This alleyway is consistently being used to pile up trash. Boards with nails and jagged chunks of concrete left in alley often. I've requested these items be removed as neighbors use this alley, but renters are consistently trashing it. I pick up litter weekly, but wish they could be held accountable as this alley needs to be better maintained. Trash is dumped there, and indo my best to place it in the dumpster, but it continues to happen. This alley has been ignored for decades, and I wonder why it's not maintained by the city like the rest of the neighborhood alleys.
Human waste piling up. Lots of trash left for months. Behind the building is a mess from roofers including nails. Ally way retaining wall by 2nd street is falling into the ally.
Neighbor has accumulated two or more inoperable vehicles. They are becoming a nuisance and hazard for other passing motorist.
There is a large tree branch down across the street on Lincoln, just past the corner of Lincoln and Dixie on the left side of the road from the storm last week. The house across the street is a rental and I'm not sure the owner will do much to remove it, but it's in the street, just pushed to the side so cars can drive by. I'm hoping the city can come remove it. Thanks!
Trash and old furniture in dumpster area behind building 568 and by garage 1. While here, go around and check dumpsters throughout this complex. This problem occurs all the time and management fails to see that this needs to be addressed. Some tenants here are unwilling to dispose of trash properly and it's horrible that they're allowed to get by with trashing the property. Decent tenants are forced to live with this. Also, the board fences around the property have been broken off for months, most likely due to vandalism. It seems there are no plans to repair these eyesores.
Utility pole in Park Ridge East Park next to Morningside Dr is cracking at the base and leaning slightly. Looks likely to fall soon.
I was recently in Bloomington and saw the giant electric buses driving around. I wanted to point out that you could waste taxpayer money faster by just placing it directly into any toilet and depressing the flush lever.
Safety and Design Failure of Bicycle Storage Project at 900 North Lindbergh/Summit Courtyard I am writing to formally address the $87,000 bicycle storage project once again that this Commission approved and installed in our courtyard at 900 North Lindbergh. While the City has attempted to shift the burden of these units onto the Bloomington Housing Authority, the responsibility for the fundamental failure of this project lies with this Commission’s planning and design process. This project serves as a perfect example of why direct resident involvement is mandatory. You cannot plan for a community you do not talk to. It is not enough to post notices on social media; many of us are not on those platforms. By relying on digital-only 'outreach,' you effectively chose to exclude the very people who live here. If we had been asked, any one of us could have told you these units were redundant because we already have storage. Because they were unnecessary for residents, they have inevitably been claimed by non-residents for nefarious purposes. Furthermore, this Commission ignored the physical reality of the site. I submitted photos to uReport showing this courtyard flooding during construction, yet the project proceeded in a known flood plain. Beyond the engineering failure, the human cost is worse. Because you designed these without our input, you created an 'attractive nuisance.' These cubes are chest-high and completely opaque—they are hidden closets that security patrols cannot see into. From a cruiser, a guard cannot see behind, around, or inside them. This week, an unidentified male used that very cover to physically block the entrance to my apartment and harass my downstairs neighbor—an elderly man in a wheelchair who had just returned from a nursing home. I am 45 years old. I worked the hospitality jobs that keep this town running and rode a bike home after midnight for survival, not leisure. You have taken a tool for survival and turned it into an $87,000 hazard. The police and security cannot solve a design flaw. This Commission created this danger, and this Commission must now take the lead in fixing it. These units must be bolted shut or removed immediately. It is time to involve the residents directly and physically before another dime of public funds is wasted.
