While the abandoned home just north of my building has been boarded up by the property owner, the homeless are now entering the home by using the back porch stair/deck railing and hoisting themselves to the roof deck above and then entering through the sliding door there. I caught one popping their head up to see who pulled up yesterday morning, noticed that I saw him and then he ducked down below the windows. Windows are being covered up and doors are propped open on the front/back to allow a nice stream of air throughout to what seems to be the entire upstairs. The inability of the property owner to secure the ENTIRE home from entry by homeless is frustrating and should be taken seriously by the property owner because of the safety concerns that these instances create for myself, my family, my customers and many other citizens of Bloomington that are visiting Chocolate Moose, Bedrak and apartments near this location. Please advise on how this will be handled. Thank you.

On the North loop side of the lake, there are those steps going up to the dam from what used to be the old dog park. Yesterday I nearly fell when I stepped on a loose step, the fourth one down from the top. The nails are barely in and the wood can tip out of place as you step on it.

The water is so terrible tasting and smelling that my family cannot drink it! We were forced to buy water. How long will this last? The foul smell and taste happens nearly every year. With CBU being the only source of potable water in Bloomington, there is no alternative! We are having to spend our limited resources to get drinkable water. We should at least get a decrease in water charges if CBU is unable to correct the issue permanently.

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.
