Black GMC Envoy Indiana license plate OZAN parked in yellow zone on West 7th at corner of Maple. Blocking sight line for cars pulling into intersection from southbound Maple Street. Has been parked in yellow zone for at least ten hours. Hard to tell from photo but vehicle is completely in the yellow no parking zone. Plus you can see "no parking sign" in front of vehicle.

I am writing to express my opposition to the proposed changes to the traffic flow on Walnut, College, Atwater and Third Street for the following reasons:
Traffic congestion on third street due the numerous busses that stop at each bus stop would make travel east on third street trecherous for drivers and pedestrians.
Changing Walnut and College would require changing parking configurations and meters, a cost that is not small. There are many other more pressing needs in Bloomington for individuals with limited incomes, like housing. Also, if in fact there are facts to back the statement about cars going 40 Mph, why is there not a way to change the lights to prevent a person from reaching that speed. If in fact, that has found to be a problem by local law enforcement.
Delivery trucks often block one lane of both College and Walnut and with two way traffic there will be traffic interuptions and the possibility for drivers taking dangerous risks to be able to get by the parked trucks.
I have not seen evidence that crossing s street with two way traffic is less dangerous than crossing a street with one way traffic. We live in an age where instant gratification is rampid so people will take risks crossing the street, as I have seen.
I saw a comment from one business in town, Gratzis, that wants the change. I have not seen that a survey of the other businesses has found. However, I question whether this is a business recommendation based onother cities or what.
I can only hope that the outside company that is making these proposals has experience in working with communities with Bloomington’s unique town and gown population.

Hello,
My name is Lauren Fox. I am the Facilities Manager at Middle Way House.
Every morning there is an increasing amount of scooters on our side walk and outside of our buildings. I have attached two pictures of where I have been finding them. I would prefer not to have any of them on our private property. I wanted to share these images to ensure that the spaces being used are in deed public space therefore we must permit them to be there.
Thank you for your time and I look forward to your response,
Lauren Fox
ps- I have sent these twice- each one with a different picture

Greetings- Please direct this to Angie Grubb-Flick's attention.
On Indiana Ave just north of Kirkwood in the east side lane there appear to be two missing water valve lids. We are having a road foot race (city permit obtained) on Saturday morning Oct 27, 2018 and need these lids replaced or filled for safety.
