Bloomington Police Department Incident Reporting https://bloomington.in.gov/incidents/incidentEdit/9344 I worked on a victim report since 2022-10-17 about 3pm until 2022-10-18 about 2am. I encountered one crazy bug after another. I asked for help, and did get an alternate link way to file from Officer Wells, so I'll have to use it. The last straw was when entering the victim info, the software kept erasing the required birthdate, and there was a blank pink error message. Since no one could use software which does that, the problem must be that I have an old computer with Windows XP. (But, but, browser upgrades are free! Hm, for some reason no one will buy me a new computer on which to put those free browsers.)

N Summit St, Bloomington, IN 47404, USA

Case Date:
10/18/2022

There is a homeless camp developing in the woods on North Summit Street, between W 11th St and W Cottage Grove Ave. We live right next door on W Cottage Grove Ave. There are mountains of trash accumulating, used syringes on the ground, broken glass, yelling and screaming at all hours of the day and night, people loitering in the middle of the street so people can't get through, people changing in the street, broken glass, and numerous inoperable vehicles taking up the entire street that some are living in, in addition to the tents. I understand this may be private property, but given that we got a fine simply for our trash bin accidentally being outside an extra day, there has to be something that can be done. We will continue to report it and report it until it is handled effectively. I do not feel safe or comfortable going to and from my house or walking my dogs, and there are several children that live in this vicinity. The Boys and Girls Club and Middle School are right down the road. I know the homeless issue is rampant in Bloomington and there were two recent homeless campsite evictions. In the news, one of the homeless men interviewed said they were just going to move further down the B-Line. Well, here they are. This isn't safe or sanitary and is disturbing the peace of mind of the hardworking individuals who actually live here.

Trails

1508 S Hathaway CT

Case Date:
10/18/2022

Case #179848 is marked closed and labeled as resolved though it never was. Problem is still a problem and has been since originally reported. People traveling east bound are forced to use wrong side of trail if they don't want muddy shoes, slip or fall as they walk or run. Also, people on bikes or using strollers traveling east bound use wrong side of trail because of risks due to poor maintenance. Then, those traveling west bound, walking running or riding have routinely been forced off trail towards Moores Pike (very narrow grassy seperation there) or have a head on collision with those using wrong side of trail. Please remove silt, mud, gravel, etc. Please dig out a channel so it can drain properly in the future. Thank you.

Traffic Related Complaints

Case Date:
10/18/2022

I understand State intersections but please work with State to provide better intersection support at N. Smith and 10th and N. Smith and 3rd. Both are confusing/dangerous at present as people whip around others out of line when impatient on left turners, since there is no left turn lane, etc. Vision gets obstructed and otherwise is a safety concern.

Power in Park Ridge East is frequently out. Neighbors and the Association have flagged this unsuccessfully as an issue with Duke. Outages often take time for restoration beyond what would be expected. Basic power in neighborhoods should be a staple of good governance. I understand both the State and Duke are primary contacts for this, but can municipal governance please help flag this to Duke as a concern. Our household lost power yesterday and then again today (still out). Power reliability here has been less than anywhere I have lived, including internationally. Sentiment is similar among many other residents. As a sample from another resident's posted concerns yesterday: "I thought Duke did a lousy job of tree trimming this yea, and I'm beginning to think that was a correct observation. AC power in Park Ridge East is the least reliable of any place I've lived in the US and compares unfavorably to Ankara, Turkey, where I lived in the 1960s." Another poster from yesterday: "Agreed, power outages in PRE are a regular occurrence." I also had to contact Duke to correct dangerous power fluctuations in their line this year near my home, which was corrected after being flagged as a major fire hazard by my electronic monitoring company. Your advocacy for improvements would be appreciated and expected. Thank you.
