Street & Traffic Signs

Bloomington City Hall

Case Date:
6/12/2020

Coming from E Second the STOP sign at the corner of High and Southdowns takes you by surprise because the shrubs on the right side of the street are sticking out quite far. Maybe they can be trimmed?

Street & Traffic Signs

2231 N Martha ST

Case Date:
6/12/2020

The "no parking" sign in front of this house has been removed (just the post remains). This is right in front of the house where the off-campus fraternity operated in violation of the city's zoning ordinance (which we reported but the city did nothing about), whose residents and guests habitually parked on the "no parking" side (which the city never enforced). Please replace the sign so the next tenants know they cannot park on that side of the street.

Line of Sight

702 1/2 N Fairview ST

Case Date:
6/12/2020

Greetings. Could someone please cut back the vegetation at the southwest corner of where 11th st. intercepts Fairview. It has blocked visibility from both directions and is causing a safety issue. There is also signage that is being hidden. Thank you kindly! Addendom: I am a pedestrian not a motorist. It has become unsafe for pedestrians at an intersection that is already dangerous due to motorists speeding from three directions. Thank you.

Drainage or Runoff

918 W 13th CT

Case Date:
6/12/2020

Hi. I just want to say that I really appreciate the Adopt-a-Drain program. I was told about it by a city worker named Kriste. Anyway, I've complained for years about the storm drains on Blair Avenue. They get clogged (mostly by grass clippings from people mowing) and then the rain doesn't drain well. For years I said, why doesn't the city clean these? I was annoyed about it because the water would carry seeds and dirt, which would collect in my gutter, and then the next thing I know I have to mow my gutter! lol! So for the past four years I've been cleaning out my gutter, muttering to myself about the drain, and then every now and then cleaning it out, too. When I heard about Adopt-a-Drain, I realized that I could handle that task for two drains on Blair Avenue that impact my yard. Kriste also taught me that the city has over 12,000 drains, far too many to handle without some help. So, now I know that I can help, and I'm glad to do it. Great program!

Water Utility Problems

916 W 4th ST

Case Date:
6/12/2020

MY NEIGHBOR JUST INFORMED ME OF WATER IN THE ALLEY THAT LOOKS LIKE ITS COMING FROM UNDER MY YARD AND RUNNING KIND OF FAST. HE SAID IT WAS THE THIRD TIME SEEING IT. I'M NOT SURE IF IT IS A BURST PIPE IN MY YARD OR ONE UNDER THE HOUSE. IT DOES MAKE SENSE This problem is still occurring. It only happens when I do laundry. Is there possibly a map of pipes so we could find which one is leaking?

708 N Oolitic Dr, Bloomington, IN 47404, USA

Case Date:
6/12/2020

Please note: Although the location says 708, the address has been changed to 748. This report is in regard to a dangerous city tree. I am currently building a house at 748 N. Oolitic. There is a city alley right-of-way that runs behind my property from West 12th to West 11th. Only part of this right-of-way is actually used as for vehicle traffic. From roughly my northern property lot to West 11th St, the right-of-way is trees and grass. Within this section, there is an Ash tree that is dying/dead. This tree is in a location where any limbs or the entire tree itself would fall on my brand new house, my fence, or the shed I will be having placed in my backyard. As you can imagine, this is of huge concern to me. I am hoping the city could remove this tree as quickly as possible before any damage occurs. Right now it can be as easily accessed as it ever will be because my shed is due for delivery in 7 to 8 weeks and the rest of my fence is due to be installed not soon after that. With the wind and storms this time of year, this tree scares me. Believe me, I would have dealt with this sooner, but the tree wasn't in this condition last year. I hope you can help me out asap. Thank you.

Several trees on the east side of property, inside Winslow Woods, are dead and potentially could cause damage to my deck and house. The trees are all on city property and need to be removed as soon as possible. This last wind storm a dead tree fell and many others are certain to come down soon. Please feel free to contact me for any further information. Thank you, Sheaghan McConnaughy 812-345-2729
