The water is tasting like dirt like it did this time last year. Is it possible to treat the water sooner this year? We had to buy bottled water for two months last year because it tasted so bad. Thank you!
Over the weekend there was a situation at Kroger seminary square where a security officer tazed somebody. I am aware a business is responsible for their own property. However, the seminary square area and seminary square Kroger has become increasingly problematic. Kroger is a large tax paying/job creating business in Bloomington and as a patron of Kroger I feel that the city needs to take responsibility for creating the problems most notably around the Kroger Seminary Square. (Drug usage, public intoxication, public nudity, pan handeling, vandalism, stealing, littering, illegal trespassing, etc). All these criminal activities (being ignored bc city politics have told the police/prosecutors to ignore) in the surrounding areas are spreading unjustly into this downtown Kroger. The city needs to quit passing the blame and own up to the environment they have created. I urge city officials to crack down on these problems and come up with a real solution to fix these problems. Local business should not have to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a year on security bc you cannot provide a safe community!
recently my water has begun tasting like dirt/pond water like it did in the spring with heavy rain. It smells this way as well. I live in SE Bloomington in Hyde Park neighborhood and hear others are experiencing this as well. Thank you.

Within the last 24 hours, water has started to smell and taste strongly of dirt. No visual change to water, but unsure if it is safe to drink.
City council members get paid thousands to make decisions about the quality of life for the citizens of Bloomington and the employees who work for them. However, they do not consistently show up to do the work. This is unacceptable as all employees are required to show up to work or are fired, and given the current climate and time of year - the council is not raising pay consistent with inflation (only 5%?) but is hearing budgets to use funds in other ways? Very confused about the hypocriticism. You all should be keeping up with the adjacent county meetings also as they stated on record they expected to keep with inflation at 9.5%…. Yet funnily enough all the fees in town should be raised and yet both governments aren’t putting that money back into the pockets of the local economy by sticking at a much lower rate. If we are gonna keep paying council to not show up for work and just assert their opinions and vote for personal gain, then at least be fair and use funds for all employees.
Water on northwest side of town tastes like dirt. Kids said it's like that at Fairview elementary as well
Green acres Greenway improvement is awesome including the crossing to campus. Please replicate a crossing at Morningside and Smith and copy calming for park ridge east when you start next year. We're ready!
It was stolen sometime this week from my front porch.
