Follow-up Case #179422. "Good afternoon, sorry for the delay in response, I was unsure of who to send this type of case. Forwarding to Parking Services thank you"
Two comments: 1) after several years and lots of scooter complaints (media, uReport, etc.) it's strange that it wasn't routine where to refer it
2) maybe that explains why not a single ticket has been for improperly parked scooters. Anyhow, I suggest that routine monitoring of sidewalks (downtown at least) be assigned to Parking Enforcement

There is a Lime scooter blocking the driveway to the 6th Street Garage of the Monroe County Public Library. The garage and driveway are both used daily by our facilities and mobile outreach staff. I drive the Outreach Van and the scooter is parked in such a way that it blocks my ability to pull in and reverse the van in order to to load and unload it with materials for community members.

I live in Garden Hill trailer court and there is a scooter that has been in my sight for a week now. I live in 132, and looking west out my window, it is parked in front of an empty lot on the last road before Curry Pike. I know it's not supposed to be there. Hoping someone will come pick it up...

A scooter rack has been set up in the street in our residential neighborhood. It should not be there, should it?

This scooter parking has recently been placed in front of our home without notice. We feel that this parking will be an extreme nuisance to our home, as it is located directly outside bedroom windows. We fear that intoxicated people riding these scooters will be close to our parked cars and right outside our home on a frequent basis. We are worried about noise and the safety of our home and property with intoxicated people parking scooters in the middle of the night. In addition, we do not want people loitering outside of the home. We want this parking area relocated. The parking is located at the corner of 12th Street and Grant Street.

This image shows a scooter parked in violation of Bloomington's city code near the intersection of Walnut and 12th Streets (39.174306, -86.533497) at 2021-11-20 07:27:00. I believe this infraction is citable and finable under the city's ordinance. If no citation or fine is issued, I would like to be notified within a reasonable time with the specific reasons why the local law will not be enforced in this instance. Thanks.

I'm trying to combine five separate complaints into one, as they are similar in nature (improperly parked scooters on sidewalks) and they're likely to forwarded to the legal department anyway. So I figured I would batch them up. I think each of the five photos show a scooter that should cause the city to cite and fine the company under city code. If they're not cited and fined, I would like an explanation within a reasonable time why they're not being cited and fined.
Here's the five photos by file name, with time, date, and specific location:
