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50 number we were aiming for before Omicron", which makes me think we aiming for below 100 cases now and this site is outdated, but I have no idea because the info on this page is confusing and suspect.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.

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.

I understand hands being tied with the homeless population but I find it very unnerving and scary that the tent campers next to transit are standing at the fence of the parking lot and peeing while the employees of transit are present and across the street where there is a park which could have children present…..I’m so upset that this is allowed to continue and I can’t walk into the office without being exposed to some random man

Hello - I live up the street from the B-line bridge that crosses over Grimes. What started as one tent has become a full-blown camp, and the conditions have caused me to feel unsafe using that portion of the B-line trail. The last time I used the bridge the urine smell was quite strong and there was a man having a bad trip outside the encampment. We've been awoken by yelling and general disturbance from members of the camp and their dogs, and the general disturbance has caused me and several neighbors with kids to not use that portion of the B-line (not using the Switchyard Park playground and dog park, or driving there instead of walking). It's reached a point that we're uncomfortable - I hope I don't sound unsympathetic to their situation. I don't have a good solution either!

If the military and police were planning to engage in night training this evening, WHY was the public on the south side of Bloomington not notified? Many residents were scared and are extremely angry they were not informed. People were outside wondering what was going on. The helicopters were flying incredibly low over our houses, literally shaking our homes. Social media was lit up with reports of loud booms, police, shooting, and people were scared. This was irresponsible for Bloomington residents to not be notified.

Regarding your change of name of Good Friday in the name of diversity. You seem to think diversity is a one way street, favorable only to non-Christians. You are a fool if you think that your name change will do anything more than make you anathema to, possibly, the majority of your constituents. See what you attain by diversity then!

I was alarmed to se 1/2 the adults and 1/2 of the kids not wearing mask this weekend at switchyard park. At the least there should be signs posted to demand mask wearing and or area patrolled to enforce it. Thanks.

the vote to remove the homeless camp at Seminary park was, by any moral opinion, disgusting, reprehensible, and downright evil. how dare you sit in your offices and make the decision to leave hundreds of people without any form of shelter, on the streets, at the beginning of winter. i understand an alternative was given night of, but those people are in the position they’re in because the government has proven time and time again that it will fail them when they need the help. you have proven this point to them once again. they had no reason to accept your handout, shame on all of you.

I do not support an increase in the local state income tax. This is money that I worked for. Not you. You do not have the right to take our money for your own agenda.

Prosecutor and Mayors view on taxes that were in paper the week ending July 19th. I was out of town all week and read the newspaper and for the first time in my 72 years living here was embarrassed to say this was my hometown and am ready to move out of this town.
