Scooter parked on sidewalk limiting sidewalk accessibility
Scooter parked on sidewalk limiting sidewalk accessibility
This image shows a scooter parked in violation of Bloomington's city code at on the southeast corner of 6th and Walnut (39.167492, -86.533461) at 2021-11-20 18:10:51 I believe this infraction is citable and finable under the city's ordinance. If no citation or fine is issued, I would like to be notified within a reasonable time with the specific reasons why the local law will not be enforced in this instance. Thanks.
Ridgefield IV neighborhood Bob Shaw is the developer. Bob tore out sidewalks august 2022 without city’s permission. Almost 2 yrs later and still no sidewalks. 3 residents with disabilities(one uses a scooter) along with multiple children in neighborhood. We need accessible sidewalks and for the city to go after Bob Shaw!
Knocked over Lime scooter blocking sidewalk on north side of Hunter Ave. near Eagleson Ave.
Bird scooter was left in the middle of the sidewalk by someone. While walking past it, my shin scraped against it leaving a large cut on my skin.
The Lime scooter is lying in the gulch that runs between our yard and Sheridan. The scooter has been there at least two days, and before that was standing alongside the road. (I've just deleted the photo, because my submission to you seems stuck and isn't getting through. Come out to see for yourself!)
The Lime scooter I wrote you about days ago is still in the ditch along the edge of our property along South Sheridan. All told, the scooter has been there for about a week, first standing along the side of the road, and then lying in the ditch. Please come take this away.
There are three water drains in the road on Pickwick, just east of the corner. They are all far below the new road surface. Please have someone come take a look. Think what it would be like to ride across them on a bike or scooter at speed after taking the long downhill leading to them. I don't know if they can be fixed now that the work is done. But please, please don't ever do this on any other roads.
The sidewalk on moores here is sloped dangerously towards a steep drop into a creek. It's not safe for wheelchair/mobility scooter/crutch users
I biked downtown this afternoon for a trip to the public library. Upon arrival I discovered that every space in the bike racks surrounding the library were taken by Veo scooters. Attempting to move a scooter to park my bike was extremely difficult, as the scooter wheels immediately locked up, and scooters are simply to heavy to lift and move. Allowing a private scooter company to completely monopolize all available bike parking around the public library is not acceptable. Why is this allowed? Could the rules around scooters in the city be reviewed and this specific issue addressed? To clarify, I don't believe users had parked the scooters here. It seems as if they were deployed and staged in these spots. Thank you.
