Excessive Growth
902 W Cascade AVE
- Case Date:

The house at 902 W Cascade Ave is a duplex and is to right of my property (which is 910 West Cascade Ave). It has been months since the yard has been mowed on the side next to my front yard. The weeds are over 8 inches tall, there is a fallen tree in the back, and a generally unkempt appearance to the whole duplex. Thank you.

West 3rd Street from S Rogers to Patterson is a narrow residential street. Lots of trucks use this street. W 3rd. St. is designated “neighborhood residential street” in the Bloomington Transportation Plan
which means “low speed and low volume”. There is a sign east of Rogers on 3rd. that says “No through trucks on 3rd St” but it is old and very faded.
New sign needed. Also it might be effective to have a sign at Jackson and 3rd also.
Thank you for considering this concern.

Trash bins left in neighborhood intersection for weeks and the trash or recycling isn’t being picked up. Bins are overflowing and the trash collectors are not picking it up on Tuesdays pickup. The owner of the bins at 1401 leaves them in the intersection full while trash and debris is blown around the neighborhood. The children report it smelling terrible and it looks awful.

Nuisance Lights
901 N Indiana AVE
- Case Date:
- 9/4/2024
The "Grab and Go" store has a couple very bright lights on the west side of the building that shine on other buildings and that make it difficult to see when walking east in that general area at night Can the store be asked to redirect and/or shade at least the brighter of the two so that light is cast only on their property and not the houses nearby? It seems like a form of trespass.
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
4001 E Morningside DR
- Case Date:
- 9/4/2024
The curbs and speed humps on E Morningside appear to have been abandoned after the installation contract was completed. The first ones near E Saratoga and others are overgrown with weeds. It's not a pleasing sight for making a first impression near the entry to the Park Ridge East neighborhood. Residents seem to have not accepted an involuntary expansion of their lawn maintenance responsibility into the right of way on a busy street.
Similar curbs near the park at the Park Ridge Road intersection are being maintained, maybe by city crews. Similar attention by the city for the other curb bump outs would be appreciated.
An alternate remedy would be to cover the area of the bump outs with stone or other low maintenance materials that would reduce the recurring cost of cutting grass and weeds.
A small tree planted in a bump out curb on the north side of E Morningside had its bark stripped off and branches broken last month, possibly by deer. Apparently trees were selected for planting without considering whether they have a natural resistance to deer. The tree had no protection from deer.
