Hi, I had a note from the sanitation crew that said my trash was too close too a vehicle (true) and had to be placed on the curb.
I live at 419 S Highland Ave. The trash and recycling cans were on the sidewalk, as they always are, so I'm not sure if I'm supposed to put them closer to the street? Also, they are very close to a car because it's the only place they can be put other than the street or the driveway (which is shared) so I'm not sure what I should do.
Also, my yard waste wasn't picked up at all, so I'm in a bit of a quandary. I think very highly of the folks picking up the trash and recycling and want to do whatever I can to make it as easy as possible. I'm just not sure how to do that. Please advise.
Thanks very much,
Deborah

Large pothole/indention noticed today driving westbound on e 10th street, I believe between N Jordan Avenue and N Fee Lane.

The light across the street (on the south side of the street) from 1210 W 8th is out again. It was reported out a few weeks ago, and was supposedly fixed. It was reported out again a couple weeks ago and someone came and replaced the photo sensor. It is now out again.

To whom it may concern:
My name is Lauren Goldman, and I am the treasurer of the IU Waterski and Wakeboard Team. Our club team was founded over 40 years ago, and is comprised of a group of enthusiastic undergraduate students competing in collegiate water ski and wakeboard tournaments. From rookies to national title holders, our members are all highly passionate and motivated individuals that live for practice on Lake Lemon. When our members are not in class or on the lake, they are serving the Bloomington area through volunteering and alumni events on and off campus.
Our team is a growing presence on Indiana University’s campus, on Lake Lemon, and across the city of Bloomington. We have many aspirations for our upcoming school year, including expanding our membership, doing more for our community, and competing as a team in national tournaments.
In order to reach our goals, we need more opportunities to fundraise money in the Bloomington area. A few of our ideas were to set up a grilled cheese stand on a weekend night at a busy street corner, host a car wash in downtown Bloomington, sell our personalized merchandise, and more. On behalf of the club, I wanted to request information regarding how we could turn these aspirations into a reality. I wanted to ask what Bloomington businesses or locations would grant us permission to host a car wash, or do we need to follow a process of steps to be able to vendor on a street corner?
Our goal is to have a positive, lasting impact on our community while also reaching our own individual potentials. I hope to get in contact with someone willing to assist our team coming this fall. Any insight, information, or advice would be highly appreciated. My phone number is (260) 267-3526 and I am always available to be reached about any questions or concerns.
Thank you in advance for your time.

Pavement over recently repaired water valve at the intersection of University and Eastside is already subsiding.

Large tree has split and fallen north of the That Road parking lot for the Clear Creek Trail. (Just north of the bridge crossing the creek, east side of trail)
The top most part of the fallen tree was blocking the access path on to the trail from the neighborhood, so my husband and I cut back the smaller limbs to clear the path, but the huge trunk (1/2 of tree) is hanging precariously just off the trail. Removal of the trunk (and possibly whole tree?) will need to be done by an experienced tree person.
Concerned that kids hiking along trail might try to climb on the unstable trunk...

Reports of unsightly weeds and trash at this property as well as trimmings and brush that have not been removed. The vegetation and debris detract from the overall tidiness of the neighborhood and may compromise public health by attracting unwanted pests.

Washington Street just south of Smith where there was construction last summer, the street still needs to be fixed. Last fall you said it was too cold for asphalt repair. It's been warm enough for a while now. It's especially bad in the bike lane.

I contacted IU but they said this light belongs to the city. The light to let pedestrians cross at 10th and Fee Lane (going from Kelley School to the Arboretum) is not working. I stood out there in the rain for 5 minutes today, pressing the button several times, but it did not turn to the pedestrian light when it was supposed to. Instead, cars kept going so I walked all the way up the sidewalk to the library where there is a "yield" pedestrian crosswalk; not that anyone does. This is a busy cross intersection for pedestrians, especially with orientation going on.
