Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

1217 N Madison ST

Case Date:
10/16/2019

I recently saw a map of sidewalks that showed the westside of Madison between 16th and 17th was in "fair" condition (https://bloomington.in.gov/transportation/sidewalks/repair-assistance/map.pdf). This stretch of sidewalk is narrow and broken and one of the worst well-traveled pedestrian areas in town. The east side of the street, labeled poor on the map, isn't nearly as bad. At the very least, I'd like the map corrected so there is an accurate recored. But, what I'd really like done is that this block is fixed. It is heavily traversed and will likely see more traffic once the bus routes change. Thank you.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

1217 N Madison ST

Case Date:
9/30/2019

The photograph of this hole was taken Sept. 27, 2019. The same hole can be found in case #161692 from Oct. 27, 2017. Danna Workman reported that the hole had been repaired, but I can assure you it was not. It is located between 1217 and 1221 N Madison (closer to 1217, and so large as to be observable from satellite photos and Google Street View). Even though I knew it was there, in the dark the other night, I nearly turned an ankle in it. The whole sidewalk along the west side of N. Madison between 16th and 17th is in a terrible state of disrepair and has been the entire time I've lived in this neighborhood. I know that landowners are supposed to maintain the sidewalks, but I also know that it's the city's duty to enforce that rule. What I don't know is why Danna Workman reported that the hole was repaired when it wasn't. In any event, the sidewalk is still a hazard. What are you going to do about it?

Northeast corner on alleyway next to First United Methodist Church on Washington between Kirkwood and 4th Streets. This broken-up pavement makes coming off this sidewalk onto the alleyway fairly dangerous if you're in a wheelchair.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

322 E 12th ST

Case Date:
9/20/2019

Sidewalk in front of house has degraded to a point that it is dangerous if someone used a scooter in the dark along this stretch, or even walking. Next time the owner applies to renew the rental permit, please stipulate that the current sidewalk be taken up and a fresh one poured to match the rest of that block and remove the current hazard.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

115 E 6th ST

Case Date:
9/19/2019

This is on 6th Street between Walnut and Washington Streets on the north side of the road on the northwest corner of the alleyway. The sidewalk is raised above a 1/2" (ADA says less) making it hard for a manual wheelchair to get over it. Must go around the block or out into the street. Can it be smoothed down or asphalt added to make it beveled?

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

1122 W 6th ST

Case Date:
7/31/2019

The residents at 1122 W. 6th Street have never taken their trash bin/recycling bin off their sidewalk or front lawn (just off the sidewalk) since the very start of when the bins were delivered. They frequently just leave it right in the middle of the sidewalk for days. According to the rules, they aren't supposed to be there all week.
