The city uses facebook to announce news that it does not post on its website e.g. letter of intent with Meridian. I don't have a facebook account. Why is the city of Bloomington (indirectly) subsidizing and promoting Facebook by putting information on Facebook that it does not provide on it public website.
https://bloomington.in.gov/covid-19 This page seems to have been left to rot and the info there is misleading or completely inaccurate. For instance: "Effective July 1, Bloomington Transit will resume the" This appears to be from last year, I guess, judging but the bullet points that follow and do include a year. But it reads like this July (and will every year unless it's clarified). The missmatch of some dates having a year attached and other not is, frankly, baffling. "COVID-19 Press Conferences A press conference is held every other Friday at 1:15 p.m. The next event will take place on July 30, 2021." ? "The Monroe County Health Department issued mask mandate that is effective until Monroe County has fewer than 50 cases per 100,000 AND is in the blue advisory status." These seems contradicted by Mayor Hamilton's comment "We're not down below 100 or to the 50 number we were aiming for before Omicron", which makes me think we aiming for below 100 cases now and this site is outdated, but I have no idea because the info on this page is confusing and suspect. This is the COVID-19 Landing Page. This isn't an obscure page tucked away out of site somewhere. I went looking for information and it's hard to believe The City actually cares about COVID if it can't be bothered to update its own website.
Nathan Dahm is seeking to end asymmetric post cold war Chinese %10 import Chemical Psychological warfare. I hope the city is making note of the court cases and or pending up coming legislation. More so after city employee David Parkhurst responded to my petitions as unfounded stating such water treatments standards are harmless and there is no difference between Calcium v/s Sodium fluoride. But then again he is amoung the fools who supported Huston South Project 2,154 acres of herbicide in the water shed for Lake Monroe
Homeless living behind unoccupied home with trash and fires. One person named Bob related to the property owner is allowed to camp there but in his absence others have taken up living behind home. Neighbors are now complaining. Mike Harper (812-360-5782) related to the absentee owner occasionally cuts the grass.
Homeless encampment starting Not sure who’s land it is on
Homeless asleep at private property and along bline.
Homeless sleeping on the sidewalk again next to All-Star driving school. Police chase them off yesterday, why is it allowed that they still keep coming back? They have also trashed the bus shelter on Henderson Street next to Brandon Court Apartments.
Running north on Bline with my daughter at ~10:30 am was verbally harassed by a group of 4 men who appeared to be unhoused gathered by the tables adjacent to Wonderlab garden. Comments were of a sexual nature. It would be appreciated if you could step up patrols in that area. Thank you.
This specific incident involved a Lime scooter, but I urge you to please ban ALL motorized scooters from Bloomington. My family and I were just coming back from the airport yesterday when we saw a young woman collide head-first into a car in cross-traffic (without a helmet because of course, none of these scooters come with helmets) because her brake stopped working. This was no one's fault but the manufacturers'. But given how much they make, I'm doubtful much will come out of it if she were to take legal action. There have been so many accidents (some fatal, as you know) in so many cities, including ours, due to these companies dumping scooter after scooter onto seemingly every busy sidewalk, and it is completely within your control to ban them here--after all, Indianapolis did. I would like to know your reasons for allowing them to continue to be used in Bloomington when we know how dangerous they have and will continue to be, as long as they are on the streets.. Just how many more accidents must we see and hear about until something concrete is done?
Scooter parked in Winslow development near my house at 2227 S Bent Tree Drive. Has been there for 2 to 3 days.
