Late last month I made arrangements to have the city sanitation service pick up two old dehumidifiers this morning. Unfortunately when I got up this morning to set them out, I discovered I had no garbage stickers. (I put my garbage can out only about once every three months so I hadn't noticed). I deeply regret having made this mistake, and hope you will forgive me. I will call the sanitation office to reschedule a pickup in August or September. Thank you.

Hi - I feel like the city needs to issue a warning to cyclists to take extra precautions when locking up their bike. On Monday around 11am, my $1200 bike was stripped of all of its parts that were not locked to the bike rack. This happened right outside my office in a somewhat busy parking lot, in downtown Bloomington, in broad daylight. From the security footage it took the person about 20 minutes. A police report was filed and the officer mentioned he'd seen similar cases recently. After posting about this on social media, I've now heard numerous cases of bikes either being stripped completely or partially during the day at various spots downtown over the past couple weeks. Had there been any media or warnings issued, I would have certainly brought my bike into my office, rather than risk losing most of it. I realize it's just a possession (and not a life) and can be replaced, but given that this seems to be a growing trend, a warning and increased awareness would be helpful.

This is in reference to uReport Case #161251. I was told to pick up my refund at the Morton St garage office. I've been there 3 or 4 times so far, and no one is ever in the office. Can my refund be mailed to me, or is there a better place to get it.
Thanks.

I am hoping to find a way to get a 24 hour animal clinic opened in Bloomington or at least a clinic or hospital that is open when the other vets are closed. The closest 24 hour pet hospital is in Indy and very expensive. I don't think emergency care for animals should have to cost so much. Some of us can't get emergency treatment because we don't have transportation and/or money to pay. My poor puppy just had to be put to sleep at the indyvet hospital and I feel if I would have been able to afford the $400 fee they wanted up front then she may have lived and I am certain she would have lived if there was a place in Bloomington that would have been able to see her. We need someplace for our babies to be taken care of outside of normal vet office hours.

I was walking my dog this morning on the trail at Winslow and High (I call it the goat farm, but am not sure if this is the correct name). There are signs all over about Pesticide use stating that it was applied on Wednesday and should be avoided until Saturday. Yesterday when I was walking my dog these signs were not posted yet and he (and I think many other neighborhood dogs) went in that area. I am concerned that the signs were not posted earlier as I would not have gone there to walk my dog. In the future could you post signs alerting that this will be done as well WHEN it is done?

i recently saw something terrible & now everytime i walk past there, it bothers me. at 2600 west 3rd street, on a small vacant office building, in big bold red plastic letters there's advertising affixed to 3 sides of the building "INJURED ? CALL KEN AT 1-800-CALLKEN" and to make it even worse it lights up at night! making it look even more tawdry & garish. even if he owns that vacant building there's a city code under "peace&safety" that states that ads cannot be affixed to buildings. please have him remove this ugly situation as soon as possible. he can be contacted at his huge building at the end of franklin street. thanks

Hello, I'm a part-time employee (SPEA fellow) at the City, in the Dept. of Planning & Transportation, and I have a few concerns about the part-time parking spots at Showers. First, is the part-time spots are incredibly far away from the main entrance to City Hall, adjacent to the Showers Red lot (in fact, as far away as you can possibly get while still staying in the Showers parking lot). Now, this isn't a problem for an able-bodied person like myself, but I had a friend who worked as an intern for the Controller's office this summer who has knee problems, making this walk excruciating for him. So bad was it that he usually parked at a meter, for an entire four hour shift, which meant that he essentially had to pay $4 to come to work everyday. My other issue with the part-time parking spaces is the incredible lack of them: there are only 5. Very rarely are less than 5 part-time workers working at one time, so it's really a crap shoot when I come to work (MWF) as to whether I can actually find a space. Many times I've also had to park at a meter. And today (11/29) the PT employee parking signs that designate which spaces are available to PT employees were removed, so some employees at the business end of Showers were parked in what should be PT spots, so there were even less spaces available than usual. I understand wanting to encourage walking/biking and public transit, but this isn't feasible for everyone, because rent is astronomical near Showers, especially to PT workers who don't get paid very much. I live pretty far out, so walking/biking is pretty much impossible, and public transit is highly inconvenient. I just wish the City was a little more inclusive of its part-time workers (especially those with disabilities), and the fact that only 5 parking spaces are available to us (a 5 minute walk from the entrance to City Hall, no doubt) is really disappointing and, in fact, a little insulting. I hope, in the renovation of parking happening in the FT section of the lot, that the City will consider adding some more PT spaces.

requesting feedback: Today is Monday Jan. 15,2018 and I cannot complete some of my personal errands due to weather conditions on the streets and sidewalks.First, my mail has been delayed since Saturday from the incoming snow storm. I noticed the sidewalks were not shoveled and some places were not salted nor were some of the streets were not plowed either. I am just bringing some of the few things to this office's attention because this delays all my daily personal errands like paying bills,etc. I look forward to hearing a positive feedback from this office. It is unfortunate that city employees cannot fulfill snow-plowing jobs when there are plenty of "homeless citizens" looking for work/employment that would have look forward to plowing the streets of Bloomington,Indiana. Thank you and my name is Carmelita Plains Bull and my mailing address is P.O. Box 95,Bloomington,Indiana 47402.
