Fire the Police who did not arrest the men holding a man captive in the park. Clearly the man held against the tree had his civil rights violated but we all know this was really about hate and racism. Not a proud moment for Bloomington.
The issues the NPR officers at Lake Monroe I watched a horrifying hideous video of a black man pin to a tree by several white men, shouting racist slurs these men need to be arrested and should have been arrested at that moment when they were assaulting that man I will be writing to authorities over the NPR officers but I needed your department to see that this is a very very bad thing and those officers need to be removed from duty until further investigation, The men and women involved need to be arrested immediately for assault what were your officers thinking he was being assaulted and held against his will you guys have a huge problem this is not going to go away and you cannot sweep it under the rug everything has to change! If this is not your department please forward it to the department that it belongs and I thank you for your time
Why don't all bad sidewalks or poor people at least get to use the city sidewalk fund? I'm not sure how it works but doesn't seem many people get access. And the zones they talk about are years old. Pretty sure there was a recent study that has new zones. Parts of the east side have horribly deteriorated sidewalk infrastructure and is already too reliant on cars; they should be eligible too. Please talk to whoever does poor areas of town to confirm areas of eligibilty. This should be citwide.
The Winslow Marathon gas station: Only half of the customers were masks inside and the cashier wore a mask at her chin, not covering her mouth or nose, the whole time I was there this afternoon. Will include photos. Thanks so much for your time.
Buffalouie’s on Indiana has put signs on their parklet tables saying only their customers may use their tables. Is that allowed? It seems odd that they can take public property and say it’s only for them. Thank you.
When trying to use the Bloomington uReport mobile app (iOS), attempting to report a streetlight outage, the app says to report it to Duke Energy at "www.duke-energy.com/lightre..." and then cuts off. I had to google search instead to find where to submit a report to Duke. Also, it shouldn't matter whether Duke maintains the streetlights or not. Constituents should be able to report a streetlight being out to the City, and then the City takes care of reporting it to Duke.
Streetlight at the intersection of Berkley Court and Greenbriar is burned out.
The streets and sidewalks are very dark when the sun goes down. I am requesting street lamps are put in place to protect those walking home from campus or the bars. As the sun sets earlier, many students are leaving class or the library after dark. I also almost hit someone driving home who was crossing the street simply because I could not see them. I believe rates of reported instances would decrease simply due to being aware of our surrounding (people).
Disgraceful that this property has been allowed to destroy important habitat to replace it with a barren, sterile lawn
Street light doesn't come on
