Street Trees

1017 W Howe ST

Case Date:
7/22/2024

The tree in the front of my home is jeopardizing my and my neighbor's roofs. We have three large silver maples here surrounding my home. The neighbor's giant, healthy silver maple broke in multiple points during the recent storms, destroying my roof and the back half of my house. It's costing about 15k in repairs, and my insurance took half of my claim amount away in non-recoverable depreciation and the deductible, so I only have enough to fix the roof even though my ceilings, floors, walls and electrical fixtures were all damaged as well. Additionally, the flood damage caused extensive mold growth throughout the back of my house. We are trying to work together to take care of these trees so this does not happen again, especially since I have to replace the whole roof. They are working to address one of the trees by taking out a loan, but the one in front of my house is on city property, and it would be good for us to get those larger overhanging branches trimmed back. Howe St becomes like a wind tunnel over on this corner when it storms and the trees are dangerous at that height. Additionally, there is a tree on the back side of my property in the alleyway between my house and the Optima Dermatology Center. The tree is overgrown and pulling down on the power lines that are connecting the pole to my house and my other neighbor's house. I will contact Duke about this, but they said on their website that they will only address the portion that is affecting the main power lines, not the lower power lines. In this particular case, the tree is affecting both the lower and upper lines, so I'm not sure whose jurisdiction that would be. It would only let me include one image, but I have three that I can send you to get a better look.

Animal Control & Neglected Pets

133 Lexington Ave

Case Date:
7/17/2024

I was walking my dog (on leash of course) up the street and all of the sudden a dog that lives at the house 133 Lexington Ave runs at top speed across the yard and into the street and straight for my dog. I started yelling “no” at it which slowed it down and the owner must have heard because they finally called the dog back. It was very scary and my dog was incredibly anxious afterwards. I had seen this dog do a similar behavior to someone else walking a dog while driving home last week. It happened so fast I was very concerned I would’ve accidentally hit the dog had I not seen it when I did. At first I thought this was just a one off accident but now that it has happened to me I realize that this dog does not have any sort of yard containment and is becoming more bold with this behavior. It is a great concern to everyone’s safety including the uncontrolled dog. Please visit the home and explain the safety issue and legality of ensuring their dog is properly contained.

Animal Control & Neglected Pets

4213 E Saratoga DR

Case Date:
7/18/2024

There are barking dogs at this address all day long starting very early in the morning. It's especially bad between 8am-12pm. They need to be forced to put up a solid fence around their backyard so their dogs can't see the street or backyard neighbors. When the inhabitants of this house were addressed by the neighbors they threatened to physically harm anyone complaining about their dogs. The police were called last year due to the physical threats. There must be some ordinance about barking dogs all day long. Can you make them put up a solid fence so their dogs can't see anyone who is walking by on the street or in their own backyard?

but there’s a large dead deer just east of 1906 S Hillside Drive, Bloomington, IN 47401, on the south side of the road, lying partially on the sidewalk. It’s summer; I walk past there often to take the bus; it’ll be horrible very soon…

Heard the guy renting (Nick Robinson) bragging about how he always keeps his 4 dogs outside outback, and barely feeds them. *The attachment is him saying he hates dogs. Not sure if he was serious, but was hoping someone could stop by.

Case Date:

Why does Covenanter Road have 3 minutes of green light at 7 in the morning for 1 car when there are 40 cars lined up down College Mall Road both directions? it seems weird to have that long of a light for 1- 2 cars is excessive
