Drainage or Runoff
1340 E Sheridan DR
- Case Date:
- 6/11/2021
The stormwater drainage ditch (also known as "Sheridan Creek") near the intersection of Sheridan and Karen continues to erode with chunks of asphalt going into stormwater drains. This was looked at a couple of years ago with a decision of "careful watching." It seems like it is now time to re-pave the culvert or put in a drainage pipe, consistent with what is at both ends of this ditch.
Excessive Growth

Lawn hasn't been mowed since sometime last year. In the back there's even a fallen tree that was never cleaned up. No leaf cleanup has been done for well over a year, so leaves blow onto other neighbors' lawns. A brush pile in the front by oak tree obstructs view from driveways. Poison ivy in multiple spots, which now appears in neighbors' yards. Also, have seen snakes and they also appear in neighbors' yards. Additionally, more ticks seem to be around than in years past. Many of us in the neighborhood have children and grandchildren, so this is disturbing, as well as being an eyesore and potentially negatively impacting home sale prices. Thank you.

The brick work here is very uneven and overgrown, with some bricks being broken, leaving jagged edges that are dangerous. I was jogging and tripped and fell, causing this huge gash on my leg and requiring me to go to the ER. Please get it fixed for the safety of the community and the children that walk there everyday to go to school.

Bus parks next to outside eating area and is left running. Would like yo see them park farther back by hobby lobby or further forward, but right next to the outside eating area is ridiculous. I don't enjoy having my lunch and having to yell just to talk to someone next to me.
Potholes, Other Street Repair

- Case Date:

The gravel alley just south of hunter between Highland and Ballentine has had its gravel washed away. There are big potholes and cars bottom out. This is the only way we can get into our driveway. Can the city either grade it level or put a top layer of gravel.
In the winter it becomes impassible for some vehicles

City Construction Projects

Someone needs to check on the construction crew working Rogers Street in the Patterson area. They are blocking the sidewalk with their materials on the east side near the warehouse. One of the contractors unexpectedly pulled his truck out onto the street to block a vehicle and then pulled it out aggressively again almost causing an accident. When confronted about this being unsafe he said “I can do whatever I want“.

Sidewalk Requests
1200-1398 E Elliston Dr, Bloomington, Indiana, 47401
- Case Date:
- 8/7/2019
I would like to request sidewalks/speed bumps on Elliston Dr. in Sherwood Oaks Neighborhood. Elliston is the main thourough fair to Sherwood Oaks Park, Jackson Creek Trail and Olcott Park, which also leads to Childs Elementary and Jackson Creek Middle School. There is significant foot traffic daily of adults, kids and pets being walked. Children go to school on this route and yet there is nothing provided to keep them safe. There are currently no sidewalks to keep foot traffic safe and no speed bumps to slow down traffic. People speed through this area whether local traffic or visitors to the park and what the city has done to date is not enough. Someone is going to get hurt and it will be on the onus of those who have chose to do nothing to keep pedestrians safe. Please consider making a change and putting sidewalks/speed bumps in to allow for safe travels for all in this area.
Thank you
