Yard overgrown Parking in grass Over occupancy

Around 8:30pm on May 28, 2026, a group of 4 or 5 kids on electric motorcycles were riding recklessly through Switchyard Park and on the B-Line Trail. These are motorcycles, not bicycles. They are dangerous for everyone else in the park and on the trail. The electric motorcycles take off quickly and travel at high rates of speed. These kids have a complete disregard for the safety of others. Someone is going to get seriously hurt or killed in Bloomington soon as a result of these kids on electric motorcycles. They are cutting across the B-Line Trail and through park facilities, swerving at people on the trail, passing close without announcing themselves or slowing down. People moving at human speed are not expecting a motorcycle traveling at 25+ mph to appear out of nowhere, weaving and doing wheelies. The City needs to send the police to patrol the B-Line and park to make sure innocent people doing things the right way are not seriously injured or killed by these motorcycles being illegally ridden on the trails in town. It is only a matter of time before someone is harmed. The City needs to do more to make it safe.
This house had a serious fire two or three years ago. I heard last summer that they were starting renovation, but nothing much seems to have happened since then. I don’t believe anyone is living there; from how it looks from outside, I hope not The yard is seriously overgrown. I hope someone from the city can reach out to the owners and help them in so way either renovate the house or sell the house to someone who can. I understand a large family lived there and I wonder if they need some assistance. I live nearby but don’t know the owners to reach out to them. Thank you.
It is appreciated that you’re providing service to the south Rogers area during the construction, but it has not been handled well. If you are going to change the type of vehicle used to provide service then you need to tell passengers. You were running full-size buses yesterday how are we supposed to know that it’s a micro transit bus today? And if the tracking app does not work for that particular vehicle, then YOU NEED TO TELL PASSENGERS. They will not know this if you do not share the information on the app.
Why would the city block the entire northbound line of traffic with a giant construction sign on Rogers at the intersection of Rockport when that's the only way to get into the parking lot by the switch Yard pavilion where food truck Friday is going on? Does it make any sense to create such a significant road hazard by making everybody going in and out of the park from the south with the road closure to the north Have to cross into oncoming traffic and go head on with each other? Brilliant.
This is a blight issue. Property needs to be cleaned, maintained and secured to prevent vagrancy.
Overgrown weed on both sides of the street one looks like a construction staging and others just overgrown on the north
This house is abandoned. The lawn has not been mowed yet this season. This has been an ongoing problem for at least four years. Now there are rodents (rats, raccoons, groundhogs) living in the shed which is falling down and is a hazard, especially being so close to my property line. With the overgrown trees and bushes you can barely see the house or get to the front door.
