Recycling
1408 W Kirkwood AVE
- Case Date:
- 10/20/2020
This is like the third time the trash men have just straight refused to empty my recycling, and they also leave debris in my trash can as well. I don't have any inappropriate items in the recycling, it's aluminum cans and flattened cardboard. They didn't leave any kind of notice. Just uncollected trash. I feel like this just incentivizes me dumping everything in my trash since at least that way it will get collected.

Woman living in an RV in the back yard is operating an open air cat kennel without a permit. She also provides food, water or shelter to a colony of feral cats without being registered with the City of Bloomington Animal Care and Control Department or its designee. There are 3 walk in cages housing cats in the back yard. I have a video illustrating this if you will contact me I can share it. I am an Environmental Health Specialist with the Monroe County Health Department.

Temporary Signage w/o permit
813 W Kirkwood AVE
- Case Date:
- 10/14/2020
There is a sign advertising an AirBnB rental attached to a tree on the property at 813 Kirkwood Ave. The tree is one of two on either side of the alley next to the property, and is located on the berm between the street and the sidewalk, and so appears to be in the city's Right of Way. As far as I understand it, this signage is in violation of the Bloomington Municipal Code, Title 12 (Streets, Sidewalks, and Storm Drains), Chapter 24.080 (Trees and Flora), Ord. 08-06 ยง 2 (part), 2008) - Prohibited actions, which states "(2) No person shall do any of the following to trees subject to these provisions:
(b) Attach any wires, nails, chains, cables, advertising posters or any other contrivance"
I would appreciate it if the city removed this sign and prevented such actions by the landlord in the future.
Parks & Playgrounds
510 E Lakewood DR
- Case Date:
- 10/12/2020
A fitness organization called Bloomington United for Fitness is holding an exercise class in Olcott Park. I appreciate the need for outdoor space, however, they are using the paved trail for stationary exercises. Since these occur in one relatively narrow space, it is not possible to socially distance and because they are exercising, they are not wearing masks. Would it be possible to ask them to move to an area with more space in the park such as an open field not next to the path?

Vomit and garbage. I'd like to know who to talk to about the loud disgusting drinking parties that happen nightly at a children's playground. Calling in the police repeatedly hasn't stopped it.
Debris Removal (Sand, General Street Debris)

- Case Date:
- 10/10/2020
Large limb and couple smaller limbs broke off and fell from city tree on south edge of my property at 1508 W. 11th St. I pulled them back so it would no longer block the sidewalk and be out of the road, but they need to be sawed up and removed. Also, it looks like the tree could use some pruning of other dead limbs to help prevent future issues. Your call on that, obviously. Thank you.
