I was an Uber driver sitting westbound on 10th Street waiting for a passenger to come out of the student housing building. I was there less than 7 minutes in my vehicle and I was issued and obstructing traffic citation. The appeal was denied. Moving forward, how does the city want to deal with working vehicles obstructing traffic? Specifically, when semis block an entire Lane on Dunn or Kirkwood to unload beverage and food supplies to the various bars and restaurants? What about FedEx or Amazon delivery trucks that upstruct Lanes as well? Plus countless other rideshare drivers. If this citation is to be upheld, please let me know how to report continuous road obstruction violations that I see numerous times a day as I drive around the city working.

This is a heads up that the parking app that the City Of Bloomington uses isn’t working, at least for me. I don’t know if other users are having this problem, but it won’t sign me in. I have an existing account, and it says it will send you an email, but it never does. I’ve checked my spam folder. I tried this Thursday, and today (Friday) and still no email from either time. I’m using quarters now but I think it’s worth harassing the company.

It would be great if parking enforcement could come around some on big weekends. Most weekends cars are parked to intrude slightly on my drive, clearly parked in the visible yellow paint. It's mostly only annoying but does reduce visibility and can make it tricky for me to back out. Thanks!

A concerned resident called 3400 to let us know that the release at Binford Elementary is not being enforced properly. There are many parents parking in the grass and in the ROW on the street to run in to get their children. This is causing congestion and potential hazards for the safety of the children.

I park on 6th street between Morton and College 5 days out of the week as I work on the square. About 60% of the time the meter will read my card as declined which causes me to move spots or try to find change to fill up the meter. I had to move 3 times on 12/2 because the first meter was blank, I was told to move and when I did that meter declined my card so I moved again and that one took my card. The same issue happened today but I didn’t have a space to move to so I put in what change I had, went into where I work and got 4 more quarters and put those in and then proceeded to do the pay by phone via a guest on the app to add the needed 6.5 hours. My confirmation email told me I had until 7:03pm but the amount paid total should have went until about 8:30pm. With no guarantee of not getting a ticket, my coworker went down and put enough in to go until 8:58pm just to be safe. So a total of almost $16 to park for 8.5 hours. The meters not working properly is a continued issue for me. I have lived in Bloomington my entire life and I’ve worked downtown for 4 years always using metered parking. It wouldn’t be a big deal to me if this didn’t happen to me multiple times a week. I call every so often to inform the city of Bloomington parking about the issues I have and I’m usually told there is no way to prevent getting a ticket even if the order is put in, I just have to contest the ticket with hopes it will be dismissed. It is just frustrating to me because I always pay and I’m more often than not completely inconvenienced or late to work trying to deal with the issues with the meter. It’s just disappointing as a life resident here that has to use that parking every day. I’m hoping this reaches someone that can try to address some of these issues.
