I was towed out of my IU dorm (I have a parking permit, I was simply outside the allowed hours to park in that specific spot) and I’m not exactly contesting the tow, which was non-consensual by the way, but the fact that I am being charged well over $200 for fees for the tow them housing the car for mere hours. I read the city law and it says something along the lines of I shouldn’t be charged greater than $135 for a tow, so im a bit confused here where the extra hundred dollars or so is coming from. I also spoke with some city of Bloomington parking officials and the company that towed me, Wray automotive, doesn’t have a license apparently, so I’m not sure what’s up with that. She told me to file this u report. Please get back to me when you can, thank you!

To the east of Somersbe, people are camping in an area owned by the railroad, city, & county so nobody is taking responsibility. Trash (see pic), car has been removed, trash remains, human waste, dog waste, unleashed dogs, & fires. March 6, 2024, I was chased on the trail by an unstable person from the camping area, screaming “I’m going to get you.” I had to RUN & hide at a residence/business and they helped me. I now carry pepper spray. Who do we appeal to for help? This is an unsafe situation for the people camping as well as the neighbors, and toxic to our environment. Thank you

It is almost 10pm on Monday, April 15, and there is a dog barking nonstop back in the woods it sounds like by the Rail Trail. 20+ minutes of barking easily tonight alone. It is dark and I am not going to find out where it is exactly. This dog barks quite a bit at nights and believe it is coming from the homeless camps back there east of the Rail Trail. I have seen dogs back there in the daylight. Is there anyway to get this looked into so that there are not dogs in the woods at these illegal camps barking at night? There are noise ordinances, and ordinances against camping on City property, and these camps are a nuisance. Get them removed.

A large homeless camp has been made in the past 24 hours. There are at least 10 people and a large dog. They also have been having fires. The area is at the end of Pinewood Drive on the opposite side of Clear Creek. This is a parkland where volunteers are currently working on the removal of trash and invasive plant species.

3 issues 1. Drainage at 820 w rosewood gets clogged constantly. 6 neighbors assist in removing debris Was informed the city “should “ take care of this. It isn’t. 2 when fiber came in and ATT no longer need the piller type boxes in yards. They are sitting abandoned in yards can the city require them to be removed? They should be since no longer needed. 3. I had spent about 50$ for grass seed and topsoil when I removed shrubs. With the laying of fiber this was dug up and this area is a mess.

I am the property manager with tenants located at 111 E. 6th St. Since August 2023, I have received complaints from tenants regarding floodlights that never turn off and are located on the back side of the Tempo (formerly Village Pub) building. The floodlights are unbearably bright and are left on 24/7. The floodlights emit bright and obnoxious light into at least four of the units that I manage, as all four units have patio doors that are right across from the stained glass panel that the floodlights surround. The light from the floodlights enters all four apartments significantly, and is particularly an issue in the nighttime where the light is exceedingly intrusive. This appears to be a clear violation of Bloomington Ordinance, 20.04.090 - Outdoor lighting, which states that "Floodlights and spotlights shall be fully shielded so that the light element is not visible to an observer on any property either zoned or used for residential purposes..." I would like to request that the floodlights adhere to the ordinance and that they turn off in the evening to avoid polluting light into the units I manage.

There is a homeless person sleeping in the bridge/walkway from the 4th Street parking garage. They are wearing charcoal colored jeans, appear to have a white undershirt and a black one over it. He had his head covered with a black zip-up hoodie, so I couldn't see his face.
