N Forrest Ave between E Cottage Grove Ave and E 11th. Multiple cars parked here on a daily basis where it says no parking. This is supposed to be a two lane road, but is not safely wide enough for traffic going both directions with cars parked here, and there is no where to move out of the way if two cars are traveling opposite directions on this road, causing a traffic hazard.
Late model car parked in yellow zone on Maple at W 7th. Makes it impossible for two cars to go through at once. Also limits visibility for cars going North on Maple. This is also a place where a school bus turns every day. Car parks here all the time. Behind this car is a motorcycle under a tarp that has been parked for at least six months.
Hello! There has been an RV parked in our neighborhood street for around a month, and does not have tags. Individuals come and go from it frequently, to the house it's parked in front of and to the RV. I am concerned about the safety it presents to people in our area. This is on Orris Drive off of 11th Street. Thank you! Katie
We're moving to B'ton in July on S. High St. Our moving van will need to block S. High for 4-5 hours on a weekday; do we need a permit to have the truck block a bus route, and what is the cost if yes?
Hi, I tried calling but never heard back about this issue. On June 17th I parked at a meter across from the Bloomington Bagel Company. I had an appointment in the Child Support Courts at 9:45 so I got there about 9:30, put my card in the meter, I thought I put in for an hour and then left just before 10:30. I rarely park downtown and normally use changes so I wasn't exactly sure how the meters worked. I even hit the cancel before I left but it did nothing. When I checked my statement I had been charged 10.00. Is there a way to prove how much time I was there so that I am only charged for the actual time I was there? Again, I tried calling Amy (who I was told handled such issues), but I have yet to hear back.
abandoned car
Abandoned vehicle at 1602 W 7th.
Today around 5:15 - 5:20 pm I had an unfortunate altercation with a City of Bloominton employee. He appeared to be 5’8” to 5’10” with short black hair, a blue city shirt and dark shorts. He was stopped at the garage near Scotty’s at Walnut and 7th street and had several garbage cans in the back of a City of Bloomington pick up truck as well as another worker who sitting in the bed of the truck with the trash cans. My wife needing to use the ATM stopped the car in the entrance and got out. This employee told her she couldn’t do this, so she said “ok” and got back into the car. At this point, still needing to use the ATM I hopped out to use the ATM myself while my wife circled the block. The city employee at that point moved toward me aggressively asking me several times if I “wanted a ticket”. My wife did not move the car yet because the employee moved in front of our car so rapidly and aggressively that she thought he was going to punch me. I explained that she was going to circle while I used the ATM, and he glared at me and walked away haughtily. I asked him for his name several times and he ignored me. This is unacceptable behavior from anyone, let alone a city employee. I felt threatened by this individual and do not think he should be working for the city I pay taxes to.
A Ford Country Squire Station wagon appears to have been abandoned on the street in front on my house in the 1200 block of South Washington Street. The car has not been moved since July 24th. The Indiana license plate number is AC123K. This appears to be a violation of city code 15.04.020. Thanks for looking into this matter. Jenny Bauer 1223 S. Washington Street [email protected]
Called to report that parking meter #E5TH200A (on Kirkwood, near the corner of Washington St.) is releasing coins back out but still registering parking minutes.
