This is a thank you to the Streets mowing crew. (I listed "debris removal" as the issue because I think that is likely to get to the right people.) This morning while walking my children to the first day of school, I saw City of Bloomington Streets mower machines taking out all the overgrowth at the railroad property on either side of the Fairview/11th Street underpass under the railroad. Thank you! The sidewalk is so much clearer!

crows had attacked the back parking lot early Dec 17th. My wife and I cleaned up the back parking lot Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. On Tuesday afternoon I went to Lowes and bought two fake Horned Owls and placed them on my air conditioner units. The next day Dec 20th there were no signs of crow activity from the night before.
On Sunday a man was spreading weed killer on the lawn at City Hall. There were people with kids and dogs in the area that had no idea there was poison in the grass. Why was this allowed? Isn't the City supposed to put up signs if it uses chemicals on the grass? Why are they even using chemicals? This issue needs to be reviewed, if only for public safety.
Thank you for the awesome community fireworks display downtown! It brought neighbors out onto our porches and sidewalks to witness the display over our Near Westside neighborhood. I love the idea of continuing the fireworks display downtown in future years. It makes it so much more of a community event instead of something that happens on the outskirts of town. Chapeau to those who came up with the idea.
Re: Case #165561 Some debris from the accident remains near the RR underpass. Trash and weeds are still on Adams, and on Fountain, and on 8th Streets. Streets near the university at least get swept. Can the City seal the streets, so the weeds won't grow?
Flow at 10th across campus needs improved. Slow speed is fine but not clogs. Particularly Spea/Wells walk and then left at Union.
Slow but flowing traffic is safer and more pleasant for everyone compared to stop and sprint jams on 10th. Put a signal or over or underpass at SPEA/Wells crosswalk and a left turn signal at Union and 10th on 10th Street. Thank you.
Apartment Complexes in the area? Why is it that the apartments have the sidewalk on the outside of the building cleaned but the inside court yards NOTHING is cleaned? I have seen several of the lower class apartment complexes people must pay rent on time yet when we have bad weather we still get no credit for being people living in the buildings? We are not appreciated cause we are LOWER CLASS? discrimination to me. Where is the R E S P E C T FOR US!!!!
