Other: Urgent Safety Concern – Motorized Bikes Speeding and Racing in The Stands/Jackson Creek Area I am writing to report an ongoing and increasingly serious safety concern in The Stands neighborhood and the surrounding areas, including near Jackson Creek Middle School, Jackson Creek Trail, and Rogers Family Park. For several months, three young people riding motorized bikes/mopeds have been repeatedly speeding and racing together throughout the neighborhood. They sometimes ride on the roadway and sometimes on sidewalks and pedestrian paths. They appear to be traveling at extremely high speeds and do not slow down or give adequate space to pedestrians, people walking dogs, or other residents using the paths. The bikes/mopeds are also extremely loud. This has become particularly distressing for our dog, who is frightened by the sudden noise and speed of the bikes. More importantly, I am very concerned that someone—especially a child, pedestrian, cyclist, or someone walking a dog—could be seriously injured. The riders are racing close to pedestrians and moving at speeds that make it difficult for people to react or get out of the way. This is not an isolated incident. It has been happening repeatedly for months, and residents are becoming increasingly concerned about someone's safety. I am asking the Bloomington Police Department to please take this complaint seriously and increase patrols/enforcement in The Stands and the surrounding Jackson Creek Middle School/Rogers Family Park area, particularly during the times when these riders are typically present. If possible, I would also appreciate having an officer observe the area and address the situation before someone is injured. Please take action on this issue before there is a serious accident or injury. Thank you for your attention to this important neighborhood safety concern.

I live in Prospect Hill in a historic home on South Fairview Street. My retaining wall was tagged with what looks like paint or nail polish (see image). I will reach out to the neighborhood for suggestions on how to safely remove the tag but it was also recommended I file a uReport in case assistance or recommendations are available through the City or other source. I have filed a police report.

On College Mall Road near the bus stop in front of Old National Bank (near the intersection of S Buick Cadillac Blvd): a deserted Envirosac. It seems to me that the crew that recently worked on the sidewalk near the bus stop left this bag behind.

Last January, a car hit the sign that marks where Matlock Rd meets Headley Rd and knocked it down. The sign was never replaced. The post for the sign is still lying at the edge of the road at that intersection. Hoping this can be replaced so that my guests know when they are turning onto Headley Rd from Matlock. Thank you!

I truly can't understand why the city keeps putting in speed bumps with no signage and no indication that they are there. I drove down Washington St for the first time in a long time...the speed bumps caught me and my car off guard. I really feel like they should have yellow paint and/or a sign. The white arrows don't stand up enough and especially on the sections of the road that are in shade...it was impossible for me to tell if there was a speed bump or not. I understand the need for speed bumps, I would just like them to be appropriately marked.
