1200 W Woodhill DR

Case Date:

There is a homeless encampment in the woods across the creek immediately behind my home in a residential neighborhood. A matter of feed away from my property. I have sent a letter/email to Mayor and Dep Mayor with no response. As the leaves fall, I will be staring at the encampment and they will be staring right into my home. I have to regularly call the fire dept due to fires at the encampment. I have to listen to them scream, yell and fight. I am also a licensed rehabber and am terribly upset with the way they have ruined the wildlife territory. The woods behind my home is one of the primary reasons that I bought my home almost 10 years ago. I am worried for my children's safety and well being (as well as my own) as the encampment grows. I am devastated that there is now a potential that part of those woods will be removed due to the encampment. There is also a daycare 3 houses from mine as well as several children who I have seen play around the woods and should be able to without fear of an encampment and being hurt. I will happily provide any needed info, picts I have, etc.

Leaf Collection

2101 E Woodstock PL

Case Date:
11/7/2023

I live on Woodstock Place, and several of my neighbors have leaf-blown their leaves into great piles along the street. I'm concerned that the street has been narrowed for traffic and that the leaves will be washed down into the sewers and cause backups. There was a yard sign in the yard nearest High Street about no leaf collection this year, but evidently it has been ignored. Can my neighbors be compelled to mulch or collect their leaves before they turn into a slick mess this winter?

Debris Removal (Sand, General Street Debris)

So Hamilton won't do anything about the log pile mess between Arden and Greenbriar... "it's Duke / it's their contractor". OK, fine. You want to avoid dealing with problems YOU (Hamilton) have created. Do you want to do anything about all the felled street tree stumps and the problems they have created? I'm trying to mow around your stumps, but your garbage efforts have left large ruts, logs, and rocks around the stumps that are killing my mower. Meanwhile, TWO MONTHS later I'm still dealing with your garbage decisions, lazy refuse, and ugly mess left between stages of your extended endless programs of the "activity trail". FINISH IT.

The public works department of this city is a disgrace. We were promised Grimes/Walnut would not be closed until the Country Club lane between Walnut and Rodgers was fixed. We were lied to. It's impossible to leave our homes and get anywhere in the city AS IT IS NOW. And yet, you are about to close more intersections on this side of town. It's pathetic. 1/4th of your town is stuck in traffic for 30 to 50 minutes longer ONE WAY. We literally had a discussion tonight about how we were going to get groceries and get to and from work anymore. It's almost unlivable here and it's going to get worse if you don't cancel this moronic construction projects until THE ONES ALREADY IN PROGRESS are complete. Take the money loss from your horrid planning, own up to your complete and utter failures, and WAIT until things are done before starting more disastrous work.

Thank you Jeff & Cody for a job well done repairing/patching the area where the street meets our driveway! This is my first time using UReport. I did not expect such a quick response to the UReport I submitted Friday evening. Your courteous & polite personalities represent the City of Bloomington well! I very much appreciate all you do! Thanks again! Lori Brenner

John Hamilton is not performing well. Here are some failures: 1) high speed internet 2) clueless about military vehicle acquisition 3) UDO and more generally his `3-ring binder' nonsense 4) mismanagement of farmer's market strife I have never voted for a Republican in 38 year but I'm writing to the GOP to see if they can put forward a moderate.

I biked downtown this afternoon for a trip to the public library. Upon arrival I discovered that every space in the bike racks surrounding the library were taken by Veo scooters. Attempting to move a scooter to park my bike was extremely difficult, as the scooter wheels immediately locked up, and scooters are simply to heavy to lift and move. Allowing a private scooter company to completely monopolize all available bike parking around the public library is not acceptable. Why is this allowed? Could the rules around scooters in the city be reviewed and this specific issue addressed? To clarify, I don't believe users had parked the scooters here. It seems as if they were deployed and staged in these spots. Thank you.

It would be cool if our area didn’t lose power as much. But with as much as the traffic lights here go out you’d think y’all could get a battery or somethin

Was not informed of military exercise that took place overnight from 07Jun to 08Jun. The noise from the plane/chopper was alarming & was loud enough to rattle windows. It also continued extremely late into the night (~ 2:30 am) which was a significant noise disturbance during quiet hours. City did not provide notice that (1) this was going to occur or (2) the timing of the exercise.
