Homeless people are again living in People’s Park. They’re using drugs, fighting, leaving trash everywhere, screaming and yelling, urinating and defecating and have taken over most of the benches and tables. It also appears that they are sleeping there overnight. We bought ice cream across the street and expected to have a nice Sunday afternoon in the park for thirty minutes or so… we tried sitting on the steps of a business on the opposite side of Dunn Street but the shrubbery nearby was probably soaked in urine based on the stench. We simply left at that point….. No other Indiana city of the same size and population has a homeless population of 1 % of that of Bloomington and that is directly attributable to the fact that Bloomington attracts these people by virtue of feeding them and enabling them unlike anywhere else in Indiana. I’ve lived in and near Bloomington since 1974 and this has simply gotten totally out of hand.

The pedestrian signal on the northwest corner at the intersection of College and Kirkwoid does not show the white ok to cross figure when approaching from the east. I noticed this last weekend but forgot to report.

There are signs in this drain of the Monroe county govt parking lot. It is obvious that someone intentionally lifted this heavy inlet and placed trash and street sign in the way. This needs corrected immediately to fix stormwater flow here. How often are these cleaned out in this parking lot? There is so much debris and breaking apart asphalt that Monroe county is not maintaining. Also they cut down their trees and smoking continues too close to the building. How is this allowed?

This county government facility has so much dirt and debris that needs street sweep ran. Everything is going into storm system and being tracked out onto streets and causes damage.

IU Packer trucks are having a hard time getting access to trash containers along 9th because cars are parking along the curb. The sidewalk was recently re-done but curbs have not been painted. Thanks Jill

Just had a question. What are the cones at 3rd and N Smith for? Are improvements happening? Hope so. The new bike lanes are cool but N Smith is backing up more now with inability to turn easily. Thank you!

Multiple street lights are going out/flashing in the location provided. Rogers St between the BLine trail and 8th St has two bad lights. The first is close to the Cook building and the other is closer to the BLine Trail. The BLine Trail has one light that is directly back from the bad light by the Cook building which is by the back end of their parking lot by the trail. 8th and Rogers has a light out on the North West side of the intersection. 8th Street by the BLine trail, alongside the side of the cook building also has a light that is bad. Also, the new parking garage has a light in the top of the stairwell that flashes very brightly and if you are walking along the BLine trail as it passes over 8th Street it startles you and somewhat blinds your sight and I feel this is somewhat unsafe for pedestrians along the trail.
