Smoke detector has been beeping from condo for low battery for weeks. There are 4 condos per building, the windows in unit 708 have been open all summer, and the beep echos in the woods behind. If there is a fire it's feared maybe not all occupants will be notified potentially causing loss of life. The unit seems to be owned and occupied currently, but unsure whether occupant is aware of smoke detectors importance.

Four hours of smoke now from someone who seems to burn leaves in Stiers Park (sort of a tiny gated community). The location is right near High Street and Viva. And has to be awful for people just east of the burn. Two houses to the north, we get a lot of smoke in our windows. Everything withing a quarter mile has a smoke smell. It may have been the same household last weekend. And in previous years. My understanding is that burning is not permitted in Bloomington (and most municipalities), except for pit fires. I wasn't sure whether to report it to the Fire Dept. or Police. It is a health hazard. It is also a nuisance. And though it seems to be tended, it's not the safest thing in the world.

3 fire hydrants in Hearthstone Village covered when City snow plows pushed snow off streets. 3 hydrants in the end of each court, between 1204-1209 and 1312-1310 (Hearthstone) and at the corner of the access road and Bridgestone. The one at 1204-1209 is especially problematic. --see attached pic --there is a hydrant somewhere under that pile of snow!

I am filing this report to provide supplemental, formal documentation of ongoing health and safety hazards coming from the unit at 918 N Lindbergh Dr. I want to state that the Bloomington Housing Authority (BHA) usually does a good job, and I appreciate their efforts. I have already spoken with them and they are investigating. However, I understand the process can take time. Since these problems have been ongoing for approximately one month, I am formally documenting these issues to ensure the City has a record of the situation while it is being addressed. 1. Violation of No-Smoking Policy and Fire/Explosion Risk: As this is a government-regulated building, the lease strictly prohibits smoking inside. Per policy, any smoking must occur at least 25 feet away from the building/doors. For about a month, there has been a persistent cycle of smoking tobacco and other combustible materials occurring within downstairs units, primarily originating from Unit 918 and potentially other units downstairs. This occurs in a unit where medical oxygen tanks are present, representing a significant fire and explosion risk to all residents. 2. Severe Health Impact & Insomnia: Heavy tobacco and non-tobacco odors originate from the downstairs area and float up into the upstairs apartments, causing chronic insomnia and physical distress, including dry mouth, dry throat, coughing, and dry heaving at night. This environment is impacting the health of neighboring residents including those with established medical accommodations who are experiencing nausea and a loss of appetite. I am providing this record specifically to protect myself and my neighbors from being unfairly held liable for property odors, fines for cigarette butts, or damage originating from the downstairs units. 3. Property Maintenance and Sanitation: Despite my efforts to regularly clean up cigarette ashes and butts to maintain the area, they reappear daily and are now becoming soggy in the ground. When I politely asked the residents to stop leaving cigarette butts and ashes on my doormat, they claimed they "could do nothing about the wind," showing a total disregard for the property's cleanliness and my personal entryway. 4. Safety, Harassment, and Guest Conduct: I have attempted to resolve this in a neighborly way. When I asked the individuals to please move outside and then to please move away from my door, they immediately began shouting and using extreme verbal hostility and gendered slurs. During this confrontation, I was told that I "had no rights," that the area was "public property where people could do whatever they wanted," and was told to "call the cops then" as they stood less than 5 ft from my door on the patio. The resident of Unit 918 was present and stated he had no control over his guests' behavior while they were shouting at me. Because the resident refuses to take responsibility for the conduct of his visitors and the environment has become verbally abusive, I no longer feel safe having any direct contact with that unit. Purpose of Report: This statement is for formal record-keeping. I want to ensure the City has a documented history of these environmental, safety, and harassment concerns to protect the health and lease standing of all neighboring residents. I appreciate the BHA’s ongoing work and submit this to support a safe, compliant living environment.
