From walnut and Patterson all the way to 2nd and walnut I counted 8 shopping carts filled with personal possessions from the homeless, along with varies debris and trash around these shopping carts! Something needs done by the city to discourage stealing shopping carts! Area referenced needs cleaned up and shopping carts returned to owners!
I walk downtown early morning and have noticed there is much more trash laying around than normal. There used to be a couple of city workers out every day picking up the trash, but it seems like this is no longer happening.
Could the city place a garbage can near the chocolate moose or require them to have one? People buy ice cream and go to the benches a bit north of there. There is no trash can nearby so people just leave their sticky trash on the bench or the ground. The melting ice cream attracts bugs. Thanks.
The location looks like a junkyard a lot of junk on the outside of the house
Hello. I am a Bloomington resident residing at 110 1/2 W 6th St. My apartment entrance is in an alleyway off of 6th between Walnut and College. While this alley has normal amounts of debris, there seem to be many unsafe wires dangling from the various poles and buildings. My main concern is with the alley behind my building. The entrance is off of Walnut between "Btown Diner" and "Samira" restaurants. There is an abundance of trash, grease, vomit, bugs, defecation, and cigarettes throughout the space that causes a repulsive smell and attracts many rodents. This is a very unsanitary environment that workers from the businesses(restaurants especially) on 6th Street take their breaks in. I am not sure the best course of action but I would suggest having the businesses clean their trash bins in addition to having the city power wash the grease and other various fluids off the pavement. I would appreciate a response. Thank you, Ryan

On this page of the City of Bloomington Website (http://bloomington.in.gov/sanitationmodernization) I find conflicting references to the size of the recycling cart that will be issued to residents. See the quoted texts below. B. Recycling Operations • Weekly service: Recycling pickup will become a weekly pickup service on a designated day for each household. • Carts provided: Each household will receive a 64 gallon cart for recycling collection as a default. If desired, customers can also request either larger or smaller carts for recycling instead. Carts will be made of recycled content and containers that are currently being used will be picked up and recycled if the resident chooses. **Note: Households receive a 64 gallon cart. **Later it states...under the FAQs... How many carts will I get? Two carts will be provided per household, one for regular solid waste and one for all recycling. Again, customers will choose the size of their solid waste container. Customers will receive a 96 gallon recycling cart (or may request a smaller sized one), which will be collected for weekly single stream recycling. Households (customers) receive a 96 gallon cart. **My question is about which size recycling cart will people actually receive? I know I can request a smaller recycling cart, but which size are you actually planning to give households by default?
Yesterday morning, right after my kids jumped on the bus, a city waste truck came to do pick-up with a confederate flag license in the front dash. Please have it removed. For some, it is a symbol of hate and violence.Thank you
