Excessive Growth
105 E Sunny Slopes DR
- Case Date:
- 9/30/2016
Once again, I need to report excessive grass growth on the lot just west of my lot (105 E Sunny Slopes Dr, Bloomington). It is an area that doesn't appear to belong to anyone--it is the extension of what might have been planned for a street.
Fire Hazards
1417 W Allen ST
- Case Date:
- 10/2/2016
I saw some neighborhood kids playing on what looked like our neighbors' power or phone box units. The kids were jumping and pushing them and pretending (I think?) to get shocked. One kid looked like he was trying to pull one over. I am concerned that they will get hurt or that a fire will start due to the damage. When I went to tell them to stop, they had run off.
Recycling
1606 S Nancy ST
- Case Date:
- 10/6/2016
My recycling and paper recycling was not picked up today. I called twice, both times before dept. closed. First time, at about 11:46 or noon got a man, very nice; second time at 1:50 an answering machine. I'm told recycling is closed on Friday. For how long must I leave these two containers out for pickup? I finally called the Mayor's office, and Elizabeth filed a U-report. Naturally she was nice and very prompt in helping me.
Abandoned Vehicle
102 E Allen ST
- Case Date:
- 10/7/2016
There's a silver Jeep Liberty parked facing the wrong direction on Allen between S. Washington and Walnut. It has been there for several weeks. I am assuming it was abandoned because it hasn't been moved for weeks, and one of the windows was left down.

I own a home that is currently rented at 852 S Romans Way, (Gentry Honours). Today I noticed a hole in the front yard between the sidewalk and curb area. The hole is about 8 inches around, but there is a cavern below it that is about 1.5 cu ft. Thank you!!

Potholes, Other Street Repair
2103 S Summerwood CT
- Case Date:
- 10/12/2016
Summerwood Court Cul-de-sac off Azalea. Asphalt has started crumbling and is breaking up. This circle is a major "turnaround"
for vehicles and gets a lot of traffic, which exacerbates the problem. If the City of Bloomington could do some repairs, it might offset the need for a major repair in the spring.

THANK YOU Dana Workman! I sent in a UReport this week about our crumbling cul-de-sac. Report was assigned to Dana. The cul-de-sac has already had lots of fresh asphalt put down to help keep it from further deterioration. Again, Thank you, Dana.

2873 S Walnut Street PIKE
- Case Date:
- 10/13/2016
Our street has no street sign (or stop sign). I live in Winslow Crossing and we don't have a sign at the intersection of Henderson & S Walnut St Pike (nor do we have a stop sign leaving our neighborhood) and it has resulted in a lot of confusion in the slightly more than year I have lived here since I purchased 2851 S Walnut Street Pike. Included are friends/family being unable to locate the address (we have no neighborhood sign and my HOA when I contacted them is in no hurry to get one), when I called for a non-emergency police issue he couldn't find the neighborhood, packages have nearly been sent back or just plain delivered to the wrong address because my address "doesn't exist" (because they can't find it). So I'm wondering what it would take to get a street name sign and hopefully also a stop sign, installed at the main intersection to help with the confusion.
Please let me know if there's anything I can do about this because it's becoming quite frustrating!
Thank you,
Denise J. Humphries
