The city giving a "prize" for the mulching competition of an opportunity to buy a subscription service to a for profit company that proudly partners with anti LGBT chik fil a is messed up. Rethink your plan.
Changing a racist discriminatory street name to one that focuses on a denomination that just July 7, 2021, AGAIN voted against same sex unions is not the intersectional work I would expect from City Hall. https://www.hrc.org/resources/stances-of-faiths-on-lgbt-issues-african-methodist-episcopal-church
Since the American eugenics movement focused on physical and perceived mental disability/sexual orientation/social norms, is that represented in the renaming of Jordan Avenue?
Please put the east side marsh to use somehow. Empty big box buildings are horrible for our City
Improvements on Smith need expedition. Contact State Highway and urge them please. Enough is enough.
I have no idea why it took so long, BUT it is so nice to be able to walk the b-line over the bridge and around the area of grimes and Morton and feel safe with my little kids. Please keep true to the rules and regulations surrounding Bloomington to provide to its citizens a safe community to raise children!
I had to call 911 for medical assistance for someone who was breathing, but appeared unconscious and was unresponsive. Around 10 min. later a police officer arrived for a well fare check and then he called for an ambulance. It ended up being more than 20 minutes after I'd called 911 that EMTs arrived. Why wouldn't they have sent an ambulance immediately? What I described to the dispatcher was a medical emergency. I understand that resources are tight, but I felt very frustrated and concerned for the unconscious person.
Our neighborhood has massive concerns regarding the new east third development. Kmart is ok but we are not convinced the city at all is taking traffic seriously. 3rd and Smith is not just backed up but dangerous. The hospital will open and overall this is not planned with any logic other than wanting more bedrooms. Is there green space or commercial components? Why allow so much parking? You can seriously be thinking this is public transportation oriented when there are more proposed parking spaces than bedrooms. 3rd has no safe crossings for bikes and pedestrians right now. So much wrong with lack of thinking ahead.
We're over 1 miles from Bloomington South High School (off South High St), yet every Friday night we hear the PA system announcing the football games as clear as day. Can anything be done to encourage them to calibrate their noise levels?
Significant scattered trash east side of N Smith Road in street, just north of Morningside
