The City owns TWO Historic Buildings. The Waldron AND The Banneker. One serves white residents. The other serves Black residents. One is getting a $500k renovation. The other desperately needs roof, HVAC, windows, flooring, masonry and drainage repair. Recover forward should honor ALL residents of Bloomington. Black and white. Invest in The Banneker.
A tree in the front lawn of this property has two large broken branches that overhang the street, and they've been so for a couple months now. A lot of people walk under these branches on their way to and from Highland Village Park, and it's only a matter of time before one or both of these branches detach and fall onto the street. Currently, you can hear them creaking and see them swaying with the wind. They need to be safely removed before they snap off.
Lots of trash dumped on slope along the b-line trail between light posts 155 and 156.
Trash and debris all over b line side at 432 s college avenue
There is a lot of trash, some of it potentially hazardous (motor oil, parts of appliances) between the Rail Trail and the fence, starting at the marker .5 miles South of Country Club Road. Some of it has clearly been there for years and is partially buried. We were removing garlic mustard and took some of the smaller trash but a truck and a crew of people will be needed to haul it away.
There was a homeless camp in the woods by Clear Creek at the end of Pinewood Drive. The people have moved on, as all their tents have been removed. However, there is a lot of remaining trash. Is it possible to have sanitation clean up this area? Please let me know if I need to contact someone else for this request. Thank you!
I'm giving the City a $50 citation. It's been more than 24 hours since the snow stopped and the B-Line Trail along the 2nd Street Kroger is snow covered. Unacceptable. This is not the only part of the trail like this. Great work. With more snow and continued cold weather, the problem won't just go away. Grab a shovel, let's go.
There is a cut out across both lanes of Rogers Street in front of the switch yard construction that is pretty significant, but seems worse when heading north.
Parking lot striping on this lot in Bryan Park and other parking lot just north of this one on Henderson is very hard to see. Can you please re-stripe these parking lots so spaces are more evident? Thank you.
A tree at the corner of Thatcher Court and Winston Street in Hyde Park has lots of dead branches that have been falling in recent thunderstorms into the traffic lane and on the sidewalk. It needs to be trimmed or removed for safety.
