Potholes, Other Street Repair

Case Date:
5/23/2025

there is a hole in S. Morton Street, formerly heat and round, about a foot deep. Others like it along the street have covers with the word"water." This one has no cover, is crumbling and the street around it is breaking up into the hole. I live at 748; this is in street just north of my house.

I thought that the Bloomington Speedway was allowed to race until 11:00 PM. It’s 12:20 AM and I think they are just stopping. Who enforces the code/noise ordinance?

Unsafe Buildings

Case Date:
5/27/2025

Trying to find way to reply to our previous report. The only way possible is to create a new one ... This is about UReports concerning RE: #202909 Thank you for the people who looked into this for us - Rob Council replied "Exterior inspection has been conducted on property. Does not meet unsafe threshold" How can this be if there is no longer yard fencing on South side of pool? Pool water is green, cover is off, complete access into yard to pool by alley (There used to be a garage that fell down and was removed before sale) Isn't there a City safety ordinance about pools? Ex. "In Bloomington, Indiana, an ordinance requires fences around swimming pools and other water-filled excavations. Specifically, Ordinance 17-19 amended Section 14.36.160 to align pool fencing requirements with the Indiana Administrative Code. This means that swimming pools and other water-filled excavations must have a fence at least 4 feet high that completely surrounds the pool area. Elaboration: Ordinance 17-19: This ordinance amended Section 14.36.160, which previously required fences around all bodies of water with a depth exceeding 36 inches. Now, the ordinance primarily focuses on swimming pools and their fencing requirements, aligning with the Indiana Administrative Code. Fencing Requirements: The Indiana Residential Code (R326.27.3) outlines specific requirements for pool fencing: Walls or fences at least 4 feet high, completely surrounding the pool and deck. Self-closing and latching gates and doors, capable of being locked. Alternative means, deemed impenetrable by the enforcing authority, can be used instead of traditional fences. A combination of the above options is also allowed. A power safety pool cover can be used as an alternative, provided it connects continuously to the deck and requires a key or other secure mechanism to operate. Violation: Violating the ordinance is considered a misdemeanor, according to Section 14.36.170."

Excessive Growth

Case Date:

Poion ivy, etc. blocking half the sidewalk along Grant. Might actually be the neighbors at 817, or both. Note trees of heaven in the same area. A tangled mess.

Street Lights

Street lights are out at night at 2422 E. Maxwell Lane. This is an issue because it is dark at the end of the lane and this is a dead end street.

Drainage or Runoff

Case Date:
6/2/2025

A storm drain is located on Plymouth Road by the northeast point of my property. (It is directly across from the fire hydrant at Beacon and Plymouth.) The water from the drain runs underground on the north side of my house, then empties at the back by the railroad. The water then runs south over the open ground. During heavy rains, a creek forms and the stormwater overflows the small natural runoff channel, flooding into my yard. On Memorial Day weekend, I noticed that a small "sinkhole", maybe three feet wide, had formed near the back of my driveway. Also, when the last contractor installed cables, they dug a trench through our backyards and that trench is getting deeper, too. Where the storm drain empties at the back of the lot, there is a very large hole due to erosion. I am concerned that there is a problem with the infrastructure which is affecting my property. Could someone please help me determine the cause and solution to the problems? Jeanne Dutton 621 N Plymouth Road 812-606-9233
