Traffic Calming maintenance request:
street markings and posts beside each traffic bump need refresh.
Streets: E. Longview, Morningside Drive, N. Glenwood west and east.
All traffic calming bumps need the striping repainted to mark the bump. All bumps need the poles and reflectors checked. Some poles missing, many reflectors damaged/missing.
This has caused a hazard for vehicles who do not see the bumps due to faded markings and the vehicles traveling too fast and potential damage to vehicles. The marking DID get refreshed this past summer on parts of Morningside, thanks!
Now we need similar action on E. Longview and the two Glenwood sections. I have submitted similar requests in the past but do not see them on file except for one for a missing post (2014).
Please followup as this area (E. Longview) is an important connector to the City bike paths that connect to the Polly Grimshaw trail.
Thank you - Park Ridge Neighborhood Association/Steve Akers

College Avenue, especially between 3rd and 1st streets are extremely rough. City streets shouldn't be as damaging as that strip of a main thoroughfare.

1. The backyard is littered with mountains of junk and trash and causing mosquitos to proliferate.
2. Engines and car parts are leaking oil into the soil. HAND went there before but the owners covered all their trash with a tarp to hide it. They have a lot of toxic material on this property.
3. A man and woman who were just convicted of methamphetamine moved their RV right next to my house and are leaving trash and junk everywhere. Can someone ask them to move this?

We are having issues with our neighbors at 1719 w. Gray street. They are offloading immense amounts of trash.
They took loads and massive piles of trash and covered it with a tarp. These things have been reported before but they keep trying to hide it and cover it up.
Also an RV has been moved onto the property and people are living in it, and it’s very unclean.

These residents have trash scattered everywhere on the property and they are burning all there trash in the back of the house. They are burning plastic containers because they produce methamphetamine and the entire neighborhood becomes infumed with toxic air. Can someone please I beg you, have the owner of this property make the tenants clean this mess up and stop burning trash in the back. We are becoming beyond frustrated with nobody from the city enforcing these people to stop these violations. Anything you can do we would greatly appreciate.

Streets in our neighborhood have not been paved in 6 years that we've lived here. Grandview had been paved when we first moved in in 2016 and the rest of the neighborhood is in disrepair with lots of pot holes/ gravelly cracks and generally needing an overhaul. When are we going to bubble to the top of the list. Hyde Park, Park Ridge East and Park Ridge have all been paved more than once in our 6 year term in bloomington. Why not Grandview Hills?

A private utility company cut a large hole in my driveway without permission. After removing that portion of my driveway they dug out what appears to be an area 3 feet deep and at least 2-3 feet wide just underneath my driveway. A piece of plywood was placed on top and is not secure. I’m not only afraid that someone will fall I. The hole, but also that an entire portion of my driveway will collapse into the ground. I have attempted to contact the private company (AT&T) and while they have opened a claim, I have yet to hear back from them in regards to this public safety concern and also how they plan to fix my driveway. My home sits on a very busy and trafficked corner in The Highlands. Lots of pets, small children, families walking all day. In addition, I can already see that area has shifted and sunk.

IU Packer trucks are having a hard time getting access to trash containers along 9th because cars are parking along the curb. The sidewalk was recently re-done but curbs have not been painted. Thanks Jill
