I live next to Parkridge park, at 3429 E Longview Ave. The Park does not provide a parking space. Individual visitors are fine, but the problem is with groups. They park all along the cul de sac, leaving a small corridor to navigate the way in and out. I'm an elderly woman with a heart condition. I propose the following: define 2-3 parking slots nest to the Park. Post "No Parking" on the other side. Add an official, larger, parking space by the old Marsh store.

After removing invasive species yesterday with the city, I picked up about 90 pieces of trash, mostly beer cans along North Dunn between Clover and Lakewood. Would it be possible to post a sign that would address littering? Most of the litter was on the east side of the road.

There is a metal post with a sign on the train tracks right at the intersection of Indiana Ave and 13th St that looks very frail. In the past wind advisory situations we have had in the city, anytime the wind hit the post, that post sounded as if the wind could dislodged it violently from the base and the sign at the top could fly off into near-by buildings, it even sounded horribly loud as the sign does not seem to be securely attached to the post. When that happened I called 9-1-1 to let them know and asked them to contact whoever is in charge of the tracks for them to look into that by securing that post. However, nothing happened. Tonight, with the tornado watch and the very strong winds we are having, it's the same situation with the post. Because of that, I called the Indiana Railroad Company's emergency number and they said they would email someone but that that would take some time and they were not sure they would get to it that night since they were also in tornado watch.

The corner of Post Rd as you're approaching Staats on the right hand side is so overgrown with trees cars cannot be in the right lane. We walk to school with our daughter and have often had to get out of the way of traffic b/c this road is effectively 1 lane at the moment. 2 homes, the one at the corner of Staats and Post and the one at the corner of post and "Hollywood" both have shrubs/trees that impede traffic/walkers and make it even more dangerous than it should be. If the owners aren't willing to change this landscaping the city should have the ability to cut considering that the shrubs are covering no less than 3 ft into the street. This is dangerous for cars, walkers, and bike riders in the neighborhood. MUST BE ADDRESSED.

So I've talked to you guys before about this issue how you guys have the timing for the traffic lights set up and of course you know you guys basically said all their set correctly but here's the issue all over town and multiple times a day I have to travel various places in town for my job. And you guys have the signaling set up to where you come to a stop at one red light and it goes green and the very second you arrived the next stoplight doing the speed limit it turns red it's really bad on West 3rd Street but specifically the portion of town that I have to drive through half dozen times a day from Miller Street to 2nd Street you literally have to stop every single traffic light because you guys have set the traffic signaling to make you stop at the red light. Having lived a lot of different places this is something that's very unique to Bloomington you know I'm sure you're going to tell me that's the way it's supposed to be which in turn means that you just wanted to turn people from driving but it's straight bullshit on a busy road like that that northbound traffic or southbound traffic you guys have it set that way West 3rd Street you literally have people having to stop in the intersection because you guys want to play games!! Yeah it's funny because when I called the mayor's office they acknowledged that the timings were messed up but said they would defer to you people

There is a recurring problem at this intersection. Drivers heading west on 3rdSt/46 and turning south onto College Mall Rd routinely block the eastbound traffic on 3rd St by blocking the intersection after their turn light turns red. Tonight the intersection was blocked for the eastbound traffics entire green light. The Do Not Block the Intersection signs go unnoticed or unheeded. I’ve contacted the Mayors office before and my complaint was forwarded to someone who couldn’t/wouldn’t do anything to address the problem. I’ve contacted the Police Department who said it wasn’t a priority and they didn’t have the manpower to do anything even if it was a priority. My suggestion is to make the Do Not Block the Intersection signs more noticeable and to shorten the duration of the left turn signal for those turning south onto College Mall Rd from the westbound 3rd St lanes. Thank you.

N North street is a dead end road. The end of the road has taken over the turn around and the little road that was started and on Google maps, turning left. Behind that's black and white truck is where the road should be but there is a demo derby car sitting on a trailer there . It has been moved up and down the road and placed in different spots but this is where it is sitting now . There have been several other junk cars that sit there too . They have filled this property and the whole street with scrap metal, junk cars, doors, motors, broken lawnmowers and such. This has created an issue with the sanitation department not wanting to come down the street to gather trash and recycling and the City Post Office does not feel comfortable coming down this road because they have to back out. If this property was properly maintained there would be a turnaround and an additional Side Road. The squatters that are there have taken over everything and put a no trespassing sign up so that people can't even (right side of photo) turn around down there. My address is 656 N North st. Please help clean this area up. My family is new to this street and have already called HAND and the fire chief. It is a dangerous situation if someone were to need a fire truck or ambulance. The main street is still not marked properly also. The intersection of Fountain and gray is waiting for a street sign. My concern with that is my mother will need an ambulance and ambulance will not be able to find the address.

Three weeks ago, I was riding my bike west on 7th St in the bicycle lane as a car entered from Indiana Ave into the bike lane. I had to stop my bike and lift it over the curb to get around the car that was impeding both lanes of the bike lane. This is not my first experience with cars in the 7th St bike lane. Please install a post or bollard at the protected bicycle lane entrances to discourage cars from entering it. This is a simple, easy to install, and low cost solution. I don't understand why it wasn't installed in the first place.
