Is it really true that the city plans to prohibit right turns onto Indiana Ave from Third St? If so, we need new city officials.

I buried hundreds of what is referred to as orgonite in the community and over time have come to the conclusion that the stuff is a public menace as it takes away a certain magic that is essential for a decent living. I buried over 20 around the power station at north Dunn just above the railroad tracks and probably as many around trinorth middle school as well as around the vectren office on madison. I believe the community would greatly benefit if these things could be located and removed. I bought a metal detector to find them but it doesn't seem able to locate them. I was thinking maybe ground penetrating radar or some other high tech solution will succeed. Please take this seriously, this stuff is unacknowledged by the government as a problem probably because it is so easy to make and disperse. I believe I have created a unique problem in bloomington that requires government action. I can't say specifically what orgonite does or removes from the environment but I know it does quite a lot and I and probably you though you don't know it have had just about enough of it. Please take me seriously, I want to get this stuff out of all our lives and restore normalcy to the bloomington area. thank you, Michael Donoghue

Street Lights

Case Date:
6/16/2015

I am a resident living in between the intersection of 8th and Dunn and 8th and Indiana. I recently graduated from the Kelley School of Business-- which is less than a 15 minute walk from my residence. I often had class or group/club meetings that left me walking home when it was dark out. Luckily, for the 10 minutes I walked on campus, I had a well-lit path. However, for the 5 minutes it took to walk down 8th street, I had to use my phone as a flashlight to guide my way; everyone I passed also had to do the same thing. I should have written a request a long time ago-- but I didn't and the point is simple. Please, add lighting to 8th street and the surrounding streets. Everyone deserves to feel safe, and adding lights is necessary, and quite frankly, overdue. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Street Lights

Case Date:
6/16/2015

As an IU student who lived off campus this past year, I often felt unsafe in several parts of Bloomington because it was so dark. I strongly urge for the city of Bloomington to install lights on not only street corners but in the middle of streets. My neighbors house was broken into and that could have been avoided by the simple addition of a street light. My house was on a 10th street but even one street in was completely unlit. It is a serious safety concern for all citizens.

Blocked Sidewalk

Case Date:
1/13/2021

On the west side of Rogers just south of 11th Street. The trouble is they really need to be clearing this three or four times a day because the unimproved driveway situation is really severe. But instead they don't even clear it when they install the barricades and go home at night. So it's always always a mess. If you meet it in the middle of the day they've just driven giant tractor tired equipment over it dumping literally a pound of mud with every trip. If you come in the evening or the morning it's still messy cuz they didn't clear it when they installed the barricades when they went home at night. should I just stop reporting these I don't know if I'm wasting your time I just figure that when a construction project uses a sidewalk as a driveway that doesn't mean that every pedestrian should get muddy feet or slide on sand. Is that insane? Am I asking too much? I'm clearly asking too much. But just tell me do you want to hear about this?

Charles A. Northrop, Assistant Director of Real Estate Administration, Real Estate Department, Office of the Vice President for Capital Planning and Facilities, Indiana University, advised me on 4/13/21 to contact the City of Bloomington Public Works Department to confirm the ownership of the unmaintained embankment bordering 719 E. Hunter Ave. and the space that had been the backyard of the demolished house at 720 E. Atwater Ave. While he has stated that this part of the embankment is an unpaved public right-of-way alley, he also suggested that its ownership might require confirmation. Such confirmation would enable me to determine the validity of the trespassing allegations of 719 E. Hunter Ave. tenants on 3/19/21 that resulted in the dispatch of Bloomington Police Department officers to the site.
