I live near this residence and it is becoming a major problem with yard waste trash.
IT IS LITERALLY THE MOST TRASH-RIDDEN PROPERTY IN BLOOMINGTON. This is by far, the worst propert in Bloomington. I've asked multiple times for the city to help, and nobody has done anything.
The front and back yards are littered with trash, and junk that he keeps piling up on the property, never attempting to clean up, or remove anything but continuously accumulating more trash.
The appliances and items scattered all over the property are filling with water and becoming a breeding ground for mosquitos which when mowing my yard, I'm attacked by swarms of them. This property is becoming a major eye-sore and pain for us on this street.
I have asked this person nicely multiple times if they could get this stuff under control, but they refuse.
Someone please help us. He seems to believe he lives "In the County" and not the "city" allowing him to live like this. This trash is affected all other residents around him.

Our neighborhood has reported this resident multiple times and the city has done absolutely nothing to correct the issues on this property.
This property is a literal junk yard, and when I say literal, I mean this without any exaggeration. It is littered with trash, abandoned vehicles, broken appliances scattering the entire yard.
My kids go outside to play and are bombarded with mosquitoes that live in the water-logged abandoned junk all over the property.
Can someone from the city please address this since the other departments are not addressing it?

We hired Arnolds Asphalt to put a driveway in and in the process of preparation, they found standing water where the meter is. Before we proceed with the driveway, I believe we need to have someone from the Bloomington city utilities department to inspect this to make sure there are no issues before new blacktop goes over it with a protective sleeve. We were notified after a fire about 2 or 3 years ago that there was a leak and there was standing water in this at the time perhaps do to the big fire trucks rolling over it while putting out the fire. Could someone please come inspect this to make sure there are no issues prior to blacktop?

Water Utility Billing Problems

I am writing to bring your attention to an urgent matter regarding an unusually high water bill that I have received. My name is Kumar Vinayak, and I am a resident in the Bloomington area. I hope that you can assist me in resolving this issue promptly.
Upon reviewing my recent bills, I have noticed a significant discrepancy in the water consumption. In the month of April, the recorded consumption was approximately 30 gallons, while in May, it unexpectedly increased to 35 gallons. These figures are undoubtedly incorrect, as such a volume of water cannot be reasonably consumed by a single individual.
To address this concern, we immediately contacted our leasing office, as we suspected a possible emergency situation or water leakage within our house. They promptly responded by inspecting the property thoroughly but found no signs of any leaks or abnormal water usage. This observation leads us to believe that the issue may lie with the meter or its readings, as it seems to be continuously running even when the house is unoccupied.
Given our status as students, it is financially burdensome for us to pay the exorbitant amount of approximately $1000 for water alone. This kind of billing discrepancy is highly abnormal, as it greatly surpasses our electricity bill, which amounts to approximately $100 per month.
I kindly request your immediate attention to this matter and urge you to investigate the issue thoroughly. I have attached a copy of the bill for your reference. I believe it is essential to rectify this situation as soon as possible to avoid any further financial strain on our part.
I appreciate your understanding and assistance in resolving this matter swiftly. Please keep me informed of any progress made in investigating and rectifying the issue. I can be reached at the email address provided in this communication or my flatmate's contact number, +1 (812) 360-0848 (as I am outside Bloomington).
