I hope I am reporting this to the same place that I did earlier (see below) The City of Bloomington website is a bit Byzantine in nature I live at 1300 East Maxwell Lane on the SE corner of E. Maxwell Lane and Highland Avenue. Several weeks ago I contacted you about a hole in the pavement that runs in front of out house. It is situated in an offset parking area that looks to be on the easement along the front of our house. The hole is about 8 inches across and several inches deep. Below the surface of the pavement you can see the top of a pipe which extends north towards an open drainage area at the intersection of East Maxwell Lane and Highland. It would seem to continue to the south down Highland. You can see the edge of the pipe, which is open, where the hole in the pavement has formed and it looks as though water must have been draining out at this point causing the surrounding material around it to erode which allowed the pavement above it to collapse. Several days after I contacted you someone from the city did come out and look at it but said that he was not sure as to whether it was the city’s responsibility to correct the problem or ours as the homeowners. He said he would need to research the situation to see exactly what might be involved in the problem and who should take care of the repair. However we have not heard anything from the city concerning this and we would like to have it corrected before winter sets in with more rain and snow runoff creating more of a problem, which I feel sure will ultimately affect not only our lot but also the street adjacent to it. A few days after that person was here I did see a city car pulled up alongside Maxwell Lane for a few minutes but no one got out or came to the door to inquire but it could have been someone else from the city coming to assess the situation. They may have been thinking that the problem was on that side of the house since we do have a Maxwell Lane address but the house faces Highland and the problem is on that side. I don’t know, this is just a guess. Could someone there please check to see what is happening with this problem?

The light for traffic crossing Rt 45 and Leonard Springs Road needs to be lengthened. Many run the red light there to attempt to get across.

There is a person by CVS on North Walnut who is shining a light or something that causes a person to have severe vision problems momentarily. This has happened to me several times. I see something like stars for several minutes and then it goes away. I prefer not to give my name, but this is something I have experienced several times in this area while out walking. This is causing a major safety concern and is a severe disturbance. I believe there is a person doing this or a person is programming a piece of technology to do this. I've been the victim of several assaults in Bloomington besides this specific problem.

The intersection of Patterson and 2nd street is horribly timed. The turning lane can maybe get 3-4 cars through it. The lanes that cross can maybe get 5-8. This especially bad in the mornings. There are several times that I have almost been hit by the turning lane as they are trying to rush the red light (due to the small # of cars that can get through). Also, there are several times that people in the turning lane on 2nd are running the light which puts the Patterson Drive people at a risk to get hit or not have enough time to get through the light.

On Schacht Road, coming TOWARD Fairfax, one of the yellow arrows is pointing the wrong way. It's a 90 degree turn, and someone could drive off the road if they follow the sign as is. Also a number of street signs in Admiral Glen have been knocked off.

Hi, Just a quick email to let you know about a link on your site which does not appear to be working. It's on this page: http://bloomington.in.gov/sections/viewSection.php?section_id=84 I'm getting an error message when I visit this link: http://www.fema.gov/areyouready/ We’ve put together a resource which I think would make a suitable replacement for the broken link - http://ammo.com/articles/why-prepare-for-a-disaster. It covers subjects such as why you should plan, what a disaster supply kit should contain and the different types of disasters; manmade and natural. All the best Sam
