There has been a gray Pontiac Vibe parked on the north side of Maxwell Lane for approximately 2 weeks. It’s located at 1521 E. Maxwell Lane. My neighbor, Raglind Binkley, lives at 1520 E. Maxwell Lane. (She asked me to submit this report due to personal matters). Her words via a text to me: “Depending on which direction I turn..yesterday I almost hit the door.” Raglind’s driveway is directly across the street from this parked car. I (Diane)did not notice any No Parking signs on this segment of Maxwell Lane, so it may be entirely legal for this car to be parked there (?), but continuously without it being moved is the concern. Thanks.

600 E. First St. has a parking area off Henderson St. that fits two cars without encroaching on sidewalk. Current tenants are parking three cars, which results in sidewalk obstruction because they don't angle in enough. See photo. Please work with landlord to prevent this busy commuter sidewalk right of way from pinching down to just two or three feet.

Hi I hope you are doing well! I commute home via scooter and I get home well after dusk. When there is no more natural light in Bloomington, this area gets pitch black. This is dangerous because even with a bike light, you are still riding into a yield sign and a dead end. Some unlucky person will miss it and hurt themselves.
Also, another reason for a street light is because it is the only section of 7th street that does not have one… or one that works. ESPECIALLY with the speed bumps and the curb coming out to meet the speed bump, it is impossible to see.
Thank you for your consideration and I hope we both can contribute to a safer Bloomington!

This address is the dead-end address of a very dark street that would benefit greatly from a city street light. I would submit a photo but it would be simply black dark.

Since these tenants moved in there has been an ever-growing pile of garbage and discarded furniture collecting in their driveway. The pile just keeps growing and no attempt has been made to remove anything.

?? Abandoned vehicle... this vehicle has not moved in months. Also seems too close to intersection, causes traffic flow issues.
