Excessive Growth
418 S Walnut ST

Overgrowth on property that used to be Players Pub is insane and has continued to grow along the line of trees directly behind my building. I was told that this line of trees belongs to the City of Bloomington and I'd like someone to look at cleaning both the Players Pub property and the tree line up. It's become unsightly and unsafe with the current homeless population using the area for shelter and drug use. Thank you.
Sewer Problems (Storm Sewers)
419 E Dodds ST

There are at least 3 steel culverts that have rusted through creating a sharp object hazard along the south side of E Dodds St along the 300, 400 and 500 block. My concern is there are children that play in this residential area and the rusted crevasses could act as a trap for small limbs of children or pets.
The culverts are corrugated steel and all seem to be suffering from rust fatigue along the top edge.
Thank you for the consideration of replacing these culverts.

Thank you Kathleen for updating ticket 175079.
This is a follow-up to your update. I do desire to remain anonymous on ureport system.
These storm sewers have long been functionally abandoned and really do not act as "ditches" anymore. In fact some of them seem to not have an inlet. It was not so much that that I though they should be "clean out" but more like the sharp metal hazard should be addressed. The exposed tops of at least three culverts have rusted through creating what I consider "sharp rusty hazards". Replacing those culverts (or repairing the rusty sections) is what I was thinking. Or maybe rotating them 180 degrees so the rusty part is down? My concern with the cleanout solution is the neighbors might not like the excavation unless the hazards are removed. I do not think anyone is complaining about the fact the culverts might not be doing much to handle water run off. Again I just walk my dog along Dodds and that is when I spotted the harzards. I do not live at these residences. Thank you again for the consideration.

City removed Vegetation along Graham Drive a few years back. Admitted caused increased storm drainage. Now that increased drainage has caused further erosion bringing even more drainage. Flow has become intense and dangerous. Flows through at least one yard where a small child lives. This run off is from streets, parking lots, etc. Too contaminated to continue....Please help

Street light on the NW corner of Woodlawn & Hunter is out. There are no other street lights on Woodlawn between Atwater & 2nd St even thought its sidewalks are heavily used by women leaving the campus in the dark to walk to the free parking lot east of Bryan Park. The dark sidewalk on the west side seems especially unsafe in the dark due to the large shrubbery that grows next to that sidewalk at several locations.
