Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
Sims Lane and Leonard Springs Road
- Case Date:
- 7/8/2025
Received from a Resident in Van Buren Township.
I live off Sims lane and have a question?
When you try to get out onto Leonard Springs off of Sims there are a bunch of weeds / shrubbery/ trees that totally block the view to the South. So you have to inch out and hope to not get hit in the meantime. And with the way people fly over that hill south of Sims, it can be dangerous.
So my question is how can we get those trimmed? It is practically on the road, so not sure if it’s the county or homeowner?
I don’t want to cause any problems but also don’t want there to be an accident there. Sims lane traffic plus the Heatherwood traffic makes for a busy intersection. I’ve lived there for 30yrs and this is the worst I’ve seen those weeds / shrubs, whatever it is.
Any help would be appreciated!

Tree of heaven spotted in the park. Since they are spraying in the park for other things, this might be a good opportunity to stop this invasive species.

I live at 6594 N Netha Ct Bloomington, IN with my two dogs. We have a fenced in backyard but to take my dogs out I must go through my front yard with them leashed to get to the gate. Last year my neighbor's dogs cornered me and my dog on our front porch and bit his tail. I called the nonemergency line ad sheriffs were sent to my house but the neighbors did not answer the door and the dogs were not home by the time they arrived. Since then I have dealt with them trying to get in my fenced in yard, and not being able to take my dogs out when they are outside. Today, my husband went to take out our 11 week old puppy and him and the puppy were cornered again on our front porch by our neighbors two dogs and they tried to take our puppy out of his arms. Our neighbors do not seem to care about their dogs coming and doing this and I am not sure what to do.

Wondering if you could tell me what the utility digging in the 2600 block of South Rogers is for. They are unmarked trucks and we received no notice of work in the area. Holes in several yards.

There has been a large Rumpke dumpster parked in the exit lane of the parking lot of our apartment complex for 10 days. Hunter Bloomington Property Management gave residents no notice of this dumpster -- or of the two others that have previously been placed in other spots in the parking lot. This makes the necessity of driving the wrong way down the drive lane in the back lot in order to exit even more dangerous. I called their office before end of the day on Friday, June 27th and received no answer. But I haven't been able to get a person on the phone from property management in several months. I also sent an email on July 1 which they also have not responded to.
The dumpsters appear to have been for construction garbage, as one of the buildings was re-roofed last week. But residents have used the dumpsters for personal garbage and with the heat, the smell is quite noticeable, just outside our door. We have not been able to consistently get deliveries to our door since this most recent dumpster appeared. And we are also concerned that the dumpster may block the access of emergency vehicles, which I noted in my email to property managment.
