Sidewalk on West side of Rogers just south of 11th Street covered in sand gravel still. You know, I really can't tell if they aren't clearing it or if the dust situation in their driveway is so bad that it refills immediately but there is still sand on the sidewalk every single time I am there and it's not just a little bit of sand. my good humor about this situation really evaporated when my kid fell last week. Anyways now there's a tarp too.

On west side of b line between kirkwood and sixth. This handrail goes up against the very edge of the b line, exactly at handlebar height for cyclists. This is a congested part of the b line where it is often necessary to ride at the very edge of the path. It presents a hazard to cyclists. Engineering standards as well as Bloomington City planning documents indicate there should be a foot and a half "shy zone" clear of obstructions at the edge of the path. At the city budget hearings a few months ago parks and rec director testified to the council that Parks and rec does follow engineering guidelines on the b line however I do not believe this handrail qualifies. Can we please get some safety.

West side of b line just south of sixth street. Planter blocking path, restricting effective width of b line to about six feet. The path was engineered to a ten foot width, and parks and rec director testified to council that b line conforms to engineering standards. Did an engineer sign off on this path width restriction right at its most congested point?

Side walk on the west side of Rogers just south of 11th Street. It is a temporary driveway for construction staging I think for parking garages. I don't know what to do. What do you want me to do? The walk has never been clear. There is always been sand. Today there is a quarter inch of sand. And those big rocks/barriers have been blocking the drive since Friday. So no cars have gone over it all weekend, but there has been sand left there all weekend also. Is this just how it's supposed to be? should I give up expecting a safe pedestrian environment for my children? I don't know what to do. Please tell me what to do. I can sweep it up and put it in a bucket if you need to demonstrate that there is a real volume of material -- I will probably be able to carry the bucket but I guarantee you it'll weigh several pounds. What should I do? This isn't my job. I just walk here to take my kids to fairview elementary

Just south of 11th on west side walk of rogers. Sand, mud, gravel on sidewalk. After my last ureport on dec 7, they cleaned it up!!! First time since i started reporting it. But here they went home for the day last night, installed the baricades, and left crud all over the sidewalk. Sorry toget in your business but i think its their job to proactively comply, not yours to remind them every day. Nor mine. It has been dirty so far every day this werk and today the weathering has again reached the point where tthe sandy spots are slick
