The owner of this car has a private parking space on the 500 block of West Smith Avenue. (Not sure of the house number. Sorry.) As you can see, he is not within the lines. Smith Ave. is a narrow street and said 'outside the lines' parking makes it difficult for UPS/USPS, emergency, and construction vehicles to pass through easily. I've spoken to him "in-person" to politely remind him to not park in the middle of the street. Would a ticket with a fine attached get his attention? I hope so. He doesn't seem to be moved to change his parking behavior by kind yet direct words from a concerned neighbor.

This is a Parks issue but potentially a City-wide one. Does the City not have an advertising vetting policy in place? If so, can it please be reviewed? I was very disappointed to see a Lighthouse Christian Academy sign in the City's Twin Lakes facility earlier this month. This institution discriminates not only against LGBTQIA2 students (banning them) but goes even one step further and bans students with LGBTQIA2 parents. The Farmers Market situation is clearly a mess but the City's position has been not to eliminate the white supremacist booth due to it not practicing discrimination in the business sense with customers and the public. This is legally in the right. Lighthouse can pose no such defense. It outright discriminates and the City can and should have a policy that does not allow advertising from entities that discriminate against protected local classes. This is content neutral. Sexual orientation and gender identity for local Code are rightly on an equal plane with race, disability, and other categories. There is little doubt that the City would not be putting up large billboards from a local school that banned students of color for instance or white children with parents of color. This is not a contest but an illustration. A vetting policy needs developed and enforced that exemplifies the very basic values of no active local discrimination of advertisers. The people of Bloomington deserve better than being faced with such billboards in public arenas. Surely a city government is not forced to accept funding from hate groups. P.S. Please undergo a more comprehensive review City-wide of items as they pertain to sexual orientation and gender identity. I'm sure other groups could also benefit from a review (such as people of Asian origin) but sexual orientation and gender identity is one definite one. An HRC report card is a bragging point but does not seem to be seriously used as a tool for improvement. For instance, City Hall has no public gender neutral bathroom for those who may feel uncomfortable using the facilities available. Thanks for your good work, but let's do even better.

Disappointed in this city for keeping Anthony's Pets open. This city and the people that occupy it are more progressive than this. Do better.

animals not treated right

The pets at the bloomington mall is not okay. The fact that they give this animals steroids to “appear happier” should be illegal. These dogs will experience abuse and neglect if we allow this to continue. This should be shut down along with all the other puppy mills who neglect these animals just for profit.

Anthony’s pets at college mall is a disgrace and abusive towards animals. It should be shut down immediately. It is concerning how long this has been going on without someone truly doing something about it.
