My daughter and her roommates feel unsafe on their street. After a month of hearing gunshots (police said fireworks) and the recent attack. I would like some action to help keep them safe.
E 12th Street, particularly west of the Village Pantry, is extremely dark. Given the recent break in, there should be lights in place on this street.
Some minor brickwork needed in front of Village Deli. Nothing urgent. No obstruction.
Street light is out. Was reported 2 weeks ago and not fixed. This is a bus stop for school children, both elementary and secondary. Since the time change it is much more hazardous. Would hate to see an accident.
Pile of gravel adjacent to alley, not contained and spilling out.
Street light has been on 24hr/day for some time--timer issue?
I would like to ask the City of Bloomington to begin considering steps to put ordinances, rules, regulations on these Bird Scooters that have infiltrated our city. I have seen almost every person riding in violation of the safety rules the company urges. There have been two people on a scooter, all of them without helmets, and riding on sidewalks/all over campus. They are getting parked on campus bike racks, cluttering up side walks, and generally are unsafe and without any kind of ordinance in place, could only cause potential risk to both car drivers, pedestrians, cyclists etc. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-45596449 There are known deaths on these modes of transportation. Indianapolis enacted an ordinance after unsafe crashes had occurred. Bloomington needs to be aware of the risk and make stations for these scooters with agreements on proper use.

Active construction site with no visible permit present. Alleys have been blocked off in both directions. Are there % greenspace requirements for new construction? It appears they have dugup the entire lot. Are there onsite parking requirements for the number of tenants expected? The on-street parking places in this neighborhood are already full of cars. Is there a height restriction? Will there be or has there been an opportunity for public comment about any proposal for this site? Will the number of parking passes issued be limited to the actual number of residents? This all seems a bit third-world...
