The sidewalks adjacent to Btown Smoke Time were never cleared. This is utterly shameful, especially in the heart of downtown – an area of high pedestrian traffic. The photo was taken on January 29, 2026 at 1:15 PM – four days after the end of the snowstorm.
Sidewalk in front of post office has not been touched. Covered in snow and challenging to navigate.
Sidewalks are covered in snow. Impossible to traverse.
The public sidewalks in front of Lovers Playground are completely impassible, and pedestrians are forced to walk in the busy street. It appears that the owners even used the sidewalks to dump snow that was cleared from their parking lot. Photos taken 2026 Jan 29 – 2:25 PM
Here is the IU Center on Representative Government – where the steps to the building are completely cleared and salted, but the sidewalk for the lowly pedestrians is covered with a few inches of uneven packed snow and ice. Who is being represented? Photo taken 2026 Jan 29 – 1:03 PM
Car parked on alley. Not really blocking it, since the alley is currently impassible due to snow mass just south of Cottage Grove, but the car should not be parked there if emergency vehicles need to get by. Car is parked on N/S alley that is adjacent to eastern-most edge of parking lot in back of house. Car is dark-colored VW Jetta, NJ license plate C31-NHT.
The sidewalk on the south side of 6th Street, from Dunn to Indiana, is badly unshoveled. It is quite revealing that large parking lots for CARS are completely cleared long before the pedestrian sidewalks RIGHT NEXT TO THEM remain neglected. Photo taken 2026 Jan 29 – 1:00 PM
Snow completely blocking sidewalks. Same culprits every year: N. Washington: 800, 805, 811, 812, 820 N. Lincoln: 800, 803 E. Cottage Grove: 301
