We would like to request a welfare check for a dog that has been barking incessantly and disturbing the peace of at least ten homes in the neighborhood for years, with the problem getting worse in recent weeks. Some occupants have lately vacated the property, and the dog seems to be increasingly neglected. At least two dogs have been observed on the property, with one dog that barks for hours on end. The dog(s) is frequently left out in the freezing cold, in extreme heat and humidity, and during thunderstorms, intensifying the poor creature’s anguish and barking. Most nights, the dog barks for hours, and on June 15, the dog barked throughout the day, then constantly from 6 p.m. until well beyond 2 a.m., making it impossible to sleep. Please investigate this unfortunate situation. We are at our wit’s end with the continual barking and are extremely concerned about the dog’s well-being, as it is clearly in distress.

I’m not sure on the status of the owner - I’ve lived here since January 2026 & never seen anybody in or out of this house but this yard is causing major mosquitos & mice to populate the area & in our yard

I have been hiking the South Shore Trail at Griffy lately and I have become lost more than once. I appreciate the maps on posts, but they are missing a crucial element: a red dot showing where on the map one is. Signs pointing to certain trails would also be helpful. The most confusing place is where the Meadow Wood trails and Griffy loop trail is.

Not sure which category this belongs under. Lots of gravel at the intersection of Grant and 11th Streets. Makes it difficult for bicycles to navigate across. Likely washed down 11th from the messy demolition site to the west.

I liked the idea of Bloomington sponsoring a Godzilla festival last year, and enjoyed the one movie I went to, which was so bad it was campy. This afternoon, my plans for the day fell through so I thought I would catch the 2:15 Mothra show. I was disappointed to learn that Buskirk was not selling individual movie tickets but only festival tickets for $32. I can’t imagine many people want to see enough movies in two days to make that affordable. Maybe I’m wrong. I hope you publish your profits and ticket sales. I know I did not pay anything like that amount to see one movie last year. Please reconsider your pricing scheme so you can appeal to other than die-hard fans. Thanks.

Water always standing when it rains. City has placed road barrier, seriously eroding the yard beyond the curb.

A family pet, basset hound, was left outside today with no water nor shade and she is now passed away at the end of her chain with a towel placed over her. This has happened several times in the past with the animal left outside, no shade, no water in heat waves and i have had to put water out for the dog. This time unfortunately it turned out absolutely heart breaking. I did not know of the situation until after the baby was already deceased.

Drivers who turn from Walnut up East Hillside and speeding is a problem. Hillside is a hill, and many drivers think this is a speedway. I am requesting a stoplight, yield sign, or better yet, a series of speed bumps, much like were installed on Washington Street. Pickup trucks seems to be the main issue, though muscle cars like to think of this as their raceway. The sidewalk is already directly next to the street, and we have to deal with large trucks withing 12-15 inches of our walking path. This can't be avoided. Speeding can be negated some. Thank you for you attention to this issue
