The intersection of 3rd and Rogers is not well illuminated. At night, the intersection becomes dangerous to pedestrians because drivers cannot see pedestrians crossing the street. There is a lot of turning traffic at this intersection and drivers do not wait for pedestrians to cross the street. I have had several "close calls" there as well as neighbors I have talked to. There is a lamp post on the southwest corner, but it does not illuminate the intersection well enough. Its more for decoration than illumination. Can someone do a lighting survey to address this? thanks

Hello. We've been enjoying Ferguson Dog Park with our one-year-old puppy. Thank you! It's a good crowd of dogs (and owners) and, with our tiny yard in Elm Heights, it's been a wonderful place to let Teddy run around. In talking with my many dog-owning/dog-walking/tiny-yard neighbors, we have wondered if it would be possible to have an area of Bryan Park fenced off for dogs. I'm sure cost would be an issue but perhaps Bloomington residents could contribute matching funds? Besides cost, are there other prohibitive restrictions that would make a dog area an impossibility? Thank you for your time. Best, Cate Racek

Hi, I'm a resident in the Elm Heights neighborhood. For some time now, my neighborhood has noticed that there is a very suspicious chemical smell--often sickly sweet--around Carlisle Brake and Friction. After conducting citizen science for several months (that is, recording when and where we smell the chemicals, as well as the day's conditions), we noticed that the smell often occurs when the building has just been repainted (this is done excessively often, and the smell does not smell like wet or drying paint) or on rainy/humid days when it is difficult to monitor the atmosphere. I hope the city will look into this issue, as it continues to be a problem in a residential area. I'll gladly provide the details of our records.

Toward the end of the summer, someone drove over the streetlight adjacent to my property. The light was destroyed and completely removed. I now have an orange cone marking where the streetlight once stood and I'd like to know when a replacement light will be installed.

Someone called the front desk to report 'obscene'graffiti at two sites: under the bridge on the way to Tri North (off 10th street) and on a "mural" box on 2nd street. She said the graffiti was painted over lettering on that box that said "Miracles."

Previously, the City had come out to repair the damaged pavement on our residential street (Regents Circle).
However, upon current inspection of the repaired area, it's clear that the asphalt used to "fix" the pavement is shifting/sliding. This has left even more exposed damage than originally was there. Our hope is that the City can come out and review what kind of action plan can be used to "repair the repair". Thank you in advance!

I'm the Lead Supervisor at IU Campus Bus Service. I just talked to all of our supervisors, and we have all experienced close calls with the pedestrian crossing at 17th and Jordan at night. Please consider installing more lighting at this intersection to avoid future pedestrian injuries in these new crosswalks.
