Heaps of leaves along the sidewalk in the street, causing parking problems. The owners must not have gotten the message that the city is not picking up leaves anymore.

I am the property manager for Pavilion Properties which manages 408 S Dunn. The neighbor's trash, approx. 10 bags or so of trash is sitting right in front of our property but this is not ours it is the neighbor's trash. We are trying to see how to get this cleaned up. Thank you, Amber Anderson
Last night I tried for an hour to upload the required documents for a residential parking permit for my son’s car. The system rejects both pdfs and jpegs repeatedly. Today, I came to city hall to get the permit in person, and I was redirected to parking services on south walnut. When I arrived — at 12:45p — only one person appeared to be in the office, and she was unable to process the request and give me a residential parking permit. She indicated that the “person who could handle it,” was at lunch and would return at 1:30p. Like many, I presume, I used my own lunch hour to make an in-person visit to obtain a required residential parking permit. Staffing choices and, essentially, an office closure during a Bloomington resident’s traditional lunch hour seems inefficient and ineffective. I am standing in the parking office awaiting the return of, seemingly, the one person who can process my permit request.

I was walking Bryan Park, along Woodlawn on Sunday 2/9/25 (pic is from 3:02PM) and the small security patrol vehicle was parked on the walking path across from Sheridan/Southdowns. It may have been watching the people on the tennis court. As I got closer, but still far away, it started up and drove up the walking path to the end by the tennis courts where it then moved to Woodlawn. I know this vehicle is not much more than a golf cart, however I questioned if it should be driving on the walking path. Sharing in case it is something Parks would like to know about. Thank you.

Many potholes at this particular interaction. One of them is extremely wide and deep. Any cyclist or motorcyclist who accidentally runs over it will definitely trip and fall. More generically, there are many potholes along Woodland. I think the city should consider repaving the whole street.
Should this be corrected to avoid falls or other problems?
