ParkMobile is just awful. Could you please make it so 1) we can purchase a specific amount of time as you can in Indianapolis and other cities (several times I have forgotten to stop my parking and ended up paying for 12 hours and only parked for 30 minutes. You are stealing our money by doing this) and 2) we can pay with ApplePay

Blocked Street

Case Date:
2/24/2022

At 4219 Deckard Dr. in Eastern Heights, there is a small blue Mazda which daily is parked facing the wrong way in front of this house, despite a very wide and accessible driveway a few feet away. This parking causes MCCSC buses, City of Bloomington Snow and Salt trucks, and neighborhood traffic to dodge hazardously around this car on a regular basis. It would be a good thing if the owner could be advised and encouraged to park in a manner that does not inconvenience the rest of the community. Thank you.

1225 S Walnut ST

I moved into the new apartment complex at 1301 S Walnut St this past August. Until last week, there was ample parking available on Driscoll St. that tenants in my complex could use. Last week, though they painted the curb yellow (half of the block 100 E Driscoll and 1200 S Walnut), taking away 3 to 4 parking spaces. This was not communicated to myself or the other tenants in the building. If the building has been occupied since August, why is the street just now being painted? Myself and the other residents of my building are not happy that so much parking space has been taken away this late into out leases. The amount of space now marked as a no parking zone is excessive, causing major inconvenience for myself and the other people who park on Driscoll Street regularly. I just received a citation today for being parked partially in this area and I am very frustrated as I used to park there regularly with no issues.

I want to report officer 303gr for unprofessional conduct. Today (3/10/22), I drove to the Park Mobile parking area near the IU psychology building. I park here most days and never have issues whatsoever. The first time around, I parked my vehicle in a spot that was questionable as to whether it was allowed or not (due to a small portion of my car being in the yellow). I had my passenger get out and ask the parking enforcement officer, who happened to be doing his rounds, if the spot I parked in was okay. He said no because it was near a fire hydrant. Not a problem, I was willing to move. Before my passenger even got back to the car from asking him, he approached me and started asserting that I must move now and that I was illegally parked. I said I knew that because not even 10 seconds ago we asked you if parking here was okay. Then, I moved to a spot across the street and remained in my vehicle with the car running because I was waiting for someone who just got into their car to leave so I could park legally in a place without restrictions. He approached me and said that I had to pay to park here and I explained that I knew that, and would pay as soon as I moved to the spot across the street so I knew what zone I needed to mark on the Park Mobile App. He disregarded what I said, and continued to repeat “you need to pay” over and over again without listening to my reason as to why I hadn’t paid. This entire encounter only lasted about 2 minutes. As I was about to move my car to the spot that had opened up, the officer chose to stand in front of my vehicle, so that I couldn’t move my car, and write me a ticket for parking meter violation. I asked him for his name or badge number and he initially refused. I asked again and learned he was officer 303gr. I have attached a photo to prove that I was in my vehicle at the time of being issued a ticket and to show the officer blocking my car so that I couldn’t drive to a new spot. My Park Mobile account reflects my payment beginning at 9:39 am and the ticket shows it was also issued at 9:39 am. I have no problem paying for a parking ticket if I feel that I did something wrong, but in this case it felt as though the officer was just being rude and the way he conducted himself was very unprofessional. The citation number is 22203101457. Thank you.

Yard Waste

Case Date:
3/15/2022

Cars parked in the road, junk cars and junk falling into the road. People sleeping in cars. People dragging trash from all over town to this house and the one at the end of the road on North st. The trailer at the end of the road has taken up the round about that was once there and a little road to the left that was once there. Homeless and such walking through 656 North st yard between JB Salvage and wake up property that sits behind JB Salvage. People living back they're dragging trash back there. They have been asked to stop but they continue to do it. I have had several Nails in my tires because of them dragging junk up and down the road. We have called the city, parking enforcement, HAND, Fire chief because it has become a fire hazard. Something really needs to be done with these two properties. I'm pretty sure they are dealing drugs over there also. Once you leave Fountain Street and turn on Gray Street it's like you're in a whole new dimension I cannot believe the trash that's back here. That trash can there is fine. It's across the street where we have issues. They block the road with their traffic. There r so many issues!!!
