Graffiti

1136 S Morton ST

Case Date:
7/23/2026

Loads of trash left over from a drug addict encampment. Been there over two weeks. Don't know if it is on New Hope's property or City property. It's an unsightly and smelly mess. Please either have New Hope clean it up or send a city crew to do it.

Accessibility Problem

1000 N Orris DR

Case Date:
7/23/2026

The property adjacent to me 922 North orris has a huge tree, that I have tried to get them to maintain for nearly 5 years. A week ago a woman that was at the property said there was a new property manager and she would have him call me. No reply. I am disabled and can no longer continue to trim this tree off of the adjoining sidewalk. The sidewalk goes over to the try North swimming pool. It runs between our properties. This tree is so overgrown it's branches get on my roof onto my property all the way down to the ground covering the sidewalk. If we did not constantly trim this you wouldn't be able to walk down the sidewalk to get to the pool or the school. I am so tired of trying to resolve this, I've told the people that cut the grass every week nearly for two years and nobody's done a damn thing. I'm hoping you can help and find out who needs to trim this back. I believe it's rented to disabled guy who's pretty much a recluse. Thank you

I earlier requested a visit to check the condition of the tree whose branches fell on the street and sidewalk on July 11 (case number 212545). I replied to an email from Haskell asking for our address but realized it's from [email protected]. In case my reply didn't reach him, I am reporting it again here with our address.

Fire Hazards

3789 E McCracken Way apt 8

Case Date:

Jamie Ward 812-512-5473 3789 E McCracken way apt 8 Bloomington Indiana I bought a brand new washer and dryer from Lowe’s just a couple of months ago. My dryer started making a really loud noise yesterday and a red light came on. When I googled with the light it said exhaust./duct issue. I called Samsung to ask them to come and look at my dryer because it’s still under warranty and they asked me has anyone cleaned the dryer duct/ vent outback? I said that I had not I can’t even get to it. I don’t have a letter that tall and I don’t know what I’m doing, but I’m not sure if Maintenance had or not they said that they would not send anyone to fix the dryer until the duct was cleaned out. I contacted office management. Who then informed me that she tried to get the owner to have Maintenance to come fix it but he declined. I have a two year-old and a three year-old not only do I need a dryer, but there’s obviously an issue../fire hazard!

Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

1131 W Meadow CT

Case Date:
7/22/2026

Crews working on gas line notified me this morning that M Street Fiber has run their line through my sewer and broken it and it is leaking. I was told by the Utilities department to contact Kyle Baugh to arrange repair but I have been unable to reach him or the main office by phone this morning. Per your voicemail instruction I am leaving this email and asking someone to contact me at your earliest convenience. The crews do not plan to fill the excavation back in until repair is made. Thank you.

City Performance

Building Trades Park

Case Date:
7/22/2026

The daily situation in the park is so bad now that people are even complaining about it on reddit - https://reddit.com/r/bloomington/comments/1v34gaw/building_trades_park/ Every single day, all day, there is a group of men from outside the neighborhood that set up and drink, gamble, smoke weed, sell drugs, fight and scream. Every. Single. Day. The "security patrols" are pathetic, they never confront these people. Cops never patrol, no city employees are ever present in this park. There is a playground where people used to take their kids, but no sane parent would allow their children in the park when these men are present. The neighborhood is begging you to do something before the violence escalates.

Street Trees

Case Date:
7/21/2026

On the morning of July 11, I found a large branch that had fallen into the street, blocking about half of the roadway. A few hours later, another branch from the same tree fell onto the sidewalk. Both branches were removed promptly after I reported the issues, and I appreciate the quick response. However, I am concerned about the health of the tree, as falling branches could pose a safety risk to pedestrians or passing vehicles. Would you please arrange for someone to evaluate the tree's condition? Thank you!

210 U W Kirkwood AVE

Case Date:
7/21/2026

Wasn't sure how to categorize this issue of cigarette litter. north sidewalk on Kirkwood, outside of Crazy Horse and Alley Bar. Patrons of these two businesses frequently litter their cigarettes onto the sidewalk, into the planter, into the drain, into the metal cage surrounding the pipes--without extinguishing them. It's pretty gross and also a fire hazard. And I'm guessing when the cigarettes go into that drain, they end up in Clear Creek, which isn't great for the environment (not that there aren't other issues affecting Clear Creek's cleanliness, but still). I've noticed it for years, but I guess I only cared enough to write a UReport now. Because earlier this week I was walking my dog on that sidewalk, and someone flicked their cigarette onto the ground near me, and my dog must have thought it was a treat or a scrap of food because she tried to gobble it up. And I think it burnt her tongue a little because she was whining for the rest of the day. Maybe we could get Crazy Horse and Alley Bar to set up cigarette receptacles so their patrons have a designated place to safely dispose of cigarettes?
