Sinkhole has developed due to storm runoff. Hole is at least 4 feet deep by 7 feet in diameter. Sinkhole appears to be located in the public easement. Contact Josh Turi at 614.266.0921.
just wondered why the water tastes a little weird the past few days.
I'm hoping this is the right place for this comment. I have a complaint about the Taste of Bloomington...if this isn't the right place, please tell me. anyway, the problem stems from the public hand washing stations located by the Port A Jons. I used the restroom, walked over to one of the stations to wash my hands. Soaped my hands up and proceeeded to wash the soap off. There was no water. At none of the stations...I was stuck with soap all over my hands. I had nothing to wipe my hands on except my shirt. which then left an ugly and embarrassing design. I was not happy. And later on, when I bought more food, (a Jankos ribeye sandwich), it tasted like soap. Not pleasant. If you're going to have a hand washing station, either make sure there's an ample supply of water, or use straight hand sanitizer that requires no water.

Weeds are overgrowing on Rail Trail. They need to be attended to.
The Solid Waste District hours are terrible. I was just turned away at 5:34pm as were a bunch of others (cars lined up behind me trying to leave the lot, so they expected it to be open too). If the hours were friendly to the people trying to recycle they would be open MORE on the weekends, not less. And they would be open MORE after 5pm, not open during 9-5. Unless you're trying to pick up recycling primarily from servers and bartenders, these hours do not make sense.
This car has been parked in grass behind 900 w. 8th street for years.
There is a dead dog just off the road at the NE corner of 3rd Street and Franklin. He has a collar. I saw him from the road...didn't stop and look for a tag.
