A resident let me know a street sign has never worked: The "your speed" light is on West Countryside Lane. Turn right off Rockport onto Countryside. Follow Countryside up the hill toward Summit Elementary School which is on the right hand side. Before the school, also on the right, is a light that flashes before school starts and end. After the school light, about 10 to 15 ft ahead, is the "your Speed" light. And then the school.
This is in regards to the storm drain on the street in front of 1310 South lincoln.. When ever I walk past that drain there is a strong raw sewage smell coming from it.. This has gone on for years and I think it is time we looked into it. I live two houses south, at 1314 South Lincoln..
This morning (1/19/21) our water heater broke and we had to have an emergency water shut off. Our water heater was fixed by 10am and I called to have our water turned back on. I was PROMISED that a technician would be by before 6pm to turn our water back on. No one arrived so I called the office and received a very rude response when I called to check if someone was still coming. I was told we would just have to be serviced the next day, even though I was told I would be serviced on the 19th and never was. This is a true inconvenience and we received an incredibly rude response.
Across the street from 711 N. Grandview Dr. a streetlight is out. It is on the corner of Grandview Dr. and Kerry Dr.
The huge stone marker describing the history of McDoel is gone. This was funded by a grant from HAND in 1999. It sat on park property. Someone stole it, and it was too heavy for one person to lift.
I have some concern with Macy's leaving the mall and being such a large store. With being next to another huge empty box store (Kmart) and also Campus Costume was in a larger building that closed. Do you know if the mall has plans to put a new tenant in? Bloomington East Side is for whatever reason sometimes said to be economically well, but that's not a guarantee to stay healthy. If the City can monitor these vacancies for both safety and economic reasons, that'd be much appreciated! Thank you!
Pothole in the 300 block of E First Street, across from house 320. I cannot read the house number where the pothole is in front of, but it is a house with a realtor sign in the front yard.
I recently noticed a sign up on the fence of the tennis courts at Sherwood Oaks park, stating they are to be used for tennis only. No exceptions. No soccer, no dogs, no skateboards. Dogs, I understand. If they eliminate on the court- what a mess. Skateboards I understand- they could damage the court surface. But I do not think there is any justification telling my sons they can’t play soccer *tennis* at those courts. My 18 year old has loved playing soccer tennis with his brother or a friend, a couple times a year, since he was about 10 years old. The soccer ball won’t damage the court surface. They are taught by their travel coaches to play soccer tennis as a fun way to improve their ball skills. There is no reason why my family does not have the right to use that court for tennis, just as much a anyone else, provided we are respectful and do not take up too much time (using it for an hour a few times a year I think is very reasonable.). We just happen to use a soccer ball instead of a tennis ball. People with dogs can go to one of the city’s dog parks. People with skateboards can go to one of the city’s skate parks. Where exactly are my son supposed to go to play soccer tennis now? This is a ridiculous exclusion, and can’t be justified.
College Movers sign in the grass under the YIELD sign at the newly reconstructed AMC corner of Sare Rd, Moores Pike, College Mall Rd.
'Music Lessons' sign still is under the 'End Construction' and near the 'Roundabout Ahead' sign on the right hand side if you are coming from the intersection of Sare Rd and Moores Pike.
