This is my second year reporting this issue. My family purchased this home on a cul-de-sac 4 years ago. Last year we removed our mailbox and installed a retaining wall because of already existing poor driaining issues in our area and the city keeps piling snow on top of our property and now the wall. I called Sunday evening and the woman I spoke with said, "cul-de-sacs" were tricky and the guys were out there long hours and were working in bad conditions while being exhausted. But she would be sure to give Joe my address and he would look into my complaints." I called Sunday because the had packed up a huge amount once again on our wall and blocked off half of my driveway. I was then told if we could get in and out of our driveway this should not be an issue or an emergency. Understandable but if the job was successfully completed then first time you would not have to come back. I woke up Monday not surprised to see even more snow had been packed up to our ever growing pile. So my issues are where is all this water going? There is no drainage in this area and all this snow will cause hazardous conditions with melting and freezing and having nowhere to go. Why are you bringing all of the snow into our cul-de-sac? Why are you continuously putting snow on a stone wall where someone could get injured after I have now reported it three times? There are a ton of kids in our neighborhood and surrounding neighborhoods and kids like to jump in big piles of snow. I will not be held liable because the city of Bloomington will not listen to or work with its residents. Finally when you contact the city of Bloomington instead of working with you why do they always seem to retaliate against you and make the situation worse? This is what happened last year when the plow driver asked me how I suggested he plow with my "plow experience." I have many other picture but this shows the pile today and how large it is and how spread out the city left. If it snows anymore my neighbors might not be able to back out of their driveway. Is this acceptable??

I had filed a claim earlier asking Bloomington to stop pushing snow on my retaining wall and that you had only plowed half of my drive. A driver came back and plowed and broke our wall. I have tried to email because the closed the claim saying resolved, but as you can see now that the snow has melted a little this situation is clearly not resolved. We paid $4000.00 for this retaining wall. I have called, emailed, my husband has come to your office and this is now my second claim. Please help!!

The hill near the intersection of Curry Pike and 46 is treacherous. Only one (1) lane has been cleared in each direction. Every year, this road gets neglected in terms of snow removal, but it is highly trafficked at high speeds. Why is that?

1, upper left) Lincoln St., between 2nd and 3rd, entrance into police station parking lot, northwest corner, no ramp onto sidewalk, more than a two inch dropoff making it impossible to get a wheelchair onto it at all, even a power chair. Must go around the block or out into the street. Can it be smoothed down or asphalt added to make it beveled? 2, upper right) Just north of that northwest corner is sidewalk degradation that is hard to get around in a wheelchair. 3 lower left) Southwest corner, The sidewalk is raised above a 1/2" (ADA says less) making it hard for a manual wheelchair to get over it. Must go around the block or out into the street. Can it be smoothed down or asphalt added to make it beveled? 4 lower right) just north of the northwest corner is a sidewalk leading to the back entrance of the police station that has some sidewalk degradation that makes it difficult to get a wheelchair over this.

This section of sidewalk close to 3016 E. Daniel St. in Kensington has been lifted by several inches likely due to a tree root below. Recently witnessed an individual in a wheelchair who had been at Schmalz Park almost tip over as she attempted to roll across it. It is very unsafe and will most certainly cause someone to have an accident if not addressed. It is hard to tell from the photo how bad this section truly is, must be seen in person.

The resident at 3030 86th st Bloomington always parks his car halfway in the street. Currently the snow plows can not clear the area and it’s at an already dangerous intersection. Please endorse parking requirements with him to ensure safety for all.

Fourth Street sidewalks and street pavement conditions between Washington and Rogers Streets (and perhaps further). The roadway is littered with potholes, cracks, undulations, bumps and is generally in poor condition (all of this precedes any activity around the fourth street garage, serendipity construction and Vectren pipe or line modifications). The roadway and sidewalk are not suited for cars, bikes, scooters, power chairs nor for the emergency vehicles, school buses and city transit buses that utilize it. Pretty much the same for the sidewalks.
