Wright's Tree Service drove by sometime after midnight. My husband and the nice man who lives next to the house where the tree came down took care of the big limb in the street hours ago. Wright's Tree Service, when they finally came by, did NOTHING. They didn't even move the subsequent branches that had fallen (off the tree--trees that belong to the City!) onto the sidewalk. Seriously. They did NOTHING. Please save the taxpayers some money and don't pay Wright's for doing the work my husband and the neighbor did.

N/S alley between Washington, walnut, 10th and Cottage Grove. I know you are swamped, but when you get down to alley snow removal, would love to be on the list! Thank you!

The side of S. Park Avenue that lead up to the dead end does not get plowed or salted, making it extremely difficult to get out of our driveway, especially in this deep snow. This is very upsetting because I have now felt unsafe leaving my house due to this problem for the past 4 days. Unacceptable.

The sidewalk on N Lincoln between 15th and 16th has been completely torn up by tree roots. It’s unsafe and unusable for someone with a wheelchair or stroller.

At 704 N. Park Ridge Road Ms. Kaye Hill reports that the sidewalk in front of her house is sinking and is adjacent to a storm drain. Sidewalk sink is helping to collect water and contribute to some flooding from recent rains. There are green and orange paint marks on the sidewalk there and it may already be on the list for repair. Please contact Kaye and take a look at the site to determine what can be done and advise Kaye. Thank you.

I've lived in this neighborhood for over 20 years, and the city put a hazard sign on the sidewalk months/years ago, but nothing else has been done to correct the problem, which can be quite dangerous at night

Leaving Winslow Farms today at about 7:10 am and traveling toward Winslow Road, we saw a City pickup truck on the new multi-use path heading toward the high school. There was a jogger who obviously had to get off the path to allow him to pass. The truck was going at a relatively high rate of speed--probably as fast as the street speed limit. The street was not crowded, though it is being ground down and is bumpy. That sidewalk is often very busy--trucks have no business on that path at any time.

I was a bit disappointed with the dangerous traffic situation I had to navigate on Monday morning due to the City of Bloomington's careless job site. Grimes is being resurfaced it looks like. I was heading north on Dunn and came to the intersection with Grimes. There was no sign to indicate the road was closed. I could not go straight on Dunn across Grimes because a City dump truck and other vehicles had the road entirely blocked. I could not see traffic to the west on Grimes because a City street sweeper was parked right at the intersection blocking the view (and there was another piece of equipment behind it). I could just barely see the intersection at Grimes & Henderson to try to guess if traffic was coming from my east. The City had a big machine parked just east of Dunn on Grimes that had a dump truck backed up to it for tearing up the road surface. I made a decision to go for it, and turned out onto the wrong lane of traffic to go around the construction. There were 5 city employees in bright colors standing on the sidewalk chatting, just watching this traffic hazard. Other people were driving through trying to navigate the broken up road and the blocked streets, intersections, and egress without any assistance from the City employees on the job. This is dangerous. Just close the road! Or put some people in charge of directing traffic so we know when it is safe to proceed and not risk hitting another citizen or getting run over by the various machinery moving about. This was pretty ridiculous even by Bloomington standards (which, are actually quite low it turns out!).

There's been trash flung all over the sidewalk and area for weeks now. The sidewalk under and near the train underpass is also nasty and needs cleaning. Both sidewalk areas are also overgrown with plants
