Thank you for continuing to investigate this and for forwarding the truck traffic question to Engineering. I wanted to provide some additional information and also clarify a few questions. First, I am not entirely clear on how 2615 S. Kendall Drive relates to the FBM operation or to the semi-truck traffic I originally reported. Could Planning clarify what commercial use was found to be occurring on that residentially zoned parcel? Is that property being used by FBM for access, truck circulation, storage, staging, parking, or some other part of its operations? My concern about truck traffic is also not limited to S. Kendall Drive. Semi-trucks serving FBM continue to travel through the residential neighborhood, including Watson Street and Bryan Street. My broader concern is why semi-trucks serving this commercial facility are routinely entering and traveling through the residential neighborhood at all, rather than accessing the commercial property from Country Club Drive. For Engineering, I would appreciate clarification about whether semi-trucks serving this facility are permitted to routinely use Watson Street, Bryan Street, S. Kendall Drive, and other residential neighborhood streets as access routes. If there are currently no restrictions, does the City have the ability to establish an appropriate truck route or otherwise restrict commercial truck traffic through these residential streets? I also wanted to make Planning and Engineering aware of a significant change in ownership since the property's historic use was established. Lowe's Companies completed its $8.8 billion acquisition of Foundation Building Materials in October 2025. In announcing the acquisition, Lowe's specifically described plans to enhance its Pro business through expanded capabilities, faster fulfillment, improved digital tools, and cross-selling opportunities. I understand that a corporate acquisition alone may not necessarily require new local approvals. However, given the recent change in ownership, Lowe's stated goals for FBM, and Planning's discovery that part of the current operation has expanded onto a residentially zoned parcel, I think it is important to ask whether the nature or intensity of this location's operations has changed or may change enough to require additional City review. I am also unclear how substantially increased fulfillment, truck traffic, or other commercial activity could be accommodated at this particular location without further affecting the surrounding residential neighborhood. If operations at this facility increase, what zoning, site-plan, traffic, access, or development review would be required to determine whether this location and its existing access points can accommodate that activity? Here is Lowe's announcement regarding its acquisition of FBM: https://corporate.lowes.com/newsroom/press-releases/lowes-completes-acquisition-foundation-building-materials-10-09-25 Thank you again for looking into this. I appreciate Planning pursuing the Title 20 issue and Engineering investigating the truck traffic. I would especially appreciate clarification about how the Kendall property fits into FBM's operation and whether commercial semi-truck traffic through Watson, Bryan, Kendall, and the surrounding residential neighborhood is permitted.

Each time it rains, this low spot under the bridge fills with water making it difficult for cars to pass. Is there something that can be done to improve the drainage here?

Blocked Sidewalk

302 S Walnut ST

Case Date:
8/22/2026

Transit benches and seating during off peak hours of operation when the building is closed and no staff or security is in sight in between bus arrivals and departures has led to blocked access to sidewalks and benches that correspond with the proper transfer to the city's hospitality and retail districts, but when contacting Transit, the lines were either closed or I was told to just contact 911. Contacting 911 when you're one of very few bus riders and most of the persons are invited to take up entire benches and sidewalks and alleys that are dark without any supervision or preventive action after previous reports and constant, daily calls from various individuals to emergency dispatch leaves me feeling that continuing to call 911 and sexual harassment being viewed as a civil matter is unsustainable for any one individual who's just trying to use the transit center for its intended purpose against multiple unknown daily rotating individuals and unknown issue to All City officials. My rational response is to report it as I fear that I will just keep being viewed as someone who is having a personal issue and reacting poorly to daily grooming and sexual harassment in what has become a legal grey area of daily surveillance of lone, predictable, public transit commuters, and especially women. Your hospitality staff is trained to be welcoming and not always reacts or response appropriately at 6:30 in the morning off the clock to unknown individuals in an unpredictable environment. This is a pressure cooker the city needs to pay close attention to instead of asking your Transit passengers who are dropping in numbers to act as individual issues between individuals. I don't want to have to go speak to a judge and take off work to use your sidewalks.

Inaccessible Parking

305 W 16th ST

Case Date:
9/22/2026

Subject: Request for Residential On-Street ADA Parking Spaces due to Student Housing Overcrowding I am a 9-year resident of Maple Heights neighborhood in Bloomington requesting the designation of on-street ADA accessible parking spaces directly adjacent to my home. My husband is disabled and myself have upcoming spine surgery and possesses a valid state-issued ADA placard.A recent multi-building student development directly across the street has overwhelmed our public street parking. The high volume of student vehicles completely fills the street, creating a severe barrier for my husband and myself, who cannot walk long distances. This has created a safety hazard, as we are trapped in our home and unable to leave for medical needs out of fear that accessible parking will be completely cut off by student overflow. Because we operate two essential vehicles—including one required for my husband's medical transit—we are formally requesting that the Traffic Commission evaluate our property for a designated ADA space allotment to restore safe, accessible entry to our home. Thank you for your urgent assistance with this safety matter.

Trails

308 W 6th ST

Case Date:

During farmers market weekends, the B Line trail often gets blocked by people forming a line across the trail (red line drawn on photo), instead of sticking along parallel to direction of travel on the trail to the side (pink line drawn on photo). I would like to ask if the city could work with Le Petit Cafe to create a barrier with signage, perhaps out of traffic cones (white dots drawn on photo), on the weekends in order to facilitate a line forming in a way that keeps the B Line trail accessible.

Need street-surface traffic direction arrows painted in the 2 lanes of S. Clarizz heading north. I have seen people make the right-hand lane into a left-hand turn onto East 3rd St. Please see pic of suggested arrows. The yellow marks are the direction available besides a right turn. Tx!
