The situation I reported a couple of weeks ago has worsened. The big, commercial trash bins are stored on the University St. sidewalk, often open and with trash in them. This is a trash obstacle course to use the University-side sidewalk of this property.
# 180789. It has been 1 month and nothing has changed. Except that school is back in session, and the BHSN boys and girls cross country teams try to run in our neighborhood. But it is very difficult, since tree limbs and bushes are growing over the sidewalk. We live in a.nice neighborhood and this is ridiculous. I will give it 1 more week before I get my chain saw and take care of it myself. Then I will send the city of Bloomington a Hefty bill.
Overgrowth at the stop sign. Covering a portion of the sidewalk. Intersection of 6th & Maple. The overgrowth is at south east corner of the intersection.
the sidewalk on the west side of fairview st, about 100 ft south of the b-line (along the southern property line of 615 N Fairview) has bamboo all the way across it. sorry about the kid blocking the view. i couldnt get him go stop clowning. thanks!
The street view is fully obstructed by weeds at the intersection of Euclid and 2nd street. When going South on Euclid and attempting to make a left hand turn (east) on 2nd, you cannot see oncoming traffic to your left due to vegetation between the sidewalk and the road. I have almost gotten in an accident twice at this intersection due to pulling out and jot seeing an oncoming car which was blocked by the weeds. This is especially a problem for cars versus trucks due to the height.
The sidewalk on the west side of Fairview has been made hazardous by the property owner at 708 W 12th Street neglecting maintenance of their property for many years. The plants are growing into the public right-of-way, and the pine needle litter is so deep that when it is wet it is causing a slip hazard. It's been like this for at least three years and I am tired of neglectful property owners renting out their houses for income and not being good neighbors.
The vegetation obstructing the sidewalk on the Maxwell side of the house has been successfully cut down. But the groundcover still occupies about a third of the width of the sidewalk. Please ask the homeowner to edge or pull up the weeds so that we can use the full width of the sidewalk on Maxwell.
Tree needs trimmed. You can't walk down the sidewalk.
Weeds are obstructing the sidewalk and the view of oncoming traffic on w 2nd street. This is next to 918 W 2nd street
# 180789, FIRST REPORTED JULY 28th, NOTHING has been done. Neighbors are now ripping off limbs and putting them in the middle of the sidewalk. Seriously, why has this issue not been taken care of. From almost the beginning of our neighborhood, all the way north to Acuff, the sidewalk has limbs and bushes growing over it. Make these people take care of their property.
