Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

2487 S Brittany LN

Case Date:
9/1/2020

The sidewalk contruction on E Winslow Rd has been going on since winter. The project has more says with no one working on it than working on it. today I saw only 4 men on the whole project and none of them were doing any work at 11 AM. Lots of road projects in Bloomington are started and then left abandoned for months. As a resident I don't like this. If they start something they ought to work on it till finished then move on. Im frustrated with the disruption that has been going on for 7 months for a very small project.

There's a precarious dropoff (7-8') into the drainage creek just a few feet away (east) from the sidewalk on RCA Park Drive just north of Countryside, and a few yards into Susie Street. A barrier of some sort to provide added safety would be advisable. Thanks!

Temporary Signage w/o permit

813 W Kirkwood AVE

Case Date:
10/14/2020

There is a sign advertising an AirBnB rental attached to a tree on the property at 813 Kirkwood Ave. The tree is one of two on either side of the alley next to the property, and is located on the berm between the street and the sidewalk, and so appears to be in the city's Right of Way. As far as I understand it, this signage is in violation of the Bloomington Municipal Code, Title 12 (Streets, Sidewalks, and Storm Drains), Chapter 24.080 (Trees and Flora), Ord. 08-06 § 2 (part), 2008) - Prohibited actions, which states "(2) No person shall do any of the following to trees subject to these provisions: (b) Attach any wires, nails, chains, cables, advertising posters or any other contrivance" I would appreciate it if the city removed this sign and prevented such actions by the landlord in the future.

On Grimes Lane, in the 700 block, between Woodlawn and Henderson, the street is so dirty and full of leaves, other debris, that 3-foot high weeds are growing in the crevice between the curb and sidewalk. It's very unsightly.

A huge sidewalk is being put in on the west side of Sare. It seems like Sare is now too narrow and ripe for traffic accidents.

Sidewalk Requests

17th & Kinser Pike, Bloomington, IN 47404, USA

Case Date:
12/23/2020

Please put in crosswalks here. This is a dangerous intersection and there is a lot of foot traffic here. I had to jump out of the way of a car that came within a few inches of hitting me when I was crossing when I had right-of-way. Also please extend the sidewalk north of here on the west side of Kinser Pike; it stops at the Midas property line and people have to cross to the east side of Kinser for a sidewalk or they walk along the road or in people's yards.

Debris Removal

1519 S Andrew CIR

Case Date:
1/4/2022

Unclear if this is the right address and the for sale sign just recently disappeared. However, due to heavy rains, this empty lot has several “trees” (overgrown weeds?) that have started to block the sidewalk and also fall towards the neighboring houses/fences. Needs cleared out badly to avoid injuring the people and pets using the sidewalks if one suddenly falls. Contacted realtor a couple months back to notify lot owner and she indicated she would but no action has occurred to remedy the increasingly dangerous situation.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

308 W 4th ST

Case Date:
3/9/2023

Hello! I work at WonderLab Science Museum. We were wondering what would be needed to improve a curb that is on the west side of our building in the front. It goes into an alley that school buses use. Bus drives have a very difficult time getting in without hitting the curb. This curb also has an accessibility ramp that does not line up with the rest of the side walk on 4th street going west (due to the entrance to the parking garage of the neighboring residence). The curb cut is currently closer to the alley way than on the corner of the sidewalk. We would like the ramp to moved to the corner of the curb for accessibility and bus movement. An oversized cut on that corner would be ideal. Thank you!
