When is the electronic billboard case going to move forward in court? This has been non compliant for so long, is an eye sore, and sets a precedent for more distracting and tacky signage to enter this county and city. Please provide the public an update so we know that the same issues are still being addressed in the new year

We live just a few blocks north of Bryan Park. At 4:09AM Saturday, Jan 15 my family was woken to what sounded like 8 gunshots, followed by two more a few minutes later. These noises sounded like they originated only a couple blocks south. Then there were 2 more shots (much fainter) at about 4:19AM. I never heard any sirens. Anyone have any insight into this occurrence? What is going to be done about the current state of affairs in regards to violence and drugs in the city of Bloomington? My wife and I have been increasingly concerned with the general state of "health" in Bloomington for the last few years. We have had random weapon-bearing tweekers and would-be thieves wander/stumble into our yards and onto our porches, we have had packages stolen from porches and mailboxes, we have had items stolen from our vehicles and property. My wife even witnessed a man masturbating in public! We now have cameras set up on our property to monitor 24/7 and I have a baseball bat next to my bed that I have already had to use once to run off a potential thief. We are two productive members of the community who pay our taxes and contribute to the local economy. But, we are considering moving due to the eroding quality of Bloomington. We know many others who feel the same way. In the last week alone we have heard of at least one stabbing death and one gunshot death. And upon a bit of reading of the Bloomingtonian it appears that Bloomington is doing rather poorly overall in this category. According to BPD Chief Mike Diekhoof, from a March 2023 article in the Bloomingtonian, in 2022 in Bloomington a gun crime occurred every 2.77 days. And someone shot at someone else every 5.2 days! And this is an upward moving trend. What the hell is going on here!? The previous mayor seemed to care little about this. Is the new mayor working with you to do something about all this? What do you plan to do about it? thanks. Ian Miller

Bus Services (Bloomington Transit)

Case Date:
1/25/2024

The busses on the #2 route need to be cleaned or swapped out for newer models. Many of the seats are stained and you can't tell if it is safe to sit down, not knowing if it is a "fresh" spill or an old stain. And would it be possible to use some different busses? We get the same old busses every day, while other routes get the newer, nicer, cleaner electric models.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

Case Date:
1/25/2024

A back tire on my car was completely blown out tonight driving down High Street between Maxwell & Covenanter. The pot holes along that stretch are REDICULOUS!!! They were all filled with water due to rain so I couldn't see them and I almost lost control of my vehicle when my tire went into a deep one. My car was forced onto the sidewalk. I could have hit someone walking there! SOMETHING MUST BE DONE TO REPAIR THAT STREET!! It will cost me over $800 to get my car towed and new tire + installation. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION!

I’m at Johnny Junction with a flat tire in the pouring rain from a pot at the intersection of walnut and Winslow. Are you going to pay for the tire?

Some calendar entries require logging into a Google account before info about the public meeting can be viewed. It would be helpful to not require logging into a Google account before display of public meeting information in order to ensure greatest levels of accessibility and participation. For example, on the page at https://bloomington.in.gov/boards clicking on the calendar links displayed on the right side of the page for the Feb 9 meeting of the Metropolitan Planning Organization Policy Committee or for the Feb 12 Board of Public Works Session displays a prompt to log into a Google account if the visitor is not already logged into a Google account. In contrast, clicking on the calendar entry for the Feb 7 Common Council Regular Session immediately displays the associated public meeting information, without first requiring a Google login.

See tix 187165. Local merchants don’t flood the community with criminals, mental health patients, and drug users that are responsible these carts being abandoned all over town…the city does!! Like all the other issues in this town, local government passes the blame on others (property owners)….hard working tax paying citizens and employers! Stop accepting state money for rehabilitation of all the states delinquents! I highly advocate for people to lawyer up take action against this city with answers like that!!!!
