Parks & Playgrounds

Case Date:
10/7/2023

This is a thank you. I have recently noticed workers in Bryan Park playgrounds using a bucket and a spiked pole to pick up pieces trash. Such an improvement over using leafblowers. Please also answer this question: when workers are using leafblowers in the playgrounds, what is the reason? I have several times uReported my objections to that practice that stirs up dust, creates noise pollution, and fills the air with exhaust fumes. All that, it seemed to me, without any real purpose. But let me add: I have also noticed much less leafblowing recently. For that, THANKS!

The dwelling unit at 608 S Park Ave is managed by Elkins Apartments. The apartment is located above a storage garage that Elkins, in the past few years, renovated and began using for their maintenance storage and operations. The building itself is only on one electrical circuit, meaning the resident of the upstairs apartment is also paying for the electrical use of the maintenance operations below. I don’t have a great understanding of zoning laws, but I wanted to report this in case it was some kind of violation because it doesn’t seem right.

Parks & Playgrounds

1001 W 16th St, Bloomington, IN 47404, USA

Case Date:

coyotes rage through Crestmont Park and surrounding properties nightly. Some neighbors report seeing individual coyotes in their yards. One neighbor reports seeing a coyote jump a fence on W 16th and killed a cat. Feral cats have been eaten. Last night I heard what sounded like coyote vs fox killing. One neighbor claims that the coyotes live in a hole they dug by a ditch on W. 16th west of Lindbergh. I sympathize with all the creatures who have been displaced by huge complexes in the area, But these guys have got to go.

Sidewalk Requests

3951 E 10th St, Bloomington, IN 47408, USA

Case Date:

Sometimes, I use to walk back home. I use 10th street to reach my home, but there is a short section of 10th street from around 3951 E to Meadow Park that does not have a sidewalk. It is really dangerous to walk in the road because it is not a straight rode and drivers cannot see you.
