Can the City go out to make sure the woods all along the entire length of the Rail Trail from Country Club to Gordon Pike are clear of homeless camps? These were all evicted previously and there may be people living on the City property again. This morning there were multiple men screaming and yelling obscenities at each other back in the woods along the trail. This is dangerous for everyone who uses the trail, as it is a secluded, wooded area that has had a ton of safety issues previously. This area has had fights, frequent searches for wanted people who have committed all manner of crimes, weapons have been found in those camps, and there was deemed to be a serious fire hazard. I have smelled some smoke recently, suggesting their may be illegal burning happening again. Do not let this problem continue, as it was already dealt with and needs to be routinely enforced. These encampments are a serious danger.

I am extremely disappointed that the City has chosen to keep the 7-Line closed for an additional 4 months. It is disheartening to know that even if we build bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure, they can and will be treated like accessories for contractors to play with. Does the Board of Public Works advocate for the residents of Bloomington or just contractors? This appeared to be against the wishes of Engineering staff- where was this passion to approve when it came to the Bloomington monument a couple of years back that they continued to deny with no justification??

Police car #1249 left running in the parking lot as officer went grocery shopping and showed pictures from his phone of a vacation with Kroger staff. Officer then ran a stop sign as he left the parking lot. Presumably the police are not above reproach?

The abandoned building behind the Storage Facility I manage is home to many homeless around Bloomington. They are leaving trash all over the ground as well as throwing things into the back side of the property. I myself do not feel safe enough to go back there to clean this up and there are people living out of campers back there and sleeping on the ground. This is causing issues with debris and trash being tossed onto our property causing an unsafe environment. I can not properly clean this area safely and would like the owners if this building to clean up the area from trash and debris.

This could apply anywhere in Bloomington, frankly, as it's a persistent issue, so I just picked the intersection where I experienced it most recently.
Every single time I drive in Bloomington after the sun goes down, I'm met with drivers who fail (or just refuse) to dim their brights. Ind. Code § 9-21-8-51 is still on the books. I'd suggest posting signage along busier roads, but based on how often Btown drivers ignore the "One-Way" and "No Turn On Red" signs, I doubt it would work anyway. If the city has any ideas on a community education measure or infrastructure project that would help remind drivers that, yes, leaving your brights on while encountering another driver/pedestrian IS still against the law - that would be cool.

There are homeless people living in sheds behind this house. They have numerous dogs and one of them attacked a man in the backyard a couple of days ago. These dogs are always off-leash and also come into other neighbors' yards agressively. We need the city to deal with this situation

Watched 2 homeless people shoot up heroin or god knows what outside the McDonald’s. Could we maybe do something about this? It is scary and unsafe.
