I am currently attending the virtual City of Bloomington Board of Park Commissioners meeting via Zoom. I am disappointed by the city’s negligence to make this meeting more accessible for those with hearing barriers. Why don’t ALL virtual city meetings have closed captions and/or live signing?
Currently, the city only has one method for filing noise complaints, which is to call the number listed on the city's website. Having only one reporting method is extremely ineffective, and limiting the reporting method to only verbal communication creates a barrier for accessibility. There are individuals who cannot communicate over the phone - like me. Illness stole my voice years ago, but my hearing was not impacted - I still hear the noise. I just can't report it. Not sure what an adequate fix would be, as it would have to be something that is regularly monitored. (Address provided is rough estimate of area where heavy bass plays frequently, it could be one of these houses or an apartment building - I needed to put a location on the map, so I included that one.)
During today's GIS training with Max, I checked out the MyBloomington portal and noticed that the Parks are not showing up currently. See screen capture attached.
It would be helpful if the City would advertise road closures with a wide range of public media when they are planning a project. Was it in the newspaper or WTIU or WFHB, etc.? Thank you.
Cover to my main H2O shutoff at the street apparently was buried by dirt when they installed the fiber box on the SW corner of my lot. Today I was Unable to locate cover without metal detector to keep the vegetation clear of it. I have a plumbing project coming up that I’ll need to shut off the water at the street this summer. Thank you for your assistance with this matter.
low water pressure in building and irrigation
When underground utility work was being performed, there was some exposed wire left behind in the yard. Requesting that the remaining exposed wire be buried or removed.
In the street adjacent to 3152 s Coppertree , a cover is half missing
It is sinking and needs cleaned.
My water is off. There has been work in the area, but no communication about it. No work occurring today. I am quite disturbed that it appears I might be without water for a while with no information about it.
