Unsafe Buildings

817 W 8th ST

Case Date:
6/5/2014

This house has been abandoned since bob raper died over two years ago. The roof is caving in and the neighbors are concerned about squatters. What is the status? This is a blight on our neighborhood.

City Performance

817 W 7th ST

Case Date:

Can the city conduct a review of the historic preservation board? There is little to no predictability, and I'm confused what purposes the city has for the group. Who do they represent? They don't seem to favor property owners or take cost into consideration but they also don't seem to favor the public by thinking what would the public want to save. And they don't favor the neighbors (and shouldn't because it shouldn't be just about making folks rich enough to own historic homes richer) as they don't listen to them either? Who do they listen to? And what are they saving for who? There should definitely be protection, I'd just like to know better what their goals are. I don't know if the group functions as intended.

The security lights both on the trail and the parking lot have been off at dark for the past several days. I'm not sure if they are damaged or just turned off for some reason.

Something is wrong with the telescope on the playground equipment at Butler park. My grand daughter's finger got pinched in it (it folded over on her finger) and 2 days later it is still hurting her. I hope this can be checked so no other child gets hurt. Seems to be defective? Thanks a lot.

Blocked Sidewalk

812 W 9th ST

Case Date:
8/10/2023

Tree branches overhang 9th St. sidewalk at Butler Park hanging lower than five feet--impassable without ducking or leaving sidewalk--very difficult for elderly pedestrians. Hard to understand why the city is issuing citations for minor aesthetic violations when their own property has significant issues with accessibility, unmowed grass, and poison ivy next to walkways. Come on, Bloomington. Stop empowering harassment and instead prioritize violations that actually impede safety and access.
