Twice, this morning (3/25) and yesterday morning (3/24) there have been TWO workers in the cab of a city pick-up parked in the roundabout in Park Ridge. Yesterday they were waiting to mow and today they were putting yellow tape around the shelter. I appreciate the work, but do you really want two people riding around together in a city vehicle clearly not able to engage in social distancing? Why not have them drive separately? Or work separately? Neither job seemed like it absolutely had to have 2 people. If the city wants citizens to take the rules seriously, we should see city employees doing the same. And your city employees doing this type of work should be valued in the same way as your city employees who are working from home doing "higher level" work. Thank you!

Is the City intending to abolish the police department? They are having official speakers at the rally with the official position to abolish police. Totally for ending police brutality, changing policing, minimizing policing, etc. But is Bloomington s intent to get rid of local police? That is concerning if so. I'd love to support a rally or effort the City is involved in to support black lives that does not take that position.

This isn't ok. Why is the City being silent on LGBT issues? BLM was just painted over a mural that was LGBT inclusive. BLM is true and good, but vandalizing a mural that shows the breadth of minority diversity in Bloomington is not. What about disability? The Asian community? Please keep doing good work for Black lives, and frankly even do better work for Black lives, but please please know there are many more of us that also need the City to step up its game.

Comment concerning public input on projects and surveys Greetings! I was wondering if it would be possible to have a page on the city's site that conglomerates all public input for surveys and city projects? During 2020 there were/are several surveys (MPTO, Climate change, etc.) and projects for public input (hospital site, 7-line, etc.). My thought is that it would be convenient for the public if there was a link on "https://bloomington.in.gov" web page that links to a web page that has all active surveys and city projects that are taking public input. Thank you for your time, Joe Neukam

Fireworks every night for a week is insane, and dangerous. Please move to one or maybe try nights a year. For those who still have to work this is very disrupting.

Please please make masks mandatory or demand the health department do so. I'm not sure who has authority on that. But 100 people at Switchyard Park tonight at baseketball court crowded without masks. Maybe 50% at stores, at best, wearing masks. This isn't enough to prevent deaths. We must do better and guidance and hash tags aren't enough. Workers, even city workers, are up close and personal without and we are terrified of what will happen when students come back. We've been lucky, other than the one nursing home, but that can change in an instant once an outbreak comes. Now is the time for decisive leadership. Please make this moment the right one for Bloomington.

Mayor, can you please do something about the empty big box Kmart on the east side? We shouldn't have a vacant store and lot for so many years. It underutilizes land, is a blight, and it could be so many great things. A hotel, affordable housing, restaurants, a small park, ideally all of the above. There is so much attention paid to the old hospital, Switchyard, and other areas, but how about this massive piece of concrete? Please put some resources into it. Thank you.
