4 bird scooters have been on our sidewalk and in our yard since I woke up this morning. Currently they are in the gutter: 701 S Highland. There are also scooters on the sidewalk, standing as well as fallen, along Ballantine, near 2nd (we saw about 3 locations right around there on our walk home). Thank you!
Will there be summer camps for 2019?
There are 4 scooters outside my house. Measuring from the point farthest inward on the sidewalk, they leave 31" of room between them and the curb; less near the ramp to the street. They were right along our yard. Last night I sent a note about the 4 from the previous day; it was sent at about 5 and was going to be looked in to that day. At 9 when I went to bed, they were still there.
Parking meter 7615 on Kirkwood had a coin stuck in it. The light was yellow, but it was the only open spot. I thought the 25 minutes remaining would be enough. When my order took longer than expected at Nick’s, I ran back out and was forced to use a credit card or risk a ticket. I didn’t need to pay for a full hour, nor did I want to pay the service fee when I had coins to use.
I had called on 11/9 and spoke with Beth we had paid our ticket with check number 5147 for $20 and it cleared our bank. The plate number is not ours my plate number is ABP 544 Mazda. She said that she was going to take care of this. Today I just received another letter please can this be taken care of.
The traffic light at the intersection of Moore’s Pike and Sare Rd seems to be off on timing. If you are on Moore’s pike heading east/west the light is Red for a long time.
First - thank you for how responsive the department has been to our observations about Park Ridge Park. We really appreciate it! Park Ridge has a density of plants in and around it and is a relatively small park. As such, the amount of debris that can accumulate on the park compared to its size is quite high. We have witnessed that this debris tends to remain over the winter and well into spring if it isn't removed. We have seen that this eventually causes problems as the debris prevents grass from overwintering well and regrowing in the spring. This leads to bare spots (especially since the park is pretty all sloped except for the build in structures) leading to erosion. The Parks Department has worked diligently to mitigate these erosion issues through sowing grass seed, putting down straw mats, etc. This has been effective at at least stopping the erosion. However, I wonder if these mitigation efforts will have to be repeated next spring given the amount of debris in park. I suggest removing the debris now to hopefully prevent future problems and accompanying efforts to fix those problems. Please let us know what you think and thanks again for your responsiveness and hard work at making Park Ridge and Bloomington a great place to live and work. Cheers, John
Parking meter 4THW206-B in zone 76112 on 4th St has a screen that is unreadable.
This pothole collects water drainage / ice at the end of the street and causes cars to get stuck in the winter.
The manhole cover for the sewer on W 7th Street close to Elm is not secured. I stepped on it and it moved under me and I almost fell in the hole.
