No water.
We have noticed in the past week that there is an issue with the drinking water… we even changed our fridge filter because we thought it might be the issue. We don’t notice right from the tap, but when left for a long period of time or overnight, the water is undrinkable, tastes bitter and tastes and smells strongly like chlorine or a chlorine compound is in the water. We can’t find information anywhere about what has changed. We are considering getting bottled until then for consumption.
This is supposed to be a city park built for parents to take their children to be kids and have fun. I took my niece to the park the other day and found pills in one of the tunnels, needles in the bathroom and on the play area, powder on the ground in the water area (which the drugged up homeless said their buddy spilt his meth there). Then I found out that they are allowed to camp there. There are plenty of places for them to sleep and leave their remnants that isn’t in the path of innocent children. You’ve been mayor since 2016 and you know the homeless has become a bigger problem every year. We can’t go to a park in Bloomington without someone drugged up and laying across the tables, walking around cussing and threatening anyone walking by. Homeless at every stoplight claiming to be veterans. The parks are the worse and I will make sure that everyone hears what is going on at the parks and our Mayor is allowing this to go on. My comments involve the parks, restroom, picnic areas, playgrounds and water areas.
We have no water. Would like to know when our service will resume.
Construction crews were here on Tuesday and Wednesday working. This morning around 930 am, our water is not running out of the taps very well and the toilet refills really slowly. Everything had been working fine up until today.
A small hole has developed adjacent to a wider area in the pavement that street crews paved over after a water main break several years ago.
A water pipe break was repaired and patched earlier this year. There is a small hole cracking and sinking the pavement adjacent to the patch. There are concerns this hole could become larger as winter approaches.
The button for the dog water fountain is sticky. I've walked past it a couple times and water is trickling out of the lower bowl. If I push the button a couple times it gets unstuck and the water stops.
