Hello, I live two doors down from the Banneker center. I have a request that the city, park the van either on the side street next to the center or in front of the center...I realize this is city parking and they have a right to park there. The staff park the van in front of my house and leave it there all weekend and they usually park the van directly in front of mine and my neighbor's house, while they have plenty of room on the west side of the building to park. Or possibly at the girls Club. They usually leave the van there all weekend . They usually park at at least 3 feet from the end of the yellow line. We can normally park three cars there. This effectively cuts off any accessible parking in front of my house and my neighbor's house. I don't mind the extra parking for the kids activities all during the week but this is the staff van. I know this is perfectly legal but on in the interest of good neighborhood relations I am making this request.
thank you,
Barbara Metz

Your homeless people problem within the city of Bloomington is out of control. It is ruining the city an it's image. Even Inpls TV news is bashing the city for it's pathetic attempt at dealing with the issue. People feel unsafe as do local students. Who gets the blame when something terrible does occur? The mayor's office has certainly known of this problem for quite some time now. It will be the mayor's office having to answer the questions of the victims whenever something does occur. Fix it. The people of Bloomington deserve better.

The graffiti on the west wall of the College Ave railroad trestle is OUT OF CONTROL. It must be painted over or removed ASAP. What happened to the policy of removing or painting over graffiti as soon as it is seen and reported? Our former mayor Tomi Allison instituted this policy and it works because the criminals know their defacement will be removed or painted over before it has it's intended gang communication or political statement effect.
College Ave is a street which gives a first impression to visitors, IU parents and students and countless others.
Railroad trestle walls (like the one on East 10th Street just past Union St. that I complained multiple times about) are prime targets for graffiti criminals (public and private defacement is against the law) and must be dealt with by the citizens and police being alert and reporting incidents of it.
