Street Lights

629 N Fairview ST

Case Date:
1/19/2022

In response to uReport case #178550, if the property owner has had to repeatedly paint over graffiti, then perhaps the built environment could be examined to see if any improvements could be made that would benefit the property owner as well as residents. A walk down that street at night reveals pitch black darkness. There is a light at the T intersection of Fairview and 11th, but the illumination does not reach around the bend in Fairview. The property has a light in their lot which actually causes the sidewalk on Fairview to be even darker in contrast. It has never felt safe as a pedestrian or cyclist but that can be remedied by personal use of lights. However, having the street illuminated could help to make it less hospitable for delinquent behavior as well as the wonderful bonus of increased safety for non-motorist travelers. Lastly, vehicles regularly speed down the decline on 11th, fail to stop at the stop sign, and continue around the bend on Fairview. I would think that increased illumination would be helpful to those motorists who are already driving recklessly. Thank you.

Business

629 N Fairview ST

Case Date:
1/19/2022

Can someone please look into the businesses that are operating out of 629 N. Fairview? Red Tire Taxi received a Rapid Response Fund loan of $12,000 in 2020 for being in the Bloomington Urban Enterprise Zone. I am in my third year of almost daily walking past that building at a wide variety of hours and have only seen a vehicle with a Red Tire Taxi sticker on it once and that was in the summer of 2019. There are two different tow truck company trucks in and out and the majority of the vehicles in their two lots are in some state of serious disrepair. The same vehicles with missing windows are there from when I first moved into this neighborhood in 2019. Is this a junk yard? If it is a junkyard, is there ordinance language around having fences around them? There are vehicles parked on grass in the back as well. If you look up the business registration for that address there is only one business listed and that is called Bloomington Extreme Auto (which is also the business used to perform the safety inspection on Red Tire Taxi's vehicles for the business license), and they were administratively dissolved in 2018. It is an unpleasant area to have a part of daily life, and seems illegitimate in at least one way, if not more. Please look into it. Thank you.

Trash

422 E 6th ST

Case Date:
1/21/2022

I’m having a serious issue with the garbage trucks that come every single more way too early for me to even ben up for that wakes up EVERYONE in my apartment. It’s actually getting out of hand. This wasn’t happening as much September-December. They used to come once a week and wake us up but NOW… They come EVERY morning and wakes us all up. I really don’t believe this is fair to anyone and think this needs to be changed to a later time for them to come. I don’t really care if it’s the scheduled time but it’s complete unfair that we have to be woken up from this dumpster pick up next to our building each morning. They yell, they take at least and hour and a half each time to complete what they have to do. It’s honestly absurd and I (and the rest of my roommates) can’t get woken up each morning from this. Please someone get back to me before I lose my absolute mind!!!!!!

Street Trees

700 N Washington ST

Case Date:
1/23/2022

This tree is going to fall over very soon. We would like to remove this tree as fast as possible. If the tree were to fall, it would hit the power line and cut off the power for the majority of the street. In addition, the cars parked on that street could also be damaged when the tree falls. I understand it is private property technically, but I feel like their landlord should allow this.
