Excessive Growth
3116 N Ramble Rd W
- Case Date:
- 10/7/2025
Vacant lot between 3124 and 3120 E Ramble Road. The shrubs and trees branches are encroaching on the public sidewalk. The owner needs to maintain their property so that the sidewalk is able to be traversed and not require pedestrians to walk in the street. Thank you.
Biking & Walking
Discovery Pkwy & 10th St
- Case Date:
- 10/8/2025
10th St. and Discovery Parkway is way overdue for safe pedestrian infrastructure. As you can see, it's close to a post office, several employers on Discovery Parkway, and several apartment buildings. It's also serviced by city transit. But it's entirely unsafe for pedestrian crossing and seems like it's not even set up for that. Please invest in making it more usable for people to be able to safely cross 10th from Discovery to get to Pete Ellis.
Traffic Suggestions

There is are several crosswalks on Allen St. that are very hard to see at night. The lines could use reflective coating or blinking lights to help them be visible by car headlights at night.
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
295P
- Case Date:
- 10/7/2025
The traffic light pole here takes up half the sidewalk, leaving very little room for pedestrians to get around. Probably impossible for someone with a mobility aid to pass (e.g. wheelchair, walker). Seems like a major ADA issue. Even as someone with fine mobility, I barely had room to get by while staying on the sidewalk.
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
401 W 17th ST
- Case Date:
- 10/9/2025
Turning right from 17th St onto Madison St is a nightmare. You're either going to hit the car that's in the lefthand turn lane on Madison St, or you're running over the decently large curb. The only cars that can safely navigate this are small cars. If you're a truck, SUV, or, God forbid, a city bus, you're in trouble. Cars don't turn at 90 degree angles. The radius of that curb is entirely too small.
Food Truck Issues

In late night hours confirmed on weekends we are seeing hot dog carts setting up in the middle of Kirkwood which is a violation of food truck and mobile vendor codes.

My bike was stolen from this rack behind Hopscotch Coffee, which it turns out is not secured to the ground. I asked a tenant and they said Brawley Properties manages this building. If it can’t be secured it should be removed!

Street & Traffic Signs
301 N College AVE
- Case Date:
- 10/9/2025
Good Morning,
There are two Downtown Bloomington signs located on the north and south end of the sidewalk between College Avenue and the Justice Building at 301 North College. Unfortunately, they have lost their luster, the anchoring points are looking suspect and they are impeding the maintenance teams ability to remove snow. I believe these signs are located in the COB right-of-way and assume that there is a formal process to request relocation elsewhere. Preferably down the street in either direction. Please let me know.
Thank you,
