I live at 601 N Walnut Street. The cross walks there (corner of 10th and Walnut) have pedestrian safety crossing buttons and speakers that beep. However, these beeps constantly (24 hours a day) not just when a button is pushed. I can hear it inside my apartment with the windows closed, in my bedroom with the door closed and a pillow over my head. I understand it is a safety feature, but is there a way to fix it so it only beeps when a pedestrian pushes the button to cross the street? Feel free to contact me on the phone if you have any questions: 201-615-2751. Thanks for your help! Christina Friberg
Homeless on the way to work. Every morning I drive north on Walnut from the south-side of Bloomington. As I approach town around 7:45ish. It is a typical sight these days to feel like I'm in a zombie apocalypse. Homeless people are often wandering around with grubby blankets draped around themselves. Recently there has been in increase of "stuff" around a tree in Seminary Park. Today took the cake. It appeared that lots of the "stuff" migrated to the opposite side of the street. Amidst the pile of grubby blankets someone was asleep next to the trash can about two inches from cars whizzing by. This next to Sahara Mart. Someone all cuddled up sleeping basically in the morning traffic. Please help our community to stop being the epicenter of homeless destinations! My empathy is wearing thin. It appears that many of these people are "career" homeless. It's getting ridiculous, not to mention the chaos as I drive by the Shalom Center. There is often some type of show with people falling off the curb into the streets. Many of these people visibly appear to be under the influence or suffering a mental illness. This is NOT what I would want to see if I were exploring safe communities to send my family member to college. Please save this community.
Can the concrete block retaining wall be repaired at the intersection of SR 46 at 2700 East Third Street & College Mall Road? Since at least mid-2018, it has been damaged. Blocks have fallen, earth is exposed, and general rebuild and cleanup needs to occur. It appears that this damage was a result of a motor vehicle accident. Here's the response I received from INDOT on this inquiry: "...this would be the responsibility of the city or county, as INDOT only goes to the curb in city limits."
A block or so east of the intersection of 17th & Walnut, there is this overgrown bush that forces walkers into the street. Also, the speed limit sign has been vandalized with spray paint.
SE corner of Kirkwood & College Aves. the talking signal isn't working.
