Kidnappers and house buying scams! Now that we have your attention -- please remove these ugly / junk signs for escape rooms and house buying phone numbers from Winslow & Walnut. On the north east corner there are five - count them, five - signs posted on utility poles and next to the road and sidewalk. This is absurd.

Homeowners at 2502 have fence that is falling apart into the property of 2504. Their "sheds" in their backyard are wired for electricity but undoubtedly not to code. Not to mention the major health hazard from the raccoons and opossum that come and go from the shantytown as they please. Fire hazard, health hazard, eyesore.
Tree branches obstructing view at the corner of Smith Road and E. St. Remy Drive intersection. Approximate address is 2520 S Smith Road. People attempting to turn left on to S Smith Road from E St Remy Dr have an obstructed view due to the tree branches. Requesting City of Bloomington trim back the branches to aid in improving this obstruction.
Lots of vegetation across sidewalk on south side of E. Second St. east of Woodscrest Dr.
I had a horrible near-miss this morning as I was biking near the freeway. A grain truck (the kind with three sections) headed East passed me on the left with less than a foot clearance and then cut me off getting into the southbound on-ramp. The two vehicles following did the exact same thing. The other day someone in a car chewed me out for taking the lane and "Didn't I care about all this traffic?!" This intersection is on my way to work and it just needs to be fixed. It is the worst part of my commute and is so dangerous from negligent, unobservant, and angry drivers. The area from Liberty to Wynnedale is awful. There are sections of bike lanes which end abruptly, forcing people on a bike to either take the lane (if they have the confidence to do so) or share the lane with far less than three feet. The wide sidewalks are not good because drivers turning onto the on-ramps aren't looking for pedestrians or bicyclists on the sidewalk and there are lots of driveways to cross. If a bicyclist has the right to be on the street then there needs to be accommodations, signs, or better infrastructure to make it a non-lethal option.
Suggesting that a speed hump be put on E. Eastgate Lane, in between N. Hillsdale Dr. and the bypass. Cars fly through our street to and from the bypass, and there is a blind corner at Hillsdale and Eastgate.
On December 30, 2023, a camping trailer arrived on the property and appears to be occupied, potentially in violation of city codes 20.03.030 (g) Accessory Uses and Structures. (1) Generally (C) Prohibitions. and 20.04.060 (n) Use of Parking Areas. (5) Storage, Occupancy, or Similar Uses. While the parking and occupancy of the trailer itself raise concerns, my main concern lies with the overall condition of the property. Over the past few months, there has been a noticeable accumulation of debris on the driveway, in bushes, and throughout the yard. This includes items such as tires, biking equipment, and various other objects scattered about, which detract from the character and property values of the neighborhood. I understand that personal property management is an individual choice, but the current state of the property at 2603 S Bryan St significantly impacts the surrounding environment and creates a less-than-desirable atmosphere for neighbors. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could investigate this matter and take appropriate action.
