Strong smell coming from factory on Hillside

There is a used car/truck business combined with a body shop business in our residential neighborhood. I believe the address is 1306 South Palmer Avenue, but I'm not sure of that number. If you come to the 1300 block of South Palmer Avenue, you cannot not notice what I'm talking about. Used cars and pickup trucks are routinely delivered, then refurbished at this, and then sold. This kind of activity should never be allowed in a residential neighborhood. I'm a homeowner living nearby, I pay city taxes to live in this neighborhood, and I beseech you to stop this illegal activity. This area is not zoned for business, it is not an industrial area; it is a neighborhood. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I expect a resolution to this problem soon.

I believe the Pierogi Place is operating a food truck without a license. There are no license plates (or registration) on the food truck which are required to get a license, and they are parking the truck in Gentry Estates neighborhood and dumping their gray water tank.

Sunday afternoons, even in the downtown area, should be a chance the peaceful enjoyment the premises of one's own abode. Today, however, the noise from the sidewalk musicians who are somehow sponsored by the record store on the east side of Walnut just south of Sixth Street, makes any peaceful enjoyment impossible. I have my windows shut, even though I should be able to have them open on a day as warm as this, and even though the windows are shut, the noise is quite intrusive. Does Bloomington not have a prohibition against this kind of use of the public right of way? Don't you need a permit, or can any business just say: Hey come play the drums and electric guitar out in front of my shop? More maybe they do have a permit. If they do, they should post it so everyone can see that it is allowed. I understand a certain amount of weird noises are part and parcel of downtown living. But this seems like an abuse of the downtown public sphere. Thanks for whatever you are able to do to help make downtown Bloomington actually livable.

Scooter entirely blocking the sidewalk. There’s got to be a way to penalize either of the company or the user. There’s no accountability and that’s a problem.

Someone hacked all of these trees and limbed them up a ridiculous amount. Feels sooo barren now. Why would the city endorse this level of cutback on large sycamore trees? The canopy is going to be so high above a pedestrian that there is no feeling at all left of being in a wooded street scape. Very disappointing after all this work and money spent.
