When you write your letter to Bio-Life, you might also want to mention the sign in the middle of one of the Tapp Rd roundabouts.

NW corner of College Mall Road and Covenanter. This one is a bit unusual in that it has a wooden stake to hold the sign: We Buy Houses. Another one of the same sort is at the corner of the Five Guys restaurant and the entrance to the Kroger Parking lot.

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?

I was attacked by a goose while biking on the new Tapp Rd trail. It was pretty vicious and knocked me over. I broke my ankle and will likely need surgery. These geese are aggressive and are likely to also hurt others

I sent this on February 20th, and haven't heard from anyone.
Previous case: #166355
We are writing to you again because of two more accidents at this same corner (14th Street and Walnut Street). Danna Workman was assigned to this on October 13, 2018, then she assigned it to Adam Wason, who then assigned it to Terri Porter; however, we have been reporting this problem corner to the City for many years. On February 5, 2018 we heard from Andrew Cibor, Transportation and Traffic Engineer, who encouraged us to submit comments via a mapping tool. We submitted our comments on February 6, 2018, but as of yet have heard nothing.
On December 20, 2018 we wrote to you asking for a few traffic signs from 2nd Street to 17th Street on the Walnut corridor, but nothing has been done, and we have not received a response.
One of the last accidents hit our landscaped flower bed and took out our irrigation as well as our treated landscape wood to hold in the mulch and flowers. We had to replace the landscape wood, but will have to wait until Spring to replace the irrigation system there.
The other recent accident (February 16, 2019) took out another irrigation head, but worst yet, it took down the very large City street light with a light attached to it for our parking lot, which we pay Duke Energy for every month.
You have told us in years past that you are not seeing that many accidents reported to the City; however, if only one car is involved or even two, many times it goes unreported, and they fix their cars themselves, but our damage is left for us to repair.
Last year, you did install white posts on the west side of Walnut along with pedestrian lines on the street. However, that has done nothing to slow the traffic or stop accidents. I saw two young people on scooters yesterday trying to cross at that corner, and I was concerned for their safety, as the cars were speeding by without stopping for the pedestrians.
It was reported in the newspaper this morning that Mayor Hamilton is spending quite a lot of money to assess the trees in Bloomington. And, while that maybe needed, I feel the safety of the residents of Bloomington and their guests is needed more.
Please respond to us as soon as possible.
Kindest Regards,
Kathy Taylor
