Can you all have your IT folks add a covid-19 option? I'm guessing lots of people are asking about it. Anyways, I was going to suggest some businesses aren't really essential, like ice cream shops (I'm not a fun hater), but everyone hanging out in an ice cream shop parking lot is not exactly health goals for a pandemic. Also, I noticed police officers walking around without masks. Now that that is recommended by CDC are officers and other city staff being provided with such masks and told to wear them?

City government needs to help advocate against Duke for more reliable power infrastructure. Multiple times a year, not a one off, we not only lose neighborhood power but do so for hours and hours and hours. We lose hundreds of dollars in groceries each year. Many of our area homes flood as our sumps even with battery backups aren't designed to pump for hours on end on battery. And now, we are losing our salaries and important work as are supposed to be working remotely and can't. Don't simply say it's not a city problem. Help us. Duke refuses to bury lines or take care of dead trees in northeastern part of the city and I'm sure other places. Please use your lobbyist or whoever else to make Bloomington a place where power can be expected, not where privileged neighborhoods get it reliably and the rest of us live in the Middle Ages several days a year. Duke needs to do better for Bloomington.

Please please please start requiring employees to wear masks. I'm tired of being around coworkers, including my supervisor, not wearing a mask. I shouldn't have to be at work if my supervisor doesn't wear a mask and gets within a foot or two of me. It's not a power equality where I can tell him to put on a mask! Someone is going to get sick. Even more than already. If this is how we are with each other, how are we with the public?

You just don't get it. It's not about having a "better" police nationally credentialed by a profession steeped in oppression. You don't get praise for being the top 5 percent of oppressive militarized domestic forces. Are functions of an armed police force necessary unfortunately in present day United States, yes. But should they be LEADING public safety? Absolutely not. Change starts at the top and a public safety chief, perhaps of a law background or social work or public health, not police, needs to be in charge. Social workers and resource officers are seen as LESS THAN by police, as an ACCESSORY to a primary police force. That needs flipped. We need management, particularly a chief, as a social worker for instance. Social workers know when to call on police. Police can be an ACCESSORY to social work. That's the change that is needed. Policing must become the SECONDARY profession and presence when it comes to making sure we are a safe community. Social work and related can be 24 hours just the same as police; ask a foster care case manager. This is solvable! Change the system. The expertise in the community is there.

Hello, I am one of the owners of Scout’s Honor Pet Retreat located at 511 W 11th Street. Over the last few days we have noticed a growing camp of unhoused persons in the trees on the southwest corner of Rogers and 11th, right next to our facility. We have had employees approached being asked for rides and have noticed a lot of trash being left around. We are asking that this encampment be looked into for the safety of our customers and employees, the health of our business, and the cleanliness of the area.
