Hello, there is a large dead tree down in the residential neighborhood of Woolery Woods (picture attached). The property is located at the intersection of Countryside Lane and Star View Lane. The tree fell during a storm earlier this spring. The downed tree is located on a green space property that is owned and maintained by the developer, Arthur Management. There is no building structure on the property, but it is adjacent to multiple homes. I believe Municipal Code 6.06.020 (Deposit of Garbage) requires the property owner to dispose of the dead tree and the associated yard waste. Neighbors in our Neighborhood Association have attempted to contact Mr. Arthur, but he has been unresponsive to our requests. Thank you for any assistance the city may provide with helping to improve the aesthetics of our neighborhood.

I have a client who has come to my office to report that there is a lot of garbage that is left around her house and across from her house in an empty lot. The garbage comes from her neighbor and she would like someone tell him he cannot spread his garbage outside of his property. She has confronted him before but he gets angry and irrational. My client has seen he leaves couches and large items in the empty lot in front of their house. She is asking someone please go look at the area and speak to him about this problem.

The City of Bloomington 2014 Trash Collection fridge magnet indicates that there would be yard waste collection every other Monday March-December. It gives December 29 as a recycle and yard waste collection date. I was wondering why our yard waste was not picked up today, nor were the 10 bags with leaves at 2020 E Second.

Duke Energy removed two trees from city property (immediately adjacent to E Rogers Road) and left the two sycamore trucks cut up in 8' segments on my property. I called Duke and asked them to remove them, but they said it's the landowner's responsibility (Duke cuts, but doesn't remove). Since the trees were on city-owned land, I hope the city will dispose of them. Please see the attached screenshot from the GIS system that demonstrates where my property boundary ends. The city clearly owns some portion of land adjacent to the road. These two trees were within three feet of Rogers Road, and were removed to provide more access to the pole Duke is replacing.
Additionally, I'm frustrated with Duke about two things:
1) The pipe they've installed immediately adjacent to the road is incredibly unsightly. It's rusty and approximately 20 feet too long. I'd be happy to provide a picture of this.
2) In order to get big trucks back to this pole, they have installed two corrugated plastic drainage pipes and covered them with gravel. They are dramatically too small for the location. Since they first did this several years ago, the pipes are continuously clogged with leaves and sticks. The flow of water is constantly stopped here. As a result, there is a bit of local flooding which washes out the gravel Duke uses to cover the culverts. This is a very disappointing solution to have implemented on one's property. I have pictures of this, as well.
I have no problem with Duke accessing their pole. They have every right to do so. I also understand that the City probably didn't know their trees were cut down or placed on my property. But I'm quite disappointed in the quality of materials and work that Duke has utilized to access their easement on my property. Can you please help with these things?

We live at 806 W. 4th St., in Bloomington. Today, Tuesday, July 10 was our normal trash pick-up day, and also the day for yard waste pickup, according to Bloomington Sanitation's "yard waste collection schedule." We have two 35 gallon bins filled with yard waste waiting at the curb in front of our house. They are properly packaged, and under the 40 pound limit. While our garbage and recycle bins were collected, these yard waste bins were ignored, (although they have been collected on past dates) No note was left by the Sanitation Dept. workers. We appreciate this service, and don't mind the collection fee, but we were missed today.
