We received a phone call from a constituent who complained that the sidewalk by SpringHill that connects Morton and N College is EXTREMELY icy and she has witnessed numerous people falling at this location.
Street lamp in front of 501 N College (American German bank) is out. Duke Energy says it is not one of their lights.
Street signs missing at College/ 9th intersection.
Homeless people are again living in People’s Park. They’re using drugs, fighting, leaving trash everywhere, screaming and yelling, urinating and defecating and have taken over most of the benches and tables. It also appears that they are sleeping there overnight. We bought ice cream across the street and expected to have a nice Sunday afternoon in the park for thirty minutes or so… we tried sitting on the steps of a business on the opposite side of Dunn Street but the shrubbery nearby was probably soaked in urine based on the stench. We simply left at that point….. No other Indiana city of the same size and population has a homeless population of 1 % of that of Bloomington and that is directly attributable to the fact that Bloomington attracts these people by virtue of feeding them and enabling them unlike anywhere else in Indiana. I’ve lived in and near Bloomington since 1974 and this has simply gotten totally out of hand.
There is a non-working street lamp on South Dunn Street, between East Wylie and East Dodds St.
Complaint of consistent flooding on sidewalk near the corner of Cottage Grove Ave. and Dunn St. Didn't give exact location, but I have attached the image that was given to us. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DATEF9FXkAENs0R.jpg
Someone has painted over the yellow curb on College Avenue (just north of the railroad bridge) with gray paint, allowing cars to park on the street in this area. It looks suspicious - can can you please check to see if this was done by the City or if it was just somebody trying to create an illegal parking area for themselves?
Speed limit signs on the southwest corner of Grimes & S. Dunn street are obscured by overgrown tree limbs needing pruned back (thus making speed warning more visible and hopefully safer for both traffic and pedestrians).
Portal to Hades opening in the street. One of the largest, deepest potholes I've seen in this town.
Right at the intersection, Eastbound on 10th. Looks like it was patched and the patch got scattered. Thank you!
