates a traffic hazard when turning the corner, especially at night.
