Bloomington, IN, USA

Case Date:

I was towed out of my IU dorm (I have a parking permit, I was simply outside the allowed hours to park in that specific spot) and I’m not exactly contesting the tow, which was non-consensual by the way, but the fact that I am being charged well over $200 for fees for the tow them housing the car for mere hours. I read the city law and it says something along the lines of I shouldn’t be charged greater than $135 for a tow, so im a bit confused here where the extra hundred dollars or so is coming from. I also spoke with some city of Bloomington parking officials and the company that towed me, Wray automotive, doesn’t have a license apparently, so I’m not sure what’s up with that. She told me to file this u report. Please get back to me when you can, thank you!

Just noticed G5 is launched a climate dashboard for the city of Bloomington. Why don't you fix the fucking traffic lights around town so you don't literally get stopped by every single lie in a row it's in this one goes green driving the speed limit you get to the next one it goes red

W Somersbe Pl, Bloomington, IN 47403, USA

Case Date:

To the east of Somersbe, people are camping in an area owned by the railroad, city, & county so nobody is taking responsibility. Trash (see pic), car has been removed, trash remains, human waste, dog waste, unleashed dogs, & fires. March 6, 2024, I was chased on the trail by an unstable person from the camping area, screaming “I’m going to get you.” I had to RUN & hide at a residence/business and they helped me. I now carry pepper spray. Who do we appeal to for help? This is an unsafe situation for the people camping as well as the neighbors, and toxic to our environment. Thank you

It is almost 10pm on Monday, April 15, and there is a dog barking nonstop back in the woods it sounds like by the Rail Trail. 20+ minutes of barking easily tonight alone. It is dark and I am not going to find out where it is exactly. This dog barks quite a bit at nights and believe it is coming from the homeless camps back there east of the Rail Trail. I have seen dogs back there in the daylight. Is there anyway to get this looked into so that there are not dogs in the woods at these illegal camps barking at night? There are noise ordinances, and ordinances against camping on City property, and these camps are a nuisance. Get them removed.

A large homeless camp has been made in the past 24 hours. There are at least 10 people and a large dog. They also have been having fires. The area is at the end of Pinewood Drive on the opposite side of Clear Creek. This is a parkland where volunteers are currently working on the removal of trash and invasive plant species.

3 issues 1. Drainage at 820 w rosewood gets clogged constantly. 6 neighbors assist in removing debris Was informed the city “should “ take care of this. It isn’t. 2 when fiber came in and ATT no longer need the piller type boxes in yards. They are sitting abandoned in yards can the city require them to be removed? They should be since no longer needed. 3. I had spent about 50$ for grass seed and topsoil when I removed shrubs. With the laying of fiber this was dug up and this area is a mess.

I believe the city of Bloomington can increase its tax revenues from various forms such as bringing in more residents and students or increasing the average spending of each resident. I am a MBA student at IU and I have a few ideas to help this beautiful city prosper.

Residents growing concerned about the force fit of the north west side of county for new jail complex location. Is the city council and administration working to advocate for a more centralized area? This should not be placed to impact commuters, the adjacent retirement homes and elderly and minor care facilities nearby, in addition to various homes and the adjacent community to this “north park” location. The south side of Bloomington received backing to prevent the rezone and placement of the facility there, which arguably is a better location than this new proposal! Will the Council and Administration be stepping up to get the County to consider alternate plans and locations? The karsts, adjacent quarries, and potential for park land to the north west should be considered as high priority instead of an incarceration center. We’re not in favor of increasing the jail size or this location!
