Just before 10am on June 6, 2024, the same group from U-report 188774 are arguing yet again out in the woods along the Rail Trail. 2 or 3 people are shouting and cussing at each other. This has been going on for 20+ minutes this morning and is starting to be a regular, daily occurrence now. This is annoying to nearby property owners and frightening to trail users. Clear these homeless camps out, from Gordon Pike to Country Club Drive. The City's inaction along the Rail Trail is allowing the problem to not just continue, but grow ever since the Switchyard camps were cleared and more people moved south. This is a threat to the safety of everyone in the area, and dangerous for the homeless camp residents as it is a challenging area for police to respond to quickly if situations escalate.

On June 4, 2024, the Bloomington Police were on the Rail Trail with their patrol cars for a disturbance / argument at a homeless camp around 11:45am. On June 5, 2024, around 7:45am the Monroe Fire Protection District was on the Rail Trail for some sort of fire related issue at a homeless camp. This is on the Rail Trail north of Gordon Pike and south of Country Club Drive, in the Terrace Drive vicinity and to the east of the trail in the woods. Can the City clear ALL of the homeless camps along the Rail Trail between Country Club and Gordon? The ongoing threat to public safety in 2024 that the City allows along this trail is asking for problems. The City must put an end to this now before someone gets harmed.

Someone has been camping in the woods east of the rail trail behind my house for the past week. They have multiple dogs and have been running a generator.

Please trim the branches that overhang the short bike path that runs between South Rogers Street and South Madison Street on what would have been West Ralston Street (If it were a street and not a bike path). Thank you.

One of the two very large trees bordering the street appears diseased and dying. It is dropping branches often. The tree is also right above a crucial storm drain and the debris is clogging the drain often.

We live on Southern Oaks Drive (between Sare Road and Oakmount Drive). Drivers frequently use our street as a "cut through." We have many children in our neighborhood and, this afternoon, a five year old boy riding his bicycle was almost hit by a driver speeding through this area. The driver did not even slow down, rather, they swerved to go around him. He swerved the same direction and they almost hit him.
Our request is for speed bumps or some sort of traffic calming device to be place on South Southern Oaks Drive before a child is seriously hurt or even killed. This situation will only worsen as more apartments, and businesses are built on Sare Road.

Vehicle come off Bloomfield rd on to Allen St an Accelerate way beyond the 25 mph speed and there are some cars and trucks with very loud exhaust that you can hear them as they get farther away. There are 6 intersection in this stretch of Allen st. Could the City place some traffic calming device on Allen St from Bloomfield Rd to Adams st?
I have requested this 6 months ago and have not heard anything.
