On Sundays and some week days cars attending events at Olcott Park are parking on the Stands Rd making visibility and issue at the corner of Canada Drive. Often both sides of the street have parked cars and it would make it difficult for first responders to access the field. There is ample parking available at Jackson Creek Middle School still giving access to the park. Signage may help this issue. |

There are two utility box covers that have improper covers on them near the athletic fields. The lids are rotten and soft and will not support a person's weight. They also flip open when stepped on. This is a serious safety issue that needs to be addressed as soon as possible. |

I live in Evansville IN. I came to Bloomington to a local venue, parked and took photo of QR CODE.
Nothing appeared on email or Venmo.
I went into the Venue and came out 2 hrs later to a $30.00 ticket.
Please know I tried to do as asked when parking.
I am requesting my parking citation be waived.
Respectfully,
Amy M TenBarge |

Trash |
open |
I don’t think Duke needs that many trash canon their area to be responsible for the mess. This has been an ongoing issue where the apartments across the street place them there. According to city ordnance are they not supposed to be in a covered area and not felt on the street all the time. Owners have built some fenced areas but are not using them. Please treat all the residents the same. |

**To: Bloomington City Government and City Council**
**Subject: Concern Regarding Predatory Parking Ticket Practices**
Dear Mayor, City Council Members, and City Officials,
I am writing to express my serious concern regarding what I believe are increasingly predatory practices surrounding parking enforcement in Bloomington, Indiana\.
Parking regulations serve an important purpose\. They help maintain traffic flow, ensure turnover of limited parking spaces, and provide fair access to public parking\. However, enforcement should be designed primarily to encourage compliance, not to create an environment where residents and visitors feel that the city is intentionally using parking citations as a revenue\-generating mechanism\.
I am particularly concerned about situations in which parking violations result in disproportionately high fines, aggressive enforcement, confusing or inadequate signage, short payment deadlines, or circumstances where a reasonable person could easily misunderstand the applicable parking restrictions\. When enforcement becomes excessively punitive or difficult to navigate, it undermines public trust in local government\.
I respectfully ask the City of Bloomington to review its parking enforcement policies and practices, including:
1. **The amount of parking fines and associated fees** and whether they are proportionate to the underlying violation\.
2. **The clarity and visibility of parking signs**, particularly in areas where restrictions change by time, day, or location\.
3. **The use of warnings**, especially for first\-time or minor violations\.
4. **The appeals process**, including whether citizens have a meaningful opportunity to contest citations\.
5. **The financial incentives surrounding parking enforcement**, including how much revenue the city receives from parking citations and how that revenue is used\.
6. **Enforcement practices**, including whether citations are being issued primarily to improve compliance or whether enforcement activity is effectively being driven by revenue considerations\.
7. **Transparency**, including publicly available data showing the number of citations issued, the revenue generated, and the costs associated with parking enforcement\.
A municipal government should not give residents the impression that parking enforcement is a financial trap\. People should be able to park in Bloomington without feeling that a minor mistake, an unclear sign, or an honest misunderstanding could result in an excessive financial penalty\.
I am not advocating for the elimination of reasonable parking enforcement\. I am asking for **fairness, transparency, proportionality, and accountability**\.
I respectfully request that the City Council and appropriate city departments review these practices and consider reforms that prioritize voluntary compliance and public trust over punitive enforcement and revenue generation\.
I would also appreciate a response explaining what percentage of the city’s parking citation revenue is generated annually, where that revenue goes, and whether the city has evaluated whether its current enforcement practices are appropriate and equitable\.
Thank you for taking this concern seriously\. I hope the City of Bloomington will work toward a parking enforcement system that residents and visitors view as fair and reasonable rather than predatory\.
Sincerely,
Concerned Citizen |

Lots of uneven surface and potholes in crosswalk and brick embellishment at the B-Line Trail crossing W 2nd St. What is the timeline for how long the construction project will affect this pedestrian crossing? Cars are not yielding now to the same extent as they were before all the construction. Hard for wheelchair pedestrian to see past the cones to the West to check if cars are coming before crossing. Missing crosswalk stripes painted on the road. Crosswalk across the Wendy's/Kroger parking lot entrance is not wheelchair accessible. I'll attach a pic of that in a different ticket. |

Emailed Bloomingfoods in April 2026 requesting repair to the bricks under the gazebo so wheelchair can use it as part of accessible entrance instead of going through the parking lot and navigating around pulling in and out of parking spots. Have not received a response from them, and no repair has happened. |
