The front porch rails are broken out, the rails appear to be unstable, sagging and possibly rotted. The porch sets up high above grade where the porch rails are out. There is a young child living in the house. This presents a danger. Jeff Jones/Pendragon owns this property. This has been the case for the past 2+ years. This family is a new renter and this was not repaired between renters.
In the westbound lane of traffic on Tapp Road, just west of the Kingdom Hall, there is a big pothole on the north side of the lane, getting bigger. This was reported weeks ago and never fixed. It needs repaired. Thanks.
There is a crack in the culvert under I-69. It was made by welding a coiled plate of steel into a pipe, but one of the welds is broken/missing. This is causing soil near the broken weld to wash into the pipe. if left unchecked, it could create a cavity around the pipe and sinkhole under I-69.

Near the intersectrion of northbound 45/46 and Discovery Parkway, there are three lanes. Right lane turns into the hospital, middle lane proceeds north as does the far left lane. In the middle lane, about four car lengths south of the intersection, there is a growing pothole that is likely only to get worse with the traffic it handles. This probably doesn't seem like much, but it is only a matter of time before it becomes serious.
Big rocks everywhere on the road at intersections of S Orchard Ln & S College Dr. Also, there's tons of sand all over road/clogging drains before this around 4225 S Orchard Ln per an mccsc bus driver. Thank you for your help!
There is a round hole in the pavement, next to the grass across from the church at 1701 E Second Street. I am sure this is NOT a utility construction project, but I do not know where else to report it. It is a hazard, though. I suspect a metal cover is missing.
I have had to run the stoplight the last two days because motorcycle will not set it off. If I get hit, I will be suing the city of Bloomington!!
I have reported this multiple times in the past few years and never heard back. Please contact me asap
#201966 has been closed: 'Parking Officer has spoken to the owner and has made sure the vehicles are moved.' This was 4/9/2025. The Red Ford Truck and white SUV, parked in front of 613 S Eastside Drive, have not been moved an inch since that date, nor had they weeks before the Parking Officer addressed the issue with the owner. The Code of Ordinances of the City of Bloomington, Title 15.04.020 (2) defines an Abandoned Vehicle as: A vehicle left on public property continuously without having moved for three days. So the Parking Officer needs to talk to the owner again. He is not moving his vehicles, as the Code of Ordinances requires him to do.
Japanese knotweed (prohibited plant) growing on north end of lot, close to and visible from the alley. Another opportunity for HAND to connect with residents and make more friends.
