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.
Not sure why my trash was not picked up yesterday (Thursday). My recycling was collected, but not two bags of trash (with stickers showing clearly). I guess I can put them in my garage until next Wednesday night, but if there was a problem with the trash that kept it from being picked up, I would like to know what that problem was.
I have faced multiple hostile-aggressive behaviors from men, women alike. Reported most of such complaints to relevant authorities, security personnels, etc.
Deep potholes on 12th street right after turning off Walnut.
large pothole - E bound lane of 3rd, far right lane, almost in intersection
The crosswalk near CVS is a bit dangerous for pedestrians during heavy traffic and has blind spot for drivers.
Pedestrian signal does not always appear to allow people to safely cross. Also, vehicles turning right to head east on 3rd so not stop for pedestrians. There needs to be an interval for pedestrian only crossing.
Giant holes in intersection. Unable to be avoided in left lane going straight.
Apologies if this is the incorrect category. Backyard is a bamboo grove. Can be seen from E. 5th street.
Hello, I would like to give feedback on some unfortunate observations recently on Kirkwood Avenue and the surrounding streets. This took place last Friday evening around 8:30. We took a stroll after dinner to walk around the downtown area, and it was the first time in 20 years of living here, I felt unsafe. I witnessed people doing drugs, drinking on the street, and what appeared to be a drug deal, right on Kirkwood. I have to say I have come to expect public intoxication from college age students, but I think the police do a very good job of handling those cases. The people involved in the activities I mentioned are not college students. Most looked like they could be homeless or struggling in some way. I understand there is no easy solution. These people need therapy, but they have to be willing to try to improve their lives. I'm not advocating arresting the people. I do think a stronger police presence is needed in these busy areas. I'd recommend posting cadets or others in uniforms strategically in the area. Maybe better lighting and security cameras would help. Thanks, Aaron Perry
