Traffic Related Complaints

I just checked your response, someone comment on my garden, maybe this is not your area but related to legal parking on the public street. The neighbor parked at that special spot because whenever he spotted me work in my front yard, he will walk openly to his vehicle, sit on the driver’s sit to stare at me. Who will pay any attention to what his doing? It’s not a peeping Tom, but a legal Tom. if I don’t go home he will be there as long as I am in the front yard. If it’s you what can you do? Just let the garden go wild. The law is for regular people, an indecent person can take the law to satisfy his needs. I gave up, I can only be very careful and protect myself.

Fire Hazards

There has been a problem with people burning trash and yard waste in the near west side neighborhood nearly daily all summer and into this beginning of the fall season. The smoke often collects in some areas and lingers for hours causing a serious public health threat. Frequently the burning is conducted by a community of homeless people in the woods between W 8th and 9th Starts and the Monon trail just East of Adams Street, although therr may occasionally be other residents who are burning as well. Various neighbors have mad numerous calls to 911, but the problem persists. You may also reference the near west side neighhood association website to reference other complaints. While the fire department has come out to talk to the perpetrators numerous times, the City of Bloomington needs to find a permanent solution, since this is a serious public health problem that has been going on for a very long time, and sending the fire department does not resolve the problem.

Suggestion for BACC. The Bloomington Shelter has been adopting pets out to homeless individuals. In many occasions dogs have been found tied up outside stores while the owner is inside. Would like to suggest that the shelter provide these individuals wirh collars that have contact info embroidered and maybe something that says they will be right back. It’s very distressing to come across an animal tied up with no understanding of why. I think it would be worth the investment to help avoid unnecessary shelter inductions. Maybe a patch type collar is available with messages. If something was on the collar where one wouldn’t have to touch the dog to identify would be best gbut even a tag with info would help. Thanks for your consideration.
