Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
613 E 12th ST
- Case Date:
- 1/2/2024
At the NW corner of the intersection of 12th and Fess, there is a relatively new, ADA-compliant sidewalk/curb installation. There may be physical and/or legal reasons for having the center, raised concrete portion present, but it is not obvious and as a result is a trip hazard. We have tripped on it several times. There is a current project at the same intersection, so we were hoping that they could redo it or at least paint the section yellow so that it stands out. It is dangerous the way it is now.

Invasive plants (bush honeysuckle?)on NW corner of property along Cottage Grove have grown out so far that the sidewalk is almost unusable. A wheelchair could probably not easily navigate it without getting stuck in the grass of the ROW. Should be trimmed back to property line, at least.

The bushes alongside the east side of Fairview have grown out and over obscuring the 'no parking' sign. Over the past two years, there has been an increase in commercial vehicles (tree trimmers/landscapers) as well as delivery trucks thinking it is okay to park in front of a stop sign on a slight hill. This is obstructing the view of the intersection and creating a dangerous situation when vehicles are forced into oncoming traffic to pull around the stopped vehicle. Combine that with the reckless drivers who are speeding on 13th street, oftentimes taking the turn from 13th to go south on Fairview at very high speeds, and the result is a dangerous situation. Please improve the line of sight. Thank you.

Please assess this intersection (Fairview and 13th) at the top of a slight hill with a stop sign. The massive honeysuckle bush on the east side of Fairview obstructs view of stop sign until you are right up to the stop sign.
Additionally, when you are stopped at 13th st and looking east there are oftentimes vehicles parked in front of the residence and the view to the east is blocked. I don't know how the yellow painted curbs to prohibit parking near stop signs are determined but this intersection may need something to prevent vehicles from parking right up to the stop sign.
Thank you.
Blocked Street

I live at 627 N Monroe St Bloomington IN 47404. There is a truck that has been parked across the street from my door for weeks now. It showed up when the new fiber internet company was installing and they haven't been back for weeks now. I'm guessing it's theirs but I'm not positive. No one lives in the house it's parked next to. I do not have a driveway and I've been parking in front of my house for years now. With this parked there it is unsafe for me to park in my normal spot because traffic cannot get through safely. I also don't believe a truck like this should be allowed to just sit if they don't live in this neighborhood. I am forced to park farther down the street and this doesn't seem fair to me since I actually live here. Is there anything that can be done?
