Ureport #203425 erroneously closed by Mike Arnold with message “Not valid. Saw Virginia creeper but no poison ivy”. It is the tree on East side of Fairview, adjacent to intersection with Howe, next to 620 Fairview. This time I provided a photo of poison ivy. There is also Virginia creeper, but there is much more poison ivy. Leaves are as large as adult hand, in groups of three, lacks the fine serrations of Virginia creeper leaves, and notice small green fruits. Also I had a skin reaction when I first walked into it haha. Please reach out to me if needed and I can point out the poison ivy. I just don’t want anyone else to get urushiol on their face.

With the construction going on in the Building Trades Park homeless people are starting to hang out in the church parking lot across the street. The security patrols for the park used to check out that parking lot but have stopped since the construction has started. It would be nice if they swung through occasionally while the construction is going on.

Tree adjacent to east sidewalk on Fairview (near intersection with Howe) is covered in poison ivy. The poison ivy is dangling over the sidewalk at face- and shin-height. I unfortunately realized this was poison ivy the hard way. The vines appear woody and hardy, its leaves are very large, and it seems to be fruiting. Please remove before someone else walking on the sidewalk brushes by it and has a serious reaction to contacting the plant.

Neighbors at 3:38 South Maple Street Bloomington, have neglected mowing their lawn this year, particularly their backyard. It's chest high for me. It's unsightly and I fear they may be unwanted vermin. Is there a way to appeal to them too clean it up? By the way, they also own a large dog who they let out into the backyard once or twice a day and don't clean up after it. Many thanks.

West Smith Avenue, between Buckner and Davidson is eroding. There's trenches on either side. The storm drain at the corner where the stop sign is is sinking at least 3 feet down, it gets filled with debris, there's dirt and everything pouring into it, so it floods. Drivers are cutting corners on both sides, both sides of Smith. If you're traveling west, or if you're turning right onto West Smith, they're cutting a corner, driving over dirt in the yard, and that's contributing to more debris.
Please consider this road for resurfacing.

Oak tree between east sidewalk and street. Black cord hanging from tree, seems electrical. Appears to have cut ends on the ground. I didn’t attempt to see if they’re live.
