There is a large trailer with someone living in it parked on Maple Street just North of 8th Street. It is taking up at least two parking spaces and they are using large chunks of limestone to keep it from rolling downhill. It has an extension cord going all the way across Maple Street plugged into a home. It has been parked there for at least three weeks.
Service vehicle above 7 ft in height regularly parked in this area.

Someone has been parked here for weeks... no license plate, extension cord running across road
coins stuck. could only use my credit card. this costs extra. too many meters with this problem. so I'm starting to document each time I get one. this is 3 out of 5 parking attempts have I had to use my credit card cuz there's coins stuck in the coin. I don't know if it means it's full of corns whether there's a different problem.
2297 Bloomfield Rd - Vehicle has been left in our apartment building's lot for months. Has expired tags and hasn't moved from what we can tell.
There is a car that has been parked on my adjacent street for the past 6 months and has not been moved, the tires are flat and I do not know if it has been abandoned. It is blocking 2 cars from passing. It is on Jordan's way in Hyde Parke right off of Olcott.

This car was reported by me in 2016, 2017, and around 2 weeks ago in 2019. In all of this time the car has not moved on it's own power. After I reported the last time and a policeman came and talked with the owner, it has been pushed about 12 feet closer to Fairview. It is not in front of our sidewalk anymore, yet since Hoosier Heights opened parking places are at a premium. Not sure what was said the last time but the license still shows 2016.
I just paid on line a bill for a parking citation I have never seen. I just received Notice of Overdue Citation. It would seem fair to receive and see the Citation before I am unable to appeal or threats of being sent to a collection agency. At this point It seems I have to trust the citation is real and not something made up by a local government. Was the violation in a no parking zone, was the meter not fed, was the meter broken or not accepting payments. Seems as if the rate for the violation is steep depending on the circumstance which I do not know. Policing for profit may be the way Bloomington pays for city services. Lastly, the comment I will likely make about your city when asked will not involve my student's education and life experiences when schooling in your city but rather the gouging and threatening over a citation that was unknown to me.
