I had a very bad experience on the Bloomington Transit today. At 4:04pm 13 Aug 12, I caught Bus # 0863 to downtown; I requested of the Driver at that time to contact the terminal if he was going to be late for the 4W Bus Heatherwood, which leaves at 4:10 approx. He waited till too late after we departed to contact the terminal and subsequently I missed by bus. I was forced to wait 1 more hour for another bus. I purchased a 30 day bus pass in hope that the City Transit system would be responsible and courteous professional drivers. I called 336-ride and spoke with Supv Anna. Now, I was upset of course but I at not item threatened her because I have a witness that will verify the words I spoke. I told her of my experience, she acted as if she was overwhelmed and unattached to my situation, she advised about a recent change BT made on their printed schedule that they are not responsible for certain conditions. That may be so but, they need to re-look at their system and re-work the routes and drive times to better serve the public. I have been riding the bus only for two months and I have had call and report Driver attitudes and wreckless driving behavior. The mayor needs to be advised of this so he can direct a inquiries into BTs lack of safety and good service the citizens of this "safe and civil city" I most likely will not ride a bus once I get my car back. One more issue. A young black women shared with he of an incident where a white driver would not open the door on the bus one and let her in. I have her name and phone number because she is of am ethnic background, she believes the city will not address her issue either. What is Bloomington becoming Mr Mayor!

student moving trash on front lawn at 1514 E Maxwell Lane corner of Mitchell for almost 2 weeks- presumably because of no stickers? Can the rental management be motivated to take care of the mess?? Thank you.

I would like to report a series of potholes in the west bound lanes of Covenantor Drive on the northside of the road near the wooded area just east of building containing dental offices, approximately the 3000 or 3100 east block on Covenantor. Please see the attached map and the approximate area is outlined in red It appears that these holes are caused by the many Bloomington Transit Buses that drive on this road and it also appears that these holes have been patched several times in the past. The holes are getting deeper. I hope that these series of holes can be patched properly before the first snow. Thanks.

The 500 block of West Kirkwood has a trash container fastened to the #3 bus stop sign on the south side of the street. Folks are good about using it to dispose of their trash. However, the bus stop on the north side of the street is without a trash container---so there's litter all over the grass, curb and sidewalk. I don't know who distributes or cleans these containers, but I'd like to see a trash container attached to the stop sign on the north side of the street in the 500 block of West Kirkwood. This area is part of the BEAD district and should be kept as clean as possible. Thank you! --Chris Paputsas

Watering Ban!! You've got to be kidding. The liberals strike again! Why not just restrict watering to the hours between 10PM and 6AM when the treatment plant is under-utilized anyway. Where do I send the bill for landscaping?

Dear City of Bloomington Staff, Thank you for your excellent service! Bloomington is very well-maintained and I feel very much at home here. I am a regular user of the Winslow Woods Park at 2120 S. Highland Ave. Just outside the tennis courts, there is a water fountain. I was wondering, is there a way you could install a hydration station there? They have them at my campus (Indiana University) and they provide clean, filtered water to students. If a hydration station is impractical, could a Brita Hydration System (http://www.britahydrationstation.com/) be an alternative? I drink regularly from the fountain and would very much appreciate a source of clean, filtered water there. Thank you very much, Olivia Lograsso

Since opening 10th Street after the construction I have seen two people drive into the on coming traffic lane because of lack of marking and a cluttered area due to construction still in progress. The most resent one I just witnessed almost caused an accident. With the addition of the median on 10th Street and the view on the Bypass being blocked by construction barrels this needs to be more clearly marked or someone could get hurt due to lack of signage or direction.
