Several potholes with one especially deep and dangerous
Bradford Pears (invasive species) located at Monroe Water Treatment Plant. The two trees are located at the discharge point of a surface drain. More importantly, the trees are located directly adjacent to the Hoosier National Forest, which is just a mere 50ft away (across Shady Side Dr). Currently, the trees are bearing fruit. It appears that these fruits' seeds have the opportunity to traverse the slope and end up in our watershed, tainting the Hoosier National Forest, as an invasive species. The trees should be removed ASAP, as part of the City's initiative to systematically remove Bradford Pear trees from public property. Given the proximity to the National Forest and in the confines of the Lake Monroe watershed, this is a priority site.
Re: After being denied a solution, I would like to clarify that this is CITY property. I do not understand how and why I should “contact the county regarding this” because the City of Bloomington owns this property. As an employee am I supposed to contact the County regarding issues at my workplace? No! That’s why I’m filling out this report. There is an invasive species on the CITY OF BLOOMINGTON’s property of which they have vowed to remove in recent initiatives. This is the responsibility of the city, not the county. I feel like you didn’t even actually read what I wrote and just looked at the address and said “NOPE! Not my responsibility” Bradford Pears (invasive species) located at Monroe Water Treatment Plant.

We have been experiencing in the last week very weak to no water pressure from our faucets. It is next to impossible to get water to run from the faucets. There are no leaks in the house. We would like to see if it could be inspected as it may be related to the mainline.
I have no running water at the moment.
Potholes developing along seam in road
We were told that COB along with Monroe County would be working to collect excess tree debris from the July storms. We followed what was asked and submitted a form(case #192173) and placed it all on the side of the road next to our driveway. My husband saw the people come by on the day we were scheduled and they picked up some stuff on the OPPOSITE side of the road(directly across from our house where there is no house) and left everything next to our driveway along with the debris next to our mailbox. They seemed to have picked up a small amount of the debris next to the mailbox but not all of it. My husband checked and our case is now 'Closed' but it only lists anonymous. So someone skipped us or just didn't do it and then closed out our ticket with no reason. We would like someone to come out and collect. Thank you
