Street Lights
212 S Smith RD
- Case Date:
- 8/6/2020
Since the east/west light is staying green longer due to decreasing lanes with the lates improvements, trying to get through the intersection both North and South bound on Smith is very difficultZ. Please consider putting in left hand turn arrow and running left turn and thru traffic separatey in each direction for Smith road traffic. Thank you!
City Performance
121 S Smith RD
- Case Date:
- 8/8/2020
Submitted a report but didn't show up in the system? Someone is going to die, likely multiple, if changes aren't made to Smith and 3rd. New 3rd by the State is great but has caused something to change with the Smith traffic. Left turners are hesitating backing up traffic (no big deal) but they are hesitating because cars behind them are zipping around going straight while folks are trying to wait and turn. Meaning the folks can't turn safely, and when they do POW crashes like tonight at 7 pm happen. Please do a traffic study and coordinate with the State for immediate safety improvement. Please do not punt this to the State, but be involved, as Bloomingtonions are going to die; forget traffic, this is about safety. Ideally there needs to be a left turn green arrow only and then a straight signal but that may need lanes. So I don't know the solution, but cars zipping around hitting left turners, etc. is NOT sustainble.

Debris Removal (Sand, General Street Debris)
3508 E Park LN
- Case Date:
- 8/16/2020
The house at 3508 E Park Lane has not been inhabited since April or May. There are mounds of junk and trash on the side and in the front of the house. The front yard has been mowed once across the summer but the side yards and the back yard has not been mowed. We have seen an increase in the amount of mosquitos in our neighborhood this summer, it is possible that the back and side yards provide breeding grounds. I would like the city to send a representative to check on this property and require a clean-up. This is not helping us improve the overall value of the neighborhood.

Traffic Related Complaints
4531 E Sheffield DR
- Case Date:
- 4/22/2021
Dead end on east end of E. Sheffield Dr. Traffic is entering through a non driveway from wooded area creating potential traffic hazards. Trucks are removing the center diamond sign and driving into private property (not a city issue). Utilizing roadway improperly and potentially damaging city sign. Solution would be to erect a metal guard rail at the dead end to stop traffic entering through an unauthorized driveway in the city and lessen the traffic on the city street in this quiet neighborhood.
