During trash pick-up today, the trucks doing the work were leaking significant amounts of oil or hydraulic fluid at each stop. Because of this morning's rain, this left an iridescent pool at every pick-up location. We appreciate the great service provided, but both the trucks and the neighborhoods would be much better off without the leaking oils left behind. I suspect those trash trucks are very expensive, and will survive longer with regular maintenance.

The bump outs that have been added to Morningside Drive need to have reflective paint or some other sort of marking that can be seen both during the day and at night. My father pulled into town last night from NM (his first moment of moving to Bloomington!), and ran into one of the bump outs. The result was that he blew two tires. All of the bump out curbs already have many black tire marks on them, which is an indication that he is by far not the first person to make contact. I urge the city to add paint or something else that will draw attention to these, so that this doesn't keep happening.

Just witnessed a near miss of two vehicles including a City bus at 10th and Smith. Please collaborate with INDOT for safety improvements at that intersection for vehicles turning left from Smith. They aren't taking citizen concerns seriously but would better receive input from Transit and the City. Please reach out. It's very dangerous.

Hello, I am writing in support of local urban agriculture. I was very glad to discover GardenQ at 2110 E Covenanter and want to express my support for community based agriculture and education. I recently wrote about strategies for sustainable food policy (“Putting Food in the Driver’s Seat: Aligning food systems policy to advance sustainability, health, and security,” in Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, September 2023), and I believe their efforts are forward-facing in making Bloomington a hub and example for urban agriculture. Thank you.

The owners of this house leave a boat parked on the street at least 5 days/nights a week. It is in a cul-du-sac. In addition to the boat, they park at least one, sometimes two huge trucks on the street. This makes it difficult for, not only neighbors to get through the street, but also the trash truck and possibly emergency vehicles.
