Car Parking in the alley and blocking the alley. White Volkswagen
One of the people that lives on this street has 4 cars parked bumper to bumper - obviously not using any of the cars. These 4 cars (one car, two SUVs, and a truck) are taking up lots of street parking that could be utilized by other people around this street. Although street parking is free on South Washington, these 4 cars are owned by one person and are never moved. If they were utilized more often, I wouldn't have complaints. It is obvious that someone has said something to the owner of these cars because they were spread out on the street a few weeks ago and they are now parked bumper to bumper. I am not sure if anything can be done about this, but I feel that is it unfair to take up 4 parking spots when parking is limited in Bloomington. Picture is not uploading.
There are cars parked in the alley behind 1000 and 1002 East Atwater on a daily basis. This makes it difficult for trash truck to remove bins. Trash overflowing into the alley and street does not get picked up.
There is a white car that has been parked illegally for days, facing the wrong direction in the street. This has almost caused a few bicycle and pedestrian accidents.
Car is using public sidewalk for parking.
Two bedroom home with 6 & 7 vehicles parked all around and on the street and in neighbors driveways. Sometimes you can barely get down the road.
Cars parked blocking Dodds
I am routinely seeing cars parked in front of the fire hydrant at 525 E. University St. Twice I've called the BPD to report it (other times I've left notes on cars or spoken directly to the car owners) and twice I've watched BPD drive by and do nothing. Each time BPD drove by about 10 minutes after my call which makes me think they got the call and just chose not to take action. In the very least the yellow paint in front of the fire hydrant needs to be redone, as it is very faint. I think it would be helpful if they painted the fire hydrant as well.
There is a no parking sign on the north bound side of Madison as you approach the stop sign at Dodds. A vehicle is regularly parked at the house on the southeast corner blocking over half of the north bound lane approaching the stop sign.
