Corrections to case#193765 (due to auto-correct): overgrown invasives are on the *west* side of Dunn (not east), and the plants we would like preserved are *cypresses* (thuja/arborvitae, Cupressaceae), not "depressed".
Tree/bush is blocking the sidewalk, have to duck or walk off sidewalk. Needs trimmed
Cases #193296 (6 September) and #193766 (11 October) pertain to the same property/issus. Both are closed and marked "resolved", though issue remains. Invasives have grown over the retaining wall and are blocking the sidewalk. The steps lead to what appears to be a vacant lot, though there is a building at the far north end of this property. As per Elevate, owner is: The Teague Trust 2106 Casa Mia Dr San Jose, Ca 95124 If Bloomington would pass an ordinance restricting property ownership to local residents, and even better to require that property owners actually live in the buildings they own, most of the problems like this would go away.
The issue associated with Case #193767 has not been corrected. Large, smelly dumpster on the east side of Lincoln between 14th and 15th Streets remains on the sidewalk and almost into the street. This really is not completely the fault of the property owner. Can Rumpke be fined for placing it in a public thoroughfare?
Sidewalks along S Westplex Ave in front of the Wheeler Mission are continuously occupied by, on average, 10 to 20 unhoused people living in their parked cars and sleeping on the sidewalk, causing obstructions to the road and sidewalk for residents of the Westplex apartment complex and retirement community.
