Parks & Playgrounds

Case Date:
7/8/2021

Bryan Park has nice horseshoe pits but there is no sand in the pits, which allows the horseshoes to land and mainly stay in place. The hard ground and a tree root or two causes a well placed throw to bounce 8-10 feet. It throws off the legitimacy of the game and is potentially hazardous when those throws bounce way beyond the pits (if passers by get too close). So some sand or sawdust in the pit boxes would be a great improvement at almost no cost.

Sewer Problems (Storm Sewers)

1105 S Washington ST

Case Date:
7/8/2021

The low area of this block (1100 South between Washington and Lincoln) is in the old alley and is first flooded by the overflowing ditch along Davis Street and then water continues to flow up from damage pipe clean outs even when water in the ditch has lowered. The water peaked at about 1 foot higher than shown in the attached picture. There is a storm sewer manhole behind this garage, but no inlets are nearby. Is sanitary sewer infiltration to blame for this? Would fixing the clean outs lead to backups inside homes?

403 E Laurelwood CT

Case Date:

Hi, I live at the end of a cul-de-sac and every week trash/recycling truck goes in reverse (direction of my yard) to complete turn. The back of truck has ran into my yard three times now over the last few months creating a huge divot. I work hard to keep my front yard looking nice. I didn’t complain the first two times. Instead I went out of my way to add dirt, grass seed, and straw. I am pretty fed up now. I would appreciate it if the city repairs damage and prevents this from happening again.

Trash

1105 E Regency DR

Case Date:
7/8/2021

Recently, when the trash collectors empty the trash from our trashcans they have been leaving the lid on the can open. invariably in will rain and require us to empty the can before putting it away. I've lived here 5 years and this has never happened. Our guys always do a great job collecting the trash. I think a new guy perhaps wasn't trained properly.

This is a follow up on ureport #176489 in regards to the street being striped for parking spaces. I wanted to include this picture of a vehicle that’s parallel parked but it’s supposed to be angle parking but since the city has neglected to mark parking spaces, this is what happens. This picture was took today.

Case Date:

A couple of weeks ago a tree/lanscaping company cut down a large tree between Meadow Park Apartments and 610 Flats on N. Smith Road; however, they never returned to clean up the pieces. I would apprecaite the tree actually being removed (and used for mulch or the like). Thank you.

City Performance

415 N College Ave, Bloomington, IN 47404, USA

Case Date:
7/7/2021

Is the city ever going to stripe this block on 6th street? The city paved this last year and never did stripe it. It would really help with parking. Many people not only double park but will parallel park on the south side which should be angle parking. I e reported this before and nothing is getting done.

Excessive Growth

Case Date:
7/7/2021

Field still not cut behind Best Buy. What is that, Longview and 5th maybe? Ordinance doesn't just apply to small residential yards. Other day still not cut by laser tag either.
