Here's an idea: how about we move the jail complex to the current location of the B'ton transit center and we move the transit center to half of the North Park location. The bums who get early release for drugs / theft / violence are near Shalom / Wheeler / B-line where they are at home, and the buses are safely away from theft / vandalism of south Walnut B-line. Win-win, and we don't need to develop another $7 million park to house addicts.

I am submitting a complaint regarding what I believe was an unreasonable and predatory towing incident involving Tow Time Solutions and the Hampton Inn Bloomington located at 2100 N. Walnut Street in Bloomington, Indiana.
On April 23, 2026, I was a registered overnight guest at the Hampton Inn Bloomington. Prior to arrival, I completed digital check-in through Hilton’s mobile app and was issued a digital room key. Upon arriving at the hotel around 8:15 p.m., the front desk was unattended, so I proceeded directly to my room using the digital key provided through Hilton’s system.
At no point during the digital check-in process was I provided any direct notification that an additional parking registration step was required in order to avoid towing. The following morning, I discovered that my vehicle had been towed by Tow Time Solutions despite being a legitimate paying hotel guest.
I was required to pay approximately $300 to retrieve my vehicle and had to cancel work obligations, arrange transportation to the tow facility, and spend significant time resolving the issue.
My concern is not simply the existence of parking signage or permit policies, but rather the manner in which towing enforcement was conducted against an authorized guest without any reasonable verification process. The hotel had an active reservation, digital check-in record, and occupied room associated with my stay, yet neither the hotel nor the towing company appears to have made any attempt to verify whether the vehicle belonged to a registered guest before towing it.
Additionally, the hotel’s use of digital check-in creates a reasonable expectation that guests can complete arrival procedures without front desk interaction. Requiring an additional undocumented step while the front desk is unattended creates a foreseeable risk of confusion for guests and raises concerns regarding fairness, consumer protection, and accessibility.
I believe this situation reflects predatory towing practices because:
the vehicle belonged to a verified hotel guest,
no warning or attempt at guest verification occurred prior to towing,
the towing fee was excessive relative to the circumstances,
and the enforcement process appeared designed to maximize towing revenue rather than reasonably manage unauthorized parking.
I respectfully request review of the towing practices associated with this property and Tow Time Solutions, including whether reasonable consumer protections, guest verification procedures, and accessibility considerations are being followed before vehicles are towed from hotel property.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

The light sculpture just south of the Dimension Mill only has a few lights working. This is a beautiful sculpture, and relatively recently installed. In its current state, it gives a blighted look to the space in the evening. Please repair the light sculpture. Thank you.

Repeat accessibility issues with College Ave Kroger. They keep putting displays in the sidewalk going to both of their entrances. It is not accessible to make a wheelchair partially roll across the ramp in order to enter their store. I have reported to employees multiple times about several different seasonal displays, but they keep putting new displays back out there in spots that make their entrance inaccessible.

The scooter company keeps filling the bus shelter on the corner with scooters. It's pouring rain today, and this stop is heavily used. We shouldn't have to to heave a bunch of scooters out of the shelter in order to stand out of the rain to wait for the bus.
