Blocked Sidewalk

Case Date:
3/18/2021

Sidewalk on south side of 17th st, across from 924 w 17th. Mud has again accumulated from the runoff at the tri north construction site. When it's raining, the whole hillside now drains onto the sidewalk, from the tri north driveway west to the western property line. This sidewalk gets the direct runoff of a whole acre now. The sidewalk is now a culvert for the hillside. Nothing serves as a culvert for the sidewalk. A river flows through the sidewalk. This isn't going to go away when the grass grows back. It will be a complicated and expensive problem to solve. Please make addressing this drainage problem a condition of signing off on their work and getting their ROW escrow back, or this sedimentation will continue indefinitely. Thanks!

Blocked Sidewalk

Case Date:

Sidewalk on south side of W 17th just east of tri north construction entrance covered with mud again. I can't overemphasize that the sidewalk itself is serving as a culvert to drain several acres and this problem will not go away on its own when the construction crews leave. I'll try to remember to come out here with a ruler when it rains next week to record the depth of the creek. Kids will be using this sidewalk to walk to school even on rainy days and their shoes should not be completely submerged!! We are going to look into this today (5/17). We believe that a soil stockpile and a storm drain with inlet protection is not allowing water to flow into the storm drain. We are going to investigate again and see if we can identify the exact issue.

Blocked Street

2923 S Rogers ST

Case Date:
11/29/2022

I forgot to report this at 10pm last night when I observed it. I have not gone by this morning to see if it is still an issue. But, as of yesterday, S. Rogers Street was a mess from the construction site. It was covered in gravel and mud. It was very dangerous in a car and would likely cause bicycle and motorcycle accidents. They apparently do not have a tire washout station setup because they dragged the mess into the road and made it everyone else's problem.

You’ve done nothing over past several years to address culvert issues at 2001 east hillside. You weakened soil by doing nothing and now there’s a very big tree about to fall across high st. Enjoy!

927 S College Mall Rd, Bloomington, Indiana, 47401

Case Date:
9/7/2019

The Nail Studio on the East side was dumping their cleaning solution into the parking lot. Eventually, this detergent will wash into our waterways. Our MS4 investigated this illegal dumping. At the time we did not see any liquid on the pavement or see evidence it was entering our drain system. We conducted education to the Nail Studio and informed them that dumping any industrial/commercial waste on the ground was prohibited by municipal code.

City Construction Projects

E 19th St, Bloomington, IN, USA

Case Date:
12/12/2022

The apartment construction by Varsity properties on East 19th Street has caused an excessive level of dust on the road. Whenever a vehicle drives by, the dust becomes airborne. In addition, the dust also falls on to nearby vehicles, causing a significant amount of scratches and inconvenience. No effort has been made to clean up the street. It is especially disgusting to walk on when it rains.

City Performance

3230 S Walnut St, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
6/1/2021

On Saturday, May 29, 2021, this City-owned site was producing a lot of loud construction noises after 10:30pm. The noises included audible beeping from trucks or equipment backing up and loud banging noises, possibly the sound of either dump truck tailgates slamming on the bed of the trucks or some sort of excavator hitting the ground repeatedly. City ordinances only allow construction noises up to 10pm. Can the City be a better neighbor and not produce these loud, annoying noises at such late hours of the day?

Debris Removal

Case Date:
7/10/2023

I am one of the Utility Dept. volunteers checking and clearing storm drains in Sycamore Knolls. I and my fellow volunteers having been clearing storm drains at the intersection of Queensway and Montclair, Queensway from High to Montclair, and Sussex Dr from Queensway to Montclair. We have been making piles of plant and street debris near some of the drains. They are now getting large and because of their mix of plant and asphalt debris cannot put them in the weekly waste pickups. Would it be possible for a city street crew to remove these piles near the following locations? North sides of the Montclair and Queensway, Southside of the Chelsey and Queensway, and Sussex Dr. near 1912-1919 and 2216 -2219 Thank you
