The homeless camp that lives on the pickle ball courts are smoking and their stuff is over a large portion of the out of bounds section, along with their bikes. The pickle ball courts are for playing pickle ball, and I'm getting tired of having to navigate their stuff.
When is the destruction of the Push Place playground scheduled? Bloomington Developmental Learning Center (BDLC) reserved the shelter for their graduation ceremonies for May 22 with the intent that children would be available to use the playground. That playground was the first playground in the city to be designed to be inclusive to accommodate people with disabilities as well as able bodied children. You have not only lost that but this playground design doesn't even provide a developmentally appropriate progression of increasingly difficult slides so that children could progress to a large slide such as the only one that is included in this design. I am frankly astounded that any reputable playground design firm would propose this design. In incident 175703, you claim that you got feedback from parents. What parents? According to the Parks and Rec Master Plan, the west half of Arden Place is serviced by this park. Did you contact any parents in this neighborhood? So far, I haven't found any that heard of this. You didn't seek input from BDLC, which in the past has taken their children to Push Place on field trips. I follow Parks and Rec on Facebook and I haven't seen anything about any public hearings on this. Do not close this issue as resolved. It most certainly is NOT.
Large bush growing in the chain link fence between sidewalk and Carlisle property is blocking the sight line for drivers stopped at the Weatherstone stop sign for turn onto Woodlawn, cannot see oncoming traffic as it comes over the hill between Grimes and Weatherstone. Please see if that bush could be cut back or removed.
It would be cool if our area didn’t lose power as much. But with as much as the traffic lights here go out you’d think y’all could get a battery or somethin
pot holes in need of repair in both east and west traffic. Thanks for the repair of the same places eariler.
Lawn has invasive weeds in lawn growing 6 ft high (over 8 inches of overgrowth per city regulation)on the North side of the property. The weeds are also growing up against the house and spreading into neighbor's property to the North. Grass is usually un-mowed and over 8 inches high. The invasive weeds are Japanese Knotweed and must be removed up to property line.
Lawn has not been maintained this year and is quite high.
There are still a couple of large potholes at this location (3253 Southern Oaks).
The pavement is rough in the right turn lane from West Allen St onto South Larkspur Lane. I reported this on 5/6/2021 (https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=175697). The ticket was closed because “Crews were in your area 5-10-21.” However, there were no repairs done, so I’m reporting it again.
