Part 2 of my complaint (I thought I'd have more room to give details.) (1) Bloomington Transit bus driver Randy turned the corner into the Transit Center so fast I fell from the side seat to the floor and my bags fell from the seat too. I landed on my feet. Randy didn't say anything. When I was exiting, I said, "I fell - I could have gotten hurt!" and HE SAID NOTHING. Not an apology - NOTHING. He obviously didn't care. This happened months ago and was reported to Eli McCormick, Customer Service Manager, when it happened. (2) Since then Randy has made ridiculous complaints to me when I get on the bus - all these have been reported to Eli M and I've asked him to preserve the videos from those incidents. (3) Randy is getting more and more dangerous, and now swerves right at me in front of the main library on Kirkwood when he sees me there. He drives too fast and heads RIGHT AT ME! No other driver in town is doing this, nor has done this, in the 3 1/2 years I've lived here. I've seen him stop in the street and not even swerve right into the stopping lane when he doesn't see me and other passengers are waiting there. On January 31st, he drove at me fast and Eli said, "We've reviewed that video... you were on the curb, and we don't feel that's a problem." Eli said another manager analyzed him before that, and said he was going 18 miles an hour on approach. Other drivers have told me 10-15 mph is reasonable. On February 5 he aimed right for me and when I didn't move he wailed on the horn. When I got on, he said, "You're not supposed to stand in the street!" I said, "I wasn't in the street - I was in the parking lane - and YOU'RE not supposed to aim for people who are STANDING STILL!" I've told Eli to preserve this video and I have to request it at the City Legal Department. I filed Police Report #B1905058 with Officer Crider, Badge #1369 that night. Randy is dangerous, vindictive, childish, and a LIABILITY for Bloomington Transit and this city! I don't see why Eli M and that company don't understand that.

Traffic Related Complaints

501 A N Rogers ST

Case Date:

Someone has painted over the yellow curb on College Avenue (just north of the railroad bridge) with gray paint, allowing cars to park on the street in this area. It looks suspicious - can can you please check to see if this was done by the City or if it was just somebody trying to create an illegal parking area for themselves?

This Honda vehicle with California plates is parked on the property of Fairview United Methodist Church, 600 W. 6th Street. It probably belongs to the renter of the brick house in the background. I am a Trustee of FUMC and we would like to have the vehicle removed from our parking lot.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

605 N Fairview ST

Case Date:
3/2/2019

The small stub of West 10th Street that runs West from Fairview to another short street called Curve Street and runs for one block is a disgusting muddy mess. If you are not going to maintain this street why don't you dig it up and turn it into green space? During the recent rains the City storm water system was so backed up in this location that the entire area completely filled with water (causing water infiltration into the basement of the house I own at 605 North Fairview. The storm sewers are often blocked and the culvert at the bottom of the park is inadequate to handle the water that runs off Ernest Butler Park. The whole situaiton is a mess and largely caused by City mismanagement. Additionally, the City has repeatedly allowed Mr. Goodman to violate City rules and codes and directives and his mess and non-running cars adds to the mix of this mess--once again a case of City mismanagement. This horrible situation has persisted for years. As the owner of 605 N Fairview I am seriously considering hiring an attorney and taking formal legal action against the City for its inattention to its own rules. If the Goodman property were a rental property that I owned I would be getting a complaint notice every other day. Both Matt Murphy (who owns the commercial property which adjoins my house at 605 N Fairview) and I have invested significant money in keeping our properties nice and generally contributing to the uplift of the Near-Westside. Too bad the City is not helping us! My number is 812-322-2050 and I would be interested in hearing if anyone at the City has viewed the situation on this one block section of West 10th Street.
