There's a very aggressive red-winged blackbird along the trail at Miller-Showers Park across from the Pepsi trucks and First Insurance Group. This is the third year in a row that such a bird has disrupted this part of the trail. I saw a red-winged blackbird attack other folks as well at this same place last year. I'm not sure if there's anything that can be done, but I wanted to make sure the Parks Department was aware in case there is.

This neighbor consistently refuses to mow his lawn each year and will only mow it once in August. His weeds have now gotten well above 8 inches and are becoming a mosquito den. Thank you for the help.

Hi there. I wanted to first commend the parks department for putting their resources towards purchasing trees and having staff plant them in Schmalz Farm Park to help with the ecological restoration of the area. Projects like this are what make Bloomington such a great place to live!
However, I have also been informed that, due to the complaint of one individual about taking up space for children to play, these trees are to be removed next week. I believe that this is a grave mistake - there are plenty of other parts of the park for children to play, the fragile young trees will likely not recover from another transplant, and the hard work of all of the parks employees will be for naught.
I urge the parks department to reconsider this direction and leave the trees to prosper where they have been planted, helping to keep a Bloomington Park in great shape for years to come.

There is construction on the corner of 17th and Rogers. The construction company cut across the road and the gravel they put down has been reduced and there is a big bump. It's been like that for 2 weeks. If they could add more gravel it would be helpful until they complete a patch. Weddle Brothers is the construction company.

Drainage or Runoff
120 S Park Ridge RD
- Case Date:
- 5/20/2020
Water and debris continuously builds up on the west side of the street. The road slopes to the west side and there are no nearby stormwater drains. The closest drain is 1/2 block north on the opposite side of the street. This picture is directly in front of my house. The pavement at this site erodes due to all the standing water and debris and requires consistent patching. I have lived at this address for 16 years and this has been an ongoing problem. I have concerns this will only get worse as there is a new bus route starting in August which will be using this stretch of the road several times a day. I am told the road is to be resurfaced this summer however, without a proper drain system in place this will not resolve the problem. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
