I regret having to reach out to you regarding this bus #1372.  I boarded this bus on the East route of Route 3 this morning at approximately 7:22 AM on February 19, 2024.  I was informed by Mike Clark of Bloomington Transportation who is the operating manager, that the heater was working on that previous checked bus. Yet the heater is either not on, broken or the driver does not knbow how or desire to turn on the heater for the passenger. Furhter more, she informed me that the door heater was on, but that they do not work on some of the buses, as was the case on this bus this morning. There is no need to make passengers suffer like this.  The bus was NOT cold because of opening & closing the doors as MIke Clark previously suggested when I wrote to him regarding this bus.  The heat was simply not coming out of the overhead vents, there was only cold at the vents & the poles for holding onto were cold as well, indicating it had not been on for some time.  The dispatch operator's boss informed me begrudgingly that the bus was in fact bus #1372.  Since the dispatch operator could not be bothered to assist the driver in operating the heater that was alleged to be operating properly according to Mike Clark, I am forced to issue this complaint to the you the City of Bloomington government for heat on the buses in the Winter to be turned on & operating properly for the buses that do not have a heating system functioning or for the bus drivers who feel that we do not need the heat in the Winter. Sincerely, Timothy MacKLenzie

Just to add to info you may already know from Elm Heights neighbors re solvent-type odors; they were in the air this weekend, around Fess and 1st. I'm not in a position to know the source. Thanks.

You’ve done nothing over past several years to address culvert issues at 2001 east hillside. You weakened soil by doing nothing and now there’s a very big tree about to fall across high st. Enjoy!

Carts are to be removed the same day as pickup. Why does this matter if they’re in the ROW if they’re left out in the street for days on end. It’s creating a driving hazard and taking up parking for residents and delivery. Cars fly up and down this stretch and need road space to avoid other vehicles and pedestrians. The trash is also blown from these carts and littering the street

Ar Winslow Park tennis courts people are not letting others play on courts, saying they have "reserved"a court. That is not the way public courts work. Can you consider posting a sign to the effect that these are public courts and are not reservable?
