For many years we have been putting out yard waste bags for pickup on designated. Never was there a problem. That is, until about six weeks ago. The excuse given was that the materials were against the house. That was not true. This Wednesday, today, we put two yard waste bags put placing them in front of our recycling and trash bins. They are (present tense because the bags were not taken) clearly visible. In fact, the recycling personnel had to reach around the waste bags to retrieve the bin to empty. Why the awful service the past few weeks?? Our adjacent neighbor, who is caring for an ailing spouse, did not have hers picked up either. Granted hers is not totally visible. But it is in a spot where their bags usually have been placed. Please resume the fine service you offered until six weeks ago.
Fall leaves and the tree seed that falls with the leaves can be used to reforest idle land, no mow zones, and natural areas in Bloomington Parks, other city properties and private properties. This idea can help both the city and private home owners to make a positive use of Fall leaves to complete the urban forest canopy. Mixtures of tree seed and leaves spread in layers on land will produce dense stands of native trees. Please forward this idea to Joanna Sparks, Haskell Smith, Gillian Field, Beth Cote. I am willing to meet with them to discuss the details of how to use Fall leaves and tree seed to expand the urban forest in Bloomington. Thank you, Ray Major Forester Trees From Seed on Facebook
A resident has requested that leaves be collected on E Durham Dr. Mentioned that they have usually been picked up by this time of year and were surprised to see that they have not been done yet.
Hello - Park Ridge neighborhood. Please tell me the range of dates for the leaf pick up? I talked to the crew when they came through and they told me our trees were not dropped enough for the scheduled collection and they would return in the near future. I would like to inform my neighbors so they are prepared please. I will get the word out! - thanks again for your excellent work - Steve Akers Park Ridge Neighborhood Association
My apartment management just finally swept all of the leaves to the curb (in Deer Park/The Boulders apartments). There are a lot of leaves, and I noticed that our neighborhood is already marked as “completed” on the leaf collection map. Can the truck be sent back out to our neighborhood? This is relevant to S Weatherstone Ln and E Cobblefield Ct (off of Hillside Dr). Thanks!
When is the city going to pick up the leaves that have been piled in the gutters now for weeks? Already piles have been run over and if rain comes the sewers will be blocked (again) with the leaves.
Trees in Hoosier acres are only now shedding their leaves. we live at the corner of Brownridge and Fieldcrest. will there be another leaf collection ?.
There are piles of leaves on E . Brownridge Rd and Fieldcrest in Hoosier acres that need to be collected . The leaves block drainage.
I live in Claybridge Dr. IN 47401. I am really sorry and disappointed by your policy practice. You send a notice about 2 month ago and announced you would collect continuously. But you did just one time. Look around several places here. The street is dirty full of leaves. It is decaying. Please clean up as soon as possible. If you don't our villages will rise up!!!!!!!!!!
