Sidewalk has been blocked by this debris for the past few weeks.
Trash can blocking sidewalk on Ballantine, north of Hunter.
People living in cars that are in front on Wheeler Mission. Can’t walk on sidewalk. People sleeping and camping there.
Motorcycle parked illegally on sidewalk
Construction crew randomly showed up to replace wall. No permits displayed that I can see. Construction equipment on site blocking sidewalk access.
Cases #193296 (6 September) and #193766 (11 October) pertain to the same property/issus. Both are closed and marked "resolved", though issue remains. Invasives have grown over the retaining wall and are blocking the sidewalk. The steps lead to what appears to be a vacant lot, though there is a building at the far north end of this property. As per Elevate, owner is: The Teague Trust 2106 Casa Mia Dr San Jose, Ca 95124 If Bloomington would pass an ordinance restricting property ownership to local residents, and even better to require that property owners actually live in the buildings they own, most of the problems like this would go away.
The issue associated with Case #193767 has not been corrected. Large, smelly dumpster on the east side of Lincoln between 14th and 15th Streets remains on the sidewalk and almost into the street. This really is not completely the fault of the property owner. Can Rumpke be fined for placing it in a public thoroughfare?
