City Performance

2405 E Rechter RD

Case Date:
3/27/2019

Hi, My name is Kevin Lettelleir. I operate a photography business in town and we heavily rely on the internet for just about everything. Over the past 6 months, I have read stories about other towns who have taken action and implemented fiber internet systems. As a small business owner in this town, it's very disheartening that the only internet providers available to us are Comcast and AT&T. Not only do these companies charge an excessive amount for extremely low internet speeds, but they also do not offer a Symmetrical connection. So while it says on paper that we are paying for a 10 MB/s internet connection, we are in fact paying for a 10 MB/s download speed and a 1 MB/s upload speed. This makes it hard to upload even the most basic things like large files or a few pictures. Uploading a photo gallery takes hours and cripples our connection. As a lifelong resident of Bloomington, I was hopeful that we would be looking to push for affordable fiber like other progressive cities including Chattanooga, TN. I was delighted to find that Bloomington had been working with a Canadian company to achieve this goal, even though the deal fell through. What really disappoints me, and what I think everyone should be upset about, is the fact that Bloomington appears to have stopped pushing. I can't find any new information about a push for fiber connectivity. It's like we have given up on trying to make this happen. We could be the first city in Indiana to pave the way in Fiber connectivity and reap the benefits such a system would provide. I know there great challenges in this, but it needs to be done. Fiber connectivity will be the future. Private companies will not provide this to EVERY Bloomington citizen at a reasonable price, but the City can.

The street light outside our home burnt out recently. It's one of the few on our street, which is now very dark. I was hoping it could be fixed or replaced or something.

Trash

2416 E Boston RD

Case Date:
4/24/2019

It looks like someone has been "living" along walkway between Winfield Road and Valley Forge road on the north side of Moores Pike (behind homes 2416 & 2420 E. Boston Rd, Blmgtn 47401). There are food items, phone charger, shirt, etc. by the wooden pedestrian bridge behind the homes in Revere's Run tract of homes. A lot of people use this walkway and the trash collecting along the walkway (and Moores Pike) is getting worse every week. Thanks!
