Property has weeds and foliage that have not been cut for over 3 months and are growing onto Mr. Shields' mailbox. He has reported this before and is concerned that nothing has been done, especially now that his mail carrier is complaining about the growth on the mailbox. Thanks for your help.
A bike is very much needed in front of or near The Book Corner. There’s nothing available on this end of the block forcing people to lock to streets signs.

This large-size gravel was placed by the city as a temporary solution to fill in a gaping crevice between our property and Acuff Road, so rain carried debris would not run along the road and cover our storm drain which is on the corner of Acuff Road and Kinser Pike. Resent rains have washed this gravel and now a considerable amount of it is in the road and poses a hazard for vehicles.
We purchased this property in 2007. In 2002 this property had been subdivided and there was a bond for required sidewalks on the property. On July 25, 2012, we turned over the funds from the bond to the City of Bloomington in the amount of $10,690. Since that time, there have been no sidewalks installed. IF sidewalks are REQUIRED when a property is subdivided, what is a REASONABLE amount of time to wait for installation? In the meantime the City just sits on that money? I would appreciate some answers and insight to these REQUIRED sidewalks. Thank you.
I just read a thing the Mayor Hamilton put out about sustainability and residents and low-income people. Bloomington has the highest rent in the state. I guess my question is, don't you see you and the city council are creating it. These new apartment buildings getting put up for the students is the problem. All of these high dollar apartments with the super high rent, hell it takes multiple people to live there so a 1,000 to $ 3,000 rent can be paid one person can't to it nobody has a incentive to do low-cost housing or not tear down low-cost housing, so high-rise expensive apartments can be put up. I just don't understand you guys are the problem you keep letting this happen year after year you look downtown all them high-end apartments that you already know a local can't pay for. It seems to me you guys just let him do it and then return you know bribery is alive and well they donate money to the city's funds so sustainability fund. Please please deny this Tell me that it's not happening that I read everyday or every other week on the newspaper
