I boarded your bus #1372 at about 7:22 AM heading East on the #3 route this morning, February 16, 2024. I noticed the strong presence of diesel exhaust fumes on the bus & notified the driver. He informed me that that was just the way it is. I told him that I ood not think that we passengers are supposed to be breathing exhaust fumes. He said that it is a normal part of the regenerative process. I explained to him that we are not supposed to be breathing in exhaust fumes. I asked him if he should radio the issue in to dispatch. He explained that there was nothing that he could do about it, that it was a normal part of the regenerative process. When I arrived home & called dispatch, I was told the same thing. Tehn when I was still concerned that this was not supposed to be happening, she passed me onto her boss. I then was also connected to a man in dispatch. He too told me that it was a normal part of the regenerative process. I then asked him, so, you are supposed to be breathing in exhaust fumes while on the bus? Only then did he say that he would have maintenance take a look at it. However, I have heard this before & they have in the past disregarded this concern & let the bus run with exhaust fumes. I do not beleive that we tax-paying citizens should have to put up with busses gassing us like we are in a WWII Natzi Contentration camp getting gassed becouse our lives do not matter. There is never an excuse to expose a passengers to this and in fact, upon being notified by a passenger, the driver should have to pull the bus over, empty the bus of passengers to prevent carbon monoxide poisening & have us wait for a bus replacement or for the issue to get fixed, before reboarding a bus. I have sent a letter to the EPA about this going on for 20-years as I can recall & treating pasengers this way, as though we should not have an issue with disel-exhaust fumes being inhaled into out lungs while riding as a passenger.
See case #187164: Water is still flowing from house. The stream begins in the alley coming from the NE corner of the house, then moving south down the alley to Cottage Grove. The sewage water then travels east along the north edge of Cottage Grove to Lincoln. The sewage water then forms a pool on the NW corner of Lincoln/CG. The sewage water then crosses CG and travels south along the west edge of Lincoln until it meets 10th Street, where it crosses Lincoln to the NW corner of Lincoln and 10th, where is has formed a second pool. The property owner claims there is no water coming from their house. Please test the water for microorganisms and when the tests come back positive, inform the property owner of their obligations if they want to continue to rent out houses that used to be people's homes.
Correction to case #187344: Current destination pool of effluent is on the *NE* corner of Lincoln/10th, not NW.
Gravel placed on top of asphalt in alley making it very hazardous and slippery for pedestrians and the rocks are going into the storm drain.
Pretty confident there is a person living in an old van on the property in the driveway. Is that legal? People are coming and going all day long. Cars parked in the yard. Trash everywhere.
Trash continues to accumulate outside trash containers on the property and blow into street and neighborhood. Accumulation of trash bags and random debris is a violation of Bloomington Trash and Recycling ordinance: "Accumulated trash is unsanitary and attracts rats and other animals. Properties with accumulations of trash or scattered litter or debris may be issued a Notice of Violation with fines of up to $150."
