St Charles church and school parking all over yard. Causing traffic hazards
Two very assertive/aggressive deer. One initially on the south side of 3rd, saw three humans and three dogs and trotted from 25-50 yards away, crossed the street, and then followed us on the campus side of the street until the 3rd person in our group deterred it with waving their hat, enough for the deer to run parallel with us again on the other side of the street. Second deer looked over rock ledge at the music school, spotted us, and then proceeded to walk towards us as if to meet up right at the 3rd/Eagleson bus stop. Two deer ended up interacting with one another after the first deer crossed back to our side. Humans and dogs entered Soma to plot remainder of walking route. This area is very busy with cars, buses, cyclists, and pedestrians, and the music school constantly has people in/out of it during the summer months. I’m concerned for all parties, but I would like to know what I can do to deter a deer that is actively pursuing me. I’ve now had deer chase me twice in the last two years. Last year near Bryan Park, and now on campus. Signs to avoid the area aren’t going to cut it if the deer will follow and pursue for blocks.
General connectivity east to west and vice versa in this town is atrocious. While folks recognize that pedestrians and bikes are vulnerable groups in forms of travel, vehicles in the Midwest for all commuters and visitors in this metro area cannot navigate well at all. It appears engineering will finally be working on a project to help timing across facilities and infrastructure in town, however PLEASE ensure coordination with the state happens because those areas are the most crucial east to west and are never prioritized or fixed. It should not take 20+ minutes to get from downtown to the west side. It is getting ridiculous. Citizens Hope this gets better especially as increased density seems to be the only desired path forward for the city. Fear it is only going to get more congested with increased travel times by vehicle.
High grass at the corner of 3rd/Walnut. It is a vacant lot (Royal Dog)
None of the soroities and fraternities have shoveled sidewalks on 3rd st. and everyone is walking in 3rd street. Very dangerous.
Lisa gave me this one. NW corner of 3rd and Rogers
Poison ivy
Where are the police in Bloomington in the early morning? Insecurity is increasing and police cars are not seen patrolling security on the street.
on Walnut Rd (between Peppergrass and the church) there are some MAJOR potholes on the road. The road is narrow and sometimes have no choice but to run over these holes... can we get these holes filled in please?
