Bloomington Municipal Code - related to easements. "(d)Maintenance.(1)For features required to be in an easement, maintenance shall generally be the responsibility of the lot owner, except as expressly provided otherwise in this UDO or in the development approval." This is largely ignored and has led to groves of invasive plants, weeds the size of trees, and overgrowth which hinders access in violation of the city code.
There is a bench next to the basketball court that is surrounded by beaten down dirt and tree roots. I would be more attractive if the ground around it was covered by wood chips.
Park Ridge Park needs wood chips around the bench to the east of the basketball court. The ground is packed dirt and tree roots.
About ticket #192627. You closed it with the comment that the contractor has filled the hole. The contractor has half-filled it with gravel that is quickly being scattered as folks park with a wheel in the hole. The hole is growing, and is a hazard. It hasn't been filled. Thank you,
Traffic is restricted to one lane on 19th St. from Washington St. up to Lincoln St. There should be NO PARKING on South side of street along 19th St. in the section. It is dangerous and inconvenient.
Please replace Park Ridge massive bumps with something reasonable but effective like in Park Ridge East.
Can you contact Tri North with concerns that they have cars line up for student pickup that block the entirety of the main accessible spaces by the office. I don't know an easy solution but there should be at least one available accessible space for those who need it.

On Wednesday, August 21st, I was at Ferguson dog park. A dog brushed against me and I reached to pet the dog and it bit me on my RT hand. The gentlemen the dog belonged to said nothing and did nothing and promptly left. I did not get any information from him. I was seen at the Bton ER where I got 8 stiches for 2 different bites, rabies prevention (due to not knowing the dog's vaccine status), Dtap and oral antibiotic. None of the other dog owners that were there helped to get this gentlemen's into. I want people to be aware. FYI, he was an elderly man, I would guess 70s and walked with a cane. His dog was medium built, mutt and medium size and black. Someone at the park told me, after the gentleman had left, that he had said, "I try to warn people," and mentioned that they had seen him there before. If anyone has any info please let me know.

We were walking down the B-line trail north of Hopscotch and south of Kroger when we saw one of the security patrol mini trucks swerve at a high speed around two women who were walking south towards us. He seemed to be going way too fast for B-line traffic. I think the license plate number was MT415A. He swerved around us and sped south.
