Hello, I cannot find a place on this website to enter a report of dead trees on public property. Please forward this to the right office: I'm concerned about dead trees that may be hazardous to cars or people, located in the forested public right-of-way (formally known as Davis St.) beside my house: at the dead end of the 1000 block of S. Ballantine. Can the city cut down some of these trees before they're blown onto cars or the street? Additionally, we have a huge dead tree between our house (1033 S. Ballantine) and the home behind us on Highland Ave. It abuts power lines, so I assume that this is either public property or a utility easement. I have tried (off and on) for a year to get Duke to remove it. No action. Can the city either remove this tree or persuade Duke to do so before it takes down all the wires that serve both Highland and Ballantine homes on this block? Thank you.

After the last storm, water draining damaged a portion of the road in front of our house, and part of the front lawn was washed into the drainage ditch
Neighbors lawn hasn't been consistently mowed this year. Kind neighbors have mowed the back. The front has yet to be taken care of. Resident is aware that it's a problem.
Our culdesac is never fully plowed when it snows. The driver just comes In and does one sweep. In past years they have gone around the culdesac and managed to clear it entirely.

The trash pickup at my home consistently tosses my bin into my flower bed and has destroyed my expensive perennial flowers. For years, I had private trash pickup and not once did this occur, yet every week the city trash pickup tosses my bin in my flower bed. I have to pay for a service I didn't want, didn't request--that was forced upon me--and I also have to put up with destruction of my property? A bit ridiculous. I have included a picture from last week (and have others) but this occurs nearly every week.
I moved into the edge of elm heights this past August. I grew up in Bloomington and never thought I’d be able to afford a home near Harmony, in this area, but the couple who sold our house wanted a family who would respect the integrity of the historic area and luckily, my parents invested in my moving here as well. I have two very young children and am a stay at home parent. I did not know when we bought our home that an unlicensed frat is behind us. When they party (which is fine-it is a college town) I don’t feel comfortable letting my children play in our backyard. It smells like beer, they and their guests yell over the din of their music and I don’t trust them not to toss beer cans in the yard (which they have). It saddens me that the current administration is not protecting families like mine from being priced out of beautiful neighborhoods. That all the old homes near me are rentals for students-not priced for anyone else mind you-and that changes to zoning may make this even more oppressive. Please do not allow single family zoning to change my hometown and now the hometown of my children. Let families like mine be able to live in real Bloomington neighborhoods and not pushed out to suburban dwellings and condos. We are the residents that stay and build this town and keep it going. The university students will come and go. I am a Bloomerang and maybe there would be more if others could afford to live in neighborhoods they grew up admiring.
