The stone house on the NW corner of Dixie and Fairview had a lot of tree work done, weeks ago. Thet left a lot of the limbs in the unimproved alleyway behind the house and down the alley. It needs to go before more snow flies.
Not sure if folk were trying to be nice with a one-size fits approach but with new salary adjustments department heads like CFRD have very little grant/regulatory/technical needs compared to Planning and HAND for instance. And staff sizes such as Clerk and HR also should be a consideration.
Several potholes at the corner of the intersection of W Second Street and Madison, on the side of the street where the strip mall with Mary M's flower shop is.
Pothole in the road next to the United Way Campaign building (441 S College Ave), but the pothole is on W Second Street, across from Seminary Square.
I park on 6th street between Morton and College 5 days out of the week as I work on the square. About 60% of the time the meter will read my card as declined which causes me to move spots or try to find change to fill up the meter. I had to move 3 times on 12/2 because the first meter was blank, I was told to move and when I did that meter declined my card so I moved again and that one took my card. The same issue happened today but I didn’t have a space to move to so I put in what change I had, went into where I work and got 4 more quarters and put those in and then proceeded to do the pay by phone via a guest on the app to add the needed 6.5 hours. My confirmation email told me I had until 7:03pm but the amount paid total should have went until about 8:30pm. With no guarantee of not getting a ticket, my coworker went down and put enough in to go until 8:58pm just to be safe. So a total of almost $16 to park for 8.5 hours. The meters not working properly is a continued issue for me. I have lived in Bloomington my entire life and I’ve worked downtown for 4 years always using metered parking. It wouldn’t be a big deal to me if this didn’t happen to me multiple times a week. I call every so often to inform the city of Bloomington parking about the issues I have and I’m usually told there is no way to prevent getting a ticket even if the order is put in, I just have to contest the ticket with hopes it will be dismissed. It is just frustrating to me because I always pay and I’m more often than not completely inconvenienced or late to work trying to deal with the issues with the meter. It’s just disappointing as a life resident here that has to use that parking every day. I’m hoping this reaches someone that can try to address some of these issues.
The FBI is advising Americans to avoid sending text messages. A lot of city business is conducted via text. Is the city considering issuing some kind of guidance on this topic? And more broadly, is the city considering any changes to its cell phone policy? As it stands many employees are expected/required to use their personal devices for work, and they are not eligible for a city issued phone and there is no option for a stipend. Thank you.
Street barricades blew down two nights ago. Very dangerous in terms of projectiles hitting people and property. Also hard to see at night for thru traffic on W. 1st.,
This Volkswagen Scirocco has been parked in front of 404 E 1st Street since Monday, December 1, 2024; it has not moved from the parking space. Please ticket it or have it towed away because my family and guests would like to park in front of my house when visiting. Sincerely, Elida C. Behar December 9, 2024
First Street between Rogers and College is open again. When will the #2 South route start using it?
