We continue to experience recurring flooding and standing water. There is a single small drain outlet on our side of the street. Rising water frequently threatens to enter our retail location, especially when cars pass and cause waves. More photos and video available upon request.
After heavy rains Sat. and Sun., 19th St. between Walnut and N. Washington looked ghetto with all the trash that washed down from Lincoln St. All the storm drains along 19th were and are packed with trash and debris. The storm water drainage in this area is under sized. This has been a problem for years.
The city council phone number listed on bloomington.in.gov (812-349-3409) is completely unreachable. Any time I call I get immediately disconnected, with a busy signal, and no option to leave a voicemail. I hope this is a simple oversight. The page for the common council literally says that the council is supposed to be a link between the citizens of Bloomington and their government. I have tried emailing my councilperson and not gotten a response there either. I was told by Mayor Thomson's husband when he came canvassing at my house before the election that she wanted to make it easier for residents to communicate with their government. This seems like an easy place to start.
Construction for hopewell neighborhood: driving west between rogers and walker. Today is the 3rd time there is a team working without a flagger directing traffic in the street. The work is being done with a bobcat of some kind blocking one lane immediately before a hill, where you cannot see oncoming traffic. I’ve called twice about this already. Thank you!
Unclear what "Signs removed again" means in the response to case #201508. The signs are still there - bright orange, "stop-sign"-shaped signs on wooden stakes. They are trashy. This has been going on for years. Property is managed by long-time Bloomington firm that rents apartments in tacky, motel-like apartment buildings, at one time referred to as "Plantations". https://www.crerentals.com/listings
17th cross walk in front of Alumni Hall west bound stop for people in cross walk sign is fade and can't be seen . East bound sign is gone. Can't take of what you got. So you want more?
Indiana Ave stop sign for both lanes 4th & Indiana. Same at Kirkwood. But only on right side at 7th. I was in right lane other night guy in left lane blew through at speed. Could have been bad. If you don't have stop sign who is wrong?
Driving North on Walnut Street from the 45/46 bypass to the I69 entrance ramp. There is a lot of trash and debris on both sides of the street. Especially bad between 45/46 bypass to the stop light at N Old IN 37. Also in the area are a lot of dead tree debris and brush. Can this area please get picked up? Thank you
