There is a small area on the side of the road that has crumbling asphalt, which contributes to the storm water drainage issues as rocks get dropped into the drain after significant rain. Crews have patched areas along the street over the years, might be worth a review.
Malcolm Abrams and I own the bungalow housing the Bloom Magazine office at 414 W 6th Street. The alley to our west (when facing the building) sees a surprising amount of traffic, both vehicular and pedestrian due in part to the location of the County probation department's testing office just north of us along the alley. The alley surface is in poor condition with ruts and uneven patches. The utilities department is in the process of repairing and resurfacing a portion of our lot and alley due to water line damage from AEG fiber installation. I've been told that the city will pave some well-used alleys when in disrepair. I'm wondering whether this alley would qualify particularly given that the paving equipment will be onsite already. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
The city of Bloomington utilities replace many water mains in April. Our asphalt has still not been repaired and replaced.

The blacktop around the storm water grate in front of my house has eroded.
Starting at the intersection of E Second street and Eastside Drive, there are several potholes and missing pieces of pavement, including next to the driveway at 704 and there are especially huge holes next to the driveway at 724 Eastside. During heavy rainfall, the problem gets worse because chunks of pavement next to the holes are getting carried away by the water.
I was driving south on S. Walnut Street wanting to take a left turn at the traffic light to get to Hillside Drive and ran into a large and deep pothole that was filled with water. It made a terrible sound of something breaking on the front right side. I was just driving to Royal on the eastside, 3rd Street, and was told that I need to get 3 new tires (one was replaced last year) because I was driving my Subaru Forester all wheel drive and if one tire is ruined, all the rest need to be replaced as well. (total cost $ 681.20) I am very angry at the Street Dept. for not taking care of our streets and filling all the potholes and there are many.
Please repair alley between BuffaLouie's and Starbuck. Standing water every time it rains creates a lake and makes it hard to get in building. Even dry the area is a hazard with uneven pavement and loose stones.
While this area is under construction, I wonder if you could fix the drainage on northwest corner of the intersection of 6th and Adams. The storm drain sits slightly above the pavement on one corner. The intersection itself may also be below grade. The intersection collects an inch or two of water when it rains.
Last week there was a water main issue on N Kinser Pike very close to the entrance of Upper Cascades Park. There is a deep cut made in the pavement as you are driving N that will make you get new tires and an alignment. The signage is good but that doesn't go far enough. THE HOLE NEEDS ABOUT 4 INCHES OF FILLER AND SMOOTHED. THANKS. I'd say we could bury some evidence in it..but I'm not sure that's a good idea. Because I live next to Cascades Golf Course and many, many people drive that portion of Kinser Pike please HURRY UP..
