The sidewalk northeast of Washington St and Smith Ave intersection hasn't been plowed. It's adjacent to Parks & Rec property, the Allison-Jukebox Community Center. They cleared by the playground but I think they forgot this is also Parks property. Thanks!
The walk around at the new convention center construction site (between College and Walnut just south of 3rd) is not being maintained. Please forward this to engineering, as they have a special responsibility towards construction detours. Thanks!
The entire north side of 3rd Street, from Washington to Lincoln is impassable. It appears that whoever cleared the FlexePark parking lot used the public sidewalk as a dumping ground for snow. The side walk is covered with at least 4 feet of snow. These people know what they're doing. The utter disregard for pedestrians is nauseating. Is the Bloomington City Code merely performative? Please give them no warning. FINE THEM.
Why does the city not enforce its rules on clearing snow from sidewalks, through fines? I understand that old people in residential areas can't always clear snow. But I'm talking about businesses. I tried to walk on the sidewalk up Walnut from Hillside to 2nd street today on the east side of the street (1/27), it was not possible. There are a ton of businesses here who do not follow the rules, and it's a huge hazard because now we have to walk on the street itself, which is crazy busy. I mean you, Elkins Properties, I mean you, auto dealership, I mean you, Btown Smoketime, and even the post office! Why are these people not fined? The are businesses, cleaning the sidewalk it a part of doing business, they should be held accountable. Thank you for your attention
The entire sidewalk in front of the "Cityside by Alexa" apartments is completely unshoveled, as of late this afternoon. That is the north side of 3rd Street and the west side of Washington Street.
Snow has not been cleared from the mixed-use path along South Rogers. Thank you for all you do.
Sidewalk on the south side of 3rd street between College Ave and the B-line is still covered in snow. It's adjacent to the convention center, 302 S College Ave. The photo shows where pedestrians have already been walking in the deep snow. The landowner needs to be fined for chronic non-compliance. In past years, the only way this sidewalk has been cleared is when City Council members brought it up in public, but ensuring compliance is actually the job of staff, not electeds. Chronic non-compliance requires dogged enforcement!! Thanks!
The owner of the property that faces onto the west side of Madison St just north of the train bridge (property address 400 W 13th St) has not cleared their sidewalks. In fact, they've never cleared their sidewalks in years and years. The property owner is the city. This property and the bridge are the two standouts that prevent a contiguous sidewalk from 17th to 11th along the Madison-Rogers corridor. Please fine the landowner for this chronic non-compliance, and also get a work crew out there pronto. Thanks!
Snow mounded on top of sidewalk on the bridge over the train tracks at about 800 N Rogers. It's where Rogers St becomes Madison St. Our bridges are a key part of our transportation network and need to be maintained even though there is no adjacent property owner!!! The sidewalk is blocked on both sides of the bridge.
