Hello - Will someone with the City provide some details on the constant sound of heavy machinery on the south side of Bloomington? This has been going on for a while and I am unable to determine the exact source. I think it might be coming from two places, both of which appear to have connections to the City of Bloomington. The first location is to the west of the police and fire training center on S. Walnut. On many days, such as right now (for the past 30+ minutes at least), there are periods of time where there is a continuous noise from some sort of construction equipment, a diesel engine. I do not know the exact nature of what it is doing, but I cannot spend time on my deck as it is quite loud out there and when I am inside my house I can hear the noise as well. And it is more than just noise, it seems to have a deeper feel to it than simple noise by the nature of the equipment and work being done. The second location of interest is accessed from W. Gordon Pike. This area is north of Gordon Pike, between Rogers and Walnut. The entrance has a stone wall on either side of the driveway. I have observed dump trucks marked with the City of Bloomington logo going in and out of there. That site produces loud banging noises periodically, like the sound of dump trucks dumping something or being loaded. This all started in earnest within the last 6-8 months it seems like, although there have been less consistent bouts of such noises before that time frame. I would like to know if these are City operations, what exactly is going on, and how much longer these operations will continue. The use and enjoyment of my property is being greatly diminished by the noise and in a pandemic where I am home most of the day, that is incredibly frustrating.

There is a dead deer in my front yard. I called and left a message with Animal Control but wanted to submit a request here as well.

Another Music Lessons sign on Moore's Pike at the marquee for the AMC theaters, in the grass next to the road. Formerly reported as #173098, which I think was closed. Sign is still there, or again there.

What improvement is in store for the Bryan Park tennis court? It's a good social distancing sport. Could this work have waited till Fall?

1) Why are white and orange circles sprayed up the slope between the basketball court and the picnic shelter? 2) is it true that ragweed can not be mowed along the east and west sides of the stream that joins Sheridan Creek? A guy pruning bald cypress told me that, but I know that some years it is kept under better control. I don't think mowing closer will endanger the plentiful jewel weed, senna, cup flowers, blue mist flower, etc.
