348 S Morton ST

City of Bloomington (Historic Preservation Commission?) My wife and I recently purchased and moved in to 348 S Morton St, which is on the Indiana Historical Registry. Earlier this month, using uReport Case 181400, we requested Parks & Rec to help with some heavy brush between S Morton St and the B-Line (they were very responsive -- nice job Paula and Team! :-)). Reviewing the work after clearing was done, walking along the B-Line trail, just below 348 S Morton St, I noticed some block/stone work that might be quite old (pic attached). It appears the block/stone work is there to shore up the embankment for a considerable stretch of S. Morton St. Now that it's visible, it appears that this block/stone work is in a state of disrepair :-( A couple of thoughts: • Is it possible this could be looked at to see if this block/stone work has any historical significance • There could be some concern that this block/stone work may not have the original integrity it was intended to have regarding shoring up the embankment along a stretch of 348 S. Morton St.

Excessive Growth

348 S Morton ST

Case Date:
9/7/2022

To the City of Bloomington, There is a ~500 foot stretch of unmaintained city property, along the north side of the 300 thru 400 block of S. Morton St and boundary of the B-Line trail. This area has heavy overgrowth, attracting trash and debris and becoming a dumping location. A recent dumping of two discarded bicycle frames has prompted calls to police for possible theft related activity. The overgrowth is obscuring street signage, that could be a security hazard to drivers thinking that northbound from Smith on to Morton is unrestricted - which it is not. This area of overgrowth is encroaching on both S. Morton St, and the B-Line trail, and recently we've observed numerous late night gatherings of homeless/vagrants (on the B-Line) because it appears that this overgrowth provides visual shelter and seclusion from being observed along the B-Line from S. Morton St. If it hasn't already been used in this way, this area is prime for unsanitary use for urination or defecation in this stretch between S. Morton St and the B-Line trail due to the seclusion this overgrowth provides. To the north and south of this heavy overgrowth, the similar stretch of B-Line boundary is well-groomed, and offers the public the desired visual beauty of the trail, yet this ~500 foot section provides exactly the opposite as described in this cleanup request. We are asking that the City of Bloomington put this stretch of unmaintained city property between the 300 thru 400 foot blocks of S. Morton and the B-Line Trail, on a regular, ongoing, and permanent maintenance plan. Owners/Residents of 348 S. Morton St.

Street Trees

820 1/2 W 2nd ST

Case Date:

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.

Debris Removal

522 W 4th ST

Case Date:
8/23/2022

A gust of wind ripped away a tree limb on the red maple in front of my house and was blocking the sidewalk. I contacted the urban forester and left a message describing this situation, but didn't get a response. Eventually my housemates and I brought the limb down ourselves, but it still needs to be removed from the side of the road. Most of the debris has already been cleared except for the limb. We have enough firewood. Please remove the limb from the side of the road, thanks.
