Property not being kept up. Weeds at knee-high. No activity in or around building. Looks like an abandoned warehouse. Junky cars being stored in the back, or maybe that is the neighbors. Really unsightly area because of these two properties.
Can't hardly see the house, it is so covered in weeds and growth. Appears abandoned.
The city lawn is overgrown next to the old bender lumber building 611 W 11th Street. Our staff almost stepped on used needles in this overgrown area. When the grass was kept short we did not have a problem with used needles in this yard.
Over the weekend, twice when I was driving on Walnut Street I had the light for traffic on Walnut Street at the intersection with South Drive turn red for no reason. There were no cars on South Drive and no pedestrians to trigger it. Both times it takes about 35-40 seconds before the light is green again for Walnut traffic. On one occasion, I counted at least 20 cars sitting on Walnut waiting for a ghost to cross the street or drive through. Can the city fix this light so it does not randomly go to red on its own and disrupt traffic significantly on Walnut? -- I have reported this before, a few weeks ago, and it is clearly not fixed.
owner states tree out by road close to sidewalk and his driveway has a lot of dead limbs. Can you take a look and see what it needs.
Numerous "Big Sale" signs placed within ROW.

Near the middle of May, Bloomington experienced several days of heavy rain. I understand that there were many problems around town. One of many near my house involved the flooding of Kinser Pike due to intense sheet runoff from the under-construction development, Kinser Ridge. Kinser Ridge had a silt fence up, but the runoff breached it. The muddy water flowed downslope through my neighbor's garage, yard shed, and driveway, and through the farm field to the north. This amounted to so much water that the culvert under Kinser Pike could not hold it, and the silty water flowed over Kinser Pike. The water pooled in the road for several hours. This was a problem worthy of a uReport. However, my actual gripe today is that the developer has not attempted to repair the damage or reinstall the silt fence. Now, when it rains again, the silty water will flow again with no impediment because the soil is now at the top of the broken-down silk fence. Behind my property line is disturbed bare soil that eroded into my yard last time, and because no effort has been made to fix it, the mud from the soil erosion will again bury my grass and trench out my garden. The bottom line is that I would like the developer to remediate the erosion problems in the northeast corner of the development before it rains again. P.S. They have had acres of bare soil uncovered for about a month. Isn't that prohibited?
House not maintained from top to bottom. It is falling apart and extremely junked. Strange activity at all hours… it’s a shame cob ignores anything on west side. It’s disgusting how trashy the city is.
