Inaccessible Parking

Subject: Request for Residential On-Street ADA Parking Spaces due to Student Housing Overcrowding I am a 9-year resident of Maple Heights neighborhood in Bloomington requesting the designation of on-street ADA accessible parking spaces directly adjacent to my home. My husband is disabled and myself have upcoming spine surgery and possesses a valid state-issued ADA placard.A recent multi-building student development directly across the street has overwhelmed our public street parking. The high volume of student vehicles completely fills the street, creating a severe barrier for my husband and myself, who cannot walk long distances. This has created a safety hazard, as we are trapped in our home and unable to leave for medical needs out of fear that accessible parking will be completely cut off by student overflow. Because we operate two essential vehicles—including one required for my husband's medical transit—we are formally requesting that the Traffic Commission evaluate our property for a designated ADA space allotment to restore safe, accessible entry to our home. Thank you for your urgent assistance with this safety matter.
