I’m following up on 204624, which I reported last week. I was happy to see that a railing had been installed with 48 hours of my filing the complaint, and I know my complaint had nothing to do with the railing getting installed. I’m asking that the city pay more attention to these uneven sidewalks and require property owners to mark them with paint, cones or, in the best case scenario, railings. The uneven sidewalks seem to be likely a violation of the ADA. There was a similar situation in front of Sweet Greens before they finally installed a railing, and there is still a similar situation in front of CVS on Kirkwood. Thank you.

The city did a storm drain project last week and left a large bag of conrete waste on the sidewalk. They removed signage related to construction. People use electric wheelchairs, strollers, carts, etc. often on Blair, but now they can't on the east side of the street, and there's no signage to warn people to cross the sidewalk before the obstacle. It's been like this all week - is it possible for the city to remove the (very heavy!) bag of waste concrete?

The one section of sidewalk is below the other two adjoining sections creating difficulty for those with mobility problems as well as older people. It is hazardous for those with vision problems who might not be able to discern the sudden in drop.

Once again Street Department is repaving roads with barely any milling work done, this time on South Washington. Milling down 1' strips less than .5" at the curb and not milling at all in the middle of the road. The "repaving" here is just piling up over an inch of fresh asphalt on top of un-milled asphalt. This raises the grade of the road, which also means curbs are now effectively lower and storm drains that should be at grade are now sitting in a pit of asphalt.

At the intersection of College and 2nd St.. Westbound traffic and the southbound turn lane are getting virtually no green time at the light. It was literally five seconds of green light. Considering we all have to go south at that intersection due to construction, it needs to be addressed. Thank you.

This is a thank you to the Streets mowing crew. (I listed "debris removal" as the issue because I think that is likely to get to the right people.) This morning while walking my children to the first day of school, I saw City of Bloomington Streets mower machines taking out all the overgrowth at the railroad property on either side of the Fairview/11th Street underpass under the railroad. Thank you! The sidewalk is so much clearer!
