Im.very concerned about living at Governor Park Apartments. There is it designated smoking area right next to the building that is going into the windows in that cigarette smoke including marijuana it is technically 8 ft away from an exit but not 25 feet away from Windows and bits. I have contacted numerous people about this including hand, Aubrey through report. She said that it could be against code but they have to see it in person the thing is is that if you come here there's not one time where there is not some sort of incident or somebody's passed out at the smoking Circle and if you came and saw you would see that the cans that are used are not proper cans with trash in them and we are lightning and starting fires because people are not extinguishing them out and I really want somebody official to come and look at this problem all you have to be and look at even if somebody is not out there smoking which they're always is is the fact that how close the smoking area is to the building and how it's coming into the windows I know that this is again but may concern is the fire department just came tonight because a guy was passed out drunk one of the tenants and he was smoking a cigarette he's already started one fire. I have wrote numerous complaints to Many concern letters i have documented to my Lordlord and have it documented and nothing gets resolved. Its only getting worse.. I know or a fact that the smoking area at Governor Park Apartments is still on the property even though the claim that it is not the tens being used have no lids cigarette butts are not being extinguished out people are putting paper trash in it therefore starting fires accidentally. When it rains the cigarettes overflow and go everywhere not to mention when it's windy the can will knock over go everywhere including a lit cigarette which that area is right next to a field. It won't let me attach multiple pictures but zi have documenting of a small fire and the can smoldering.please help me. The fire department isn't helping..

I spoke with a Brittany but before I could respond she closed the case number. Dear Audrey Brittingham, Thank you for your response regarding Case #209518. I would like to request that someone visit the site to inspect the designated smoking area and the cigarette disposal containers. Because the apartment complex has established a permanent smoking area immediately outside this non-smoking building, violations are constant and can be observed at any time. The police have responded to this location multiple times due to fires caused by smoking. They informed me that this is a government or HAND (Housing and Neighborhood Development) issue; however, each time I report it, I am referred to a different department. Is it possible for a representative to see this firsthand without me calling the non-emergency line? Additionally, would the Health Department be able to assist, or is there another official who can verify the proximity of this smoking circle to the building? I have numerous photos available to provide as proof if needed. I look forward to your guidance on who can specifically address this ongoing safety concern. Best regards, Jessica Hanna

Four hours of smoke now from someone who seems to burn leaves in Stiers Park (sort of a tiny gated community). The location is right near High Street and Viva. And has to be awful for people just east of the burn. Two houses to the north, we get a lot of smoke in our windows. Everything withing a quarter mile has a smoke smell. It may have been the same household last weekend. And in previous years. My understanding is that burning is not permitted in Bloomington (and most municipalities), except for pit fires. I wasn't sure whether to report it to the Fire Dept. or Police. It is a health hazard. It is also a nuisance. And though it seems to be tended, it's not the safest thing in the world.
