For the City arborist: there are two young trees growing side-by-side at the stop sign at 3rd and Fairview. One is a black walnut that I think should be cut down so the other one can grow to its full potential. They are so close it feels like they will just compete for space. We could have one very healthy street tree as opposed to two stunted ones. Thanks.
The grassy area in between the sidewalk & street in front of 521 W. Kirkwood has several sinkholes. It is hazardous for people waiting for the bus. Who is responsible for filling these in--the city or the property owner Tom Gallagher? If it's the city, which dept? Don't know of there are pipes under that area.Thanks.
Overgrown yard, hazardous material dumped in the yard from renovations. Nails, insulations and other materials
Abandon car, facing wrong way, expired registration
Low hanging limbs/branches touching power lines and hitting vehicles.
Yard growth is completely covering sidewalk entrance
Abandon house, grass has not been cut this year. Eyesore for the entire Prospect Hill Neighborhood.
Abandon home for years. High overgrowth of grass, weeds, shrubs, etc.
Hello - I am the homeowner at 102 South Waldron St. here in Bloomington. This past Friday my basement flooded an excessive amount (3 feet) due to water buildup on Waldron Street. This has happened 4 times over the past 6 years I have lived here because the water has nowhere to go due to the flat area at the bottom of Waldron Street. I am requesting a storm drain be installed on Waldron Street just North of my house and in front of 100 South Waldron Street. My neighbors basement has also been severely flooded over the years due to water buildup from the street - the homeowners name is Simon Ladd. We both have sub pumps in our basements (I actually have 2) and it still doesn’t solve the flooding issue. I have spoken to Mr. Ladd and we both agree the best solution is for the city to install a storm drain. My number is 812-369-0765. I would love to meet with someone from engineering regarding this issue and show them exactly what’s going on with the water. Thank you, -Kyle Spears
Several vehicles parked in the yard. tons of trash and automotive parts. It looks like they are running a car repair shop in the yard. They live in an RV parked in the back. This has been going on for months. I know the city has received several complaints and are doing nothing about it. This whole scene is devaluing the properties in the neighborhood. What if this was happening next to the Mayors house? Extremely upset that this is still going on!
