People treat this traffic light as an optional stop sign. Even if the light is solid red (not blinking), if cars have seen a pedestrian finish the crossing or don't observe a pedestrian they continue through this red light. BPD could set up in the switchyard parking lot and rake in $ from all of the traffic violations here. More enforcement and maybe making the light always green (unless a pedestrian is crossing) would force car traffic to better respect this light. No one takes it seriously as is and I have seen multiple bikers/skaters/walkers almost get hit as they make the cross when the crosswalk is still clearly lit up.
Multiple junk vehicles. Corner of W Grey Street and N North Street.
Abandoned looking vehicles and parts, engines all over the place. It looks like someone is living inside the building. Fluids all over the ground. I don't like looking out my window to see the parking lot and grass area covered in broken down vehicles. They are constantly working on these vehicles outside at all hours, playing music loud enough I can hear it in my home, and I have observed them on numerous occasions driving erratically into/out of the parking lot almost causing accidents. This is not only an eyesore to our beautiful community, but it is also a nuisance to those of us that live nearby.
The sidewalk on both the front and side of the property at 1700 E Camby Lane (southeast corner of Camby and Durham) is obstructed by low hanging branches and outgrowing vegetation. The HOA for the neighborhood has been notified and hasn't acted to rectify this, other than to send a letter to property owners mentioning overgrowth among other general comments; this hasn't resulted in any action by the homeowner. It's not possible to walk along the sidewalk without walking into tree limbs and/or bushes, so pedestrians must walk in the street on both the front and side sidewalks.
I'm tired of the noise and late-night activity. Since January, my neighbors and I have been subjected to stereo blasting and cars parked along our street. It all comes from the house next door. These hooligans seem to wait until 11 pm to turn their stereo. We have seen the police knock on the door, but no one responds.
An abandoned car has been sitting in the backyard for several years.
This orange neon was left in front of our house a week and a half ago. The owner said it would only be a couple of days but we haven’t seen or spoken to him since. We park our 2 vehicles in front of the house and this car is making it difficult.
We've been bothered recently during our regular evening visits to Switchyard Park to see a significant vagrant population who are smoking, drinking, and we're pretty sure we just witnessed a drug deal at the park pavillion. The police, so conveniently located in the park, need to actually be out patrollimg it!
The unhoused encampment behind the IMI concrete plant on private property has continued to get out of control. This has been cleared out already and has now grown to the largest size to date. We have seen 50+ people on a daily basis back and forth. More and more of the unhoused have been cutting through private property on Cherokee Drive, leaving trash in yards, starting fights in the area, and continuing to scope out an abandoned house at the end of Cherokee to which the cops have been called out to at least twice. There is a brand new subdivision being built at the end of Cherokee and the area is finally being built up along with the addition of Switchyard Park. Bloomington has numerous services for the unhoused but camping on private property and causing issues to nearby neighborhoods should not be tolerated. The fear in the area is that this is becoming more and more unsafe as this encampment continues to grow in size. Please address this increasingly dangerous situation as soon as possible.
