This is a follow-up on my complaint from 8/18, #173408, regarding the noise from the work on the tennis courts. The piercing truck backing-up noise went on late yesterday, possibly until around 8 pm. This morning it began at 6:40 am. Is this not a bit too early? Is 12-14 hours of this noise in a day not excessive? This noise has been going on all week. How much longer will it persist? Speaking with my neighbors, this noise is forcing us to risk covid and go into the office. Is there no way to turn down the volume on the warning beep? As bad as it is for me, I imagine this must cause some loss of hearing and sanity for the construction workers using the equipment.

I need to report a tenant who is living at a storage facility by renting out an office space and is also using it for vehicle storage with multiple trucks being stored out in the driveways. This is causing a concern and an issue. This has been informed to the landlord and still continues.

Homeless individuals are urinating through the fence line onto our property, multiple times a day. This morning, as I came into my office and opened my blinds, an individual exposed himself by taking off his pants to urinate. They are littering trash all over and throwing clothing items over the fence. Their animals are also running around off-leash, sometimes even barking at pedestrians on the B-Line, occasionally chasing after them.

This complaint was issued to the Monroe County Branch of the NAACP BY Mr. Marlon Smith.
December 3 2021 between 4p-4:30pm my 11 year old son was physically assaulted by a school bus driver for mccsc transportation the incident happen while my son was aboard the school bus in route home and the approximate location/place at the time of the incident are streets Leighton and Wickens(The Highlands),however immediately after learning of the incident I headed for mccsc school transportation fast as I could drive, calling 911 in route.BPD officer Tibbs and BDP officer Kruse responded to the call.Although the incident happened in vicinity to where Monroe County Sheriff Department would respond a Bloomington Officer responded and handled the proceeded to perform an investigation.Officer Tibbs myself Lucas Smith,Noah Smith,mccsc Brad Lucas and transportation supervisor were all in a room at mccsc transportation department.
Officer Tibbs interviewed my children.The exact day of the incident December 3 2021 Officer Tibbs said he would not file charges on the bus driver "without" 1.examining my son injury for any sign of bruise/marking from the bus driver grabbing my son 2.Without speaking to the school bus driver at all 3.Without interviewing any witnesses/students from the school bus who actually observed the incident besides my children 4.Without verifying if there was video footage available 5.Without ever seeing medical documentation related to my son injury from health care physician
Brad Lucas and other staff at mccsc never once showed concern for my son injury they didn't ask to see the area on my son leg that the bus driver injured and they never had the driver submit to a drug screen to see if he see if he was under the influence.I was told by Brad Lucas school bus driver that assaulted my son was allowed to take the bus home on weekends and so he never did arrive at the mccsc transportation office while I was there December 3 2021 and I was there at least 2 hours.On December 3 2021 As far as I know Brad Lucas,mccsc transportation supervisor had not spoke to the driver and neither did officer Tibbs interview the driver on this particular day.Brad Lucas told me that he would review video footage over the that weekend December 4th 2021 Officer Tibbs winding down his interview with my children without asking to see any physical evidence of the assault said he would not file charges on this driver this is Jeff Hauswald school district and he isn't doing anything.December 6 2021 mccsc school bus transportation told me there was no video of the incident although supposedly all busses are equipped with the latest state of the art safety and video surveillance to protect our children. DCS in involved however DCS is doing a extremely terrible lazy job.Althought the driver admitted to physical grabbing my son to Department of Children Services the DCS case worker Trina Staten is telling me that without video footage of the incident she can't prove the driver had malicious intent.He grabbed my son near his genitals and DCS caseworker is saying she doesn't know if there was malicious intent.The bus driver isn't supposed to touch the kids period in general they are not supposed to touch kids and this bus driver not only touched my son he assaulted him and nobody is doing anything and I strongly feel the driver did this and felt comfortable enough to do it is because my son is black and as well law enforcement feel they don't have to respect an African American or my family its like they just tell us get over it and deal with it.Officer Tibbs so much as told me that it seemed like the driver was dealing with a situation on the bus as if that justify grabbing my son between his legs hard enough to cause bleeding.My son is bi sexual and just was starting to be comfortable with who he is and understanding what he identify with and this driver doing something so heinous is uncalled for and my son needs therapy and further medical attention.I have called the Bloomington Police Department to speak to Officer Tibbs shift supervisor several times and not once did a supervisor contact me the bus driver who identity I do not know could very wheel still be driving school bus with student aboard.On December 3 2021 the day of the incident as I was in my vehicle leaving the mccsc transportation department I clearly saw Brad Lucas talking to officer Tibbs who by then was in his patrol car.Although I don't know what they were discussing it looked damned suspicious and definitely a conversation outside of the one we all had inside the mccsc transportation .Please help cause they are just trying to blow me off and sweep this matter under the rug they don't give a damn about my son or what he suffer. I'm very disappointed its sad that all the resources and advocate supposed to be for children not even doing anything and this driver who identity I still don't know could very well be driving school bus with students still he never submitted to a drug and alcohol screen following the incident and this is something DCS should have even checked for drugs in the bus driver system.The bus driver was white and my son is black so of course the mccsc or police not doing anything they lied to DCS and just moving on.Im a black man and had I been that driver and touched a white kid I'd definitely loose my job they would throw me under the jail with several felony charges on me and I'd have to submit to a drug screen.This man not only assaulted my son he basically groped and molested him and nobody doing anything
Thank you

I am a neighbor of this address. Twice in the past year, the two dogs who live at this property have been in the street and charged me and my dog. On another occasion, one of the dogs charged the property's fence and attempted to bite me by reaching *over* the fence. I have reported two of these instances to Animal Control. The last time (when the dog attempt to bite over the fence), the Animal Control officer told me that he had explained to the owners that their fence violates zoning by being too close to the sidewalk, and that the owners had expressed an intention to remove the fence in the front and keep the dogs in the back. However, I have heard, "We keep the dogs in the back" multiple times, when that is not true. The Animal Control Officer suggested that I could contact the city's zoning office, to have the fencing issue in the front yard addressed. I cannot find a way to contact Zoning specifically, so I am submitting the request here. FWIW, other people have had encounters with these dogs, though I don't know if they have reported it. Thank you.
