Along with many others of tonight’s council meeting, the new council and administration need to consider the public feel toward the showers west expansion - we don’t want police presence at our city hall and farmers market and showers plaza or by the tech park. This idea that you will progressively change the police by combining certain positions with CFRD in showers is very optimistic but comes at a greater cost. Inclusivity, equity, and reality of the community’s pulse should be accounted for in such large impact decisions for current and future development. As discussed, real estate is an asset - don’t sell the 3rd street station, do buy showers west for city hall expansion, but the plans for BPD need reimagined. CBU is also not being included in this ‘all administration needs to be under one roof’ idea and they aren’t included as eligible for certain benefits either. This addition of weapons, ultimate safety threat to regular staff members, and overall change in feel should simply not happen for a move literally next door to city hall. Staff have not been included in any discussions - has a survey or other metric been obtained about 100+ employees feelings about police presence moving to their day to day workplace? How about the tech park that received a special zoning overlay? Inequities already exist in city hall regarding pay, benefits, etc (the data is public). Now you want to move the group next door that has higher wages, gets rent/house payment assistance to live in city limits, some with take home cars, and has better negotiation ability for wages and benefits? This is an interesting move that doesn’t consider your core staff that run the city day to day -and in case one hasn’t noticed, they’ve been leaving like a revolving door for better pay, benefits, and work hours. This was highlighted tonight regarding the mayors office - not just for administration change turnover. Based on budget presentation information discussed in October of most years, most staff do not live in the city and need to commute in - while that is likely due to inability to purchase or rent in city limits, this is never discussed by administration and HR as wage increases would be needed to resolve this problem. Please pass this information onto incoming administration and council. Discussion with non union staff is not occurring and they’re not being taken into account or even given a seat at the table. Typically even council only focuses on police and fire, likely because they have unions and feel they can more freely advocate for themselves. Please consider other perspectives of many individuals you might impact and how to move forward in these decisions. Thanks for your consideration in this matter.

Your homeless people problem within the city of Bloomington is out of control. It is ruining the city an it's image. Even Inpls TV news is bashing the city for it's pathetic attempt at dealing with the issue. People feel unsafe as do local students. Who gets the blame when something terrible does occur? The mayor's office has certainly known of this problem for quite some time now. It will be the mayor's office having to answer the questions of the victims whenever something does occur. Fix it. The people of Bloomington deserve better.

Has the mayor issued a Pride/LGBT proclamation for the month? I would assume so. Can you post the link where that can be found? For a town that touts diversity every chance it gets year after year I'm sad how little celebration I see of our queer demographic and the diversity within. Thank you for your support.

Quite a few people seem to be living under the bridge in tents, spilling out onto the adjacent sidewalk and blocking it. There are also tents behind the closed car wash near the downtown post office. I hope we find better homes for these individuals.

Who's running this city?? The parking ticket fees are outrageous...!!! $30 is a punitive money grab, not an appropriate parking ticket. If you want the stores downtown to stop shutting down, and you want visitors from out of town to enjoy this town as a tourist destination, stop charging exhorbitant fees to park and exhorbitant parking tickets if a meter goes slightly over time.... half the storefronts on the square are empty... maybe stop being penny wise and pound foolish, milking people who live here and want to shop downtown with outrageous parking tickets. I'm going to call the mayor's office about this as well.

Nathan Dahm is seeking to end asymmetric post cold war Chinese %10 import Chemical Psychological warfare. I hope the city is making note of the court cases and or pending up coming legislation. More so after city employee David Parkhurst responded to my petitions as unfounded stating such water treatments standards are harmless and there is no difference between Calcium v/s Sodium fluoride. But then again he is amoung the fools who supported Huston South Project 2,154 acres of herbicide in the water shed for Lake Monroe
