Just spoke with the county regarding issues in the ROW, blocked sidewalks, etc. (items that citizens can report and get addressed more easily within city limits, but again the city is within the county). Their stance was that any items (not within city limits) are items that only the police/sheriff would enforce. This is not how code is laid out and seems to be not the legal process in place. Can we get someone in the city to have conversations with the county on behalf of county tax payers, as Bloomington residents or even visitors for that matter are within Monroe county as well? There continues to be a deficit in response to daily issues, a default of finger pointing to other departments or endless transfers to be told only police will do anything if they have time. This is very frustrating as there continues to be no system, such a uReport, within the County to get items addressed more easily. Instead they want to continue to require account creation for them to obtain your data or require in person visits. Citizens need help with the county to improve our experience and quality of life in Monroe County. Please help facilitate this as it is going unchanged even with what limited contact citizens can make to them. Thank you!

Not sure which category this falls under. Eight (!) trash bins are lying on the sidewalk (south side of Cottage Grove, just east of Walnut), completely blocking pedestrian traffic. It isn't really a busy street and it's one-way so not a huge problem for most people who can step around them off the curb into the street, but people in wheelchairs or with strollers would not be able to navigate the area.

There is a construction sign that was left in our yard from some work that was being done in the neighborhood awhile ago. I think it had to do with laying fiber, but I'm not sure. Can this sign be picked up?

There needs to be a roundabout or traffic light at Prow & Arlington, because it is a nearly daily issue, twice a day, because the intersection is an unprotected free-for-all PLUS inexperienced drivers.

We do not have water as of 5:40 PM 1/11/2024. I have not received any emails and am up to date on billing (with 20 days left to pay for last month). It appears there is work going on up the road but I am not sure if that has anything to do with that or if it’s a household problem. Please get back to me as soon as possible. Thank you!

About 2:30, 1/11/24, twelve cars were at Griffy Lake dam parking lot, with two more, both City vehicles, and I asked one of them "Do bladders and bowels stop working in winter?" At first, no comprehendre. I said, why is the rest room locked? I asked them to pass on my complaint, and the guys directed me to U-REPORT. After my run at 3:30, 18 cars were in the parking lot, none city vehicles. Griffy Lake sees more than 50 cars a day, perhaps more than 100 - where the rest room? This is plainly a sanitation issue. If there's no restroom, at least walk the trails with a pooper-scooper!
