Bloomington RDC backs 714 South Rogers for police HQ, eyes up to $30M in financing

By Dave Askins

Bloomington’s redevelopment commission has formally backed the reuse of the former Bloomington Convalescent Center at 714 S. Rogers St. as the city’s next police headquarters. The plan would renovate the existing building and add newly constructed space for other public safety functions.

At its Monday meeting, the RDC voted unanimously to approve a resolution that declares support for renovating and expanding the building for the Bloomington police department, central dispatch and potentially other uses.

The resolution also puts the commission on record as willing to investigate issuing bonds backed by tax increment financing revenues, for up to $30 million. But the resolution does not itself authorize a bond issuance. City controller Geoff McKim stressed that distinction before Monday’s vote.

If the RDC decides to issue bonds, McKim said, a separate resolution would formally start that process and would then go to the Bloomington city council for approval. McKim told commissioners the $30-million figure was one the city believes could both accomplish the project and fit within the RDC’s potential bonding capacity. The $30-million figure would still leave room for other possible RDC commitments involving projects like the Hopewell neighborhood, McKim said.

Hopewell is the neighborhood that is being redevelopment by the RDC at and around the site of the former IU Health hospital at 2nd and Rogers streets.

The working concept is adaptive reuse rather than demolition and replacement. The existing 56,000-square-foot building would be renovated for police operations. But an addition is envisioned for central dispatch, an emergency operations center, and a sally port, along with parking and other site improvements.

Dispatch could be co-located at the site, but police chief Mike Diekhoff told the RDC in a memo that doing so would require further coordination with Monroe County. A final design and construction budget have not yet been established.

Bloomington mayor Kerry Thomson attended Monday’s meeting in person. Thomson said the Rogers Street site has two clear advantages. One is that the existing building appears reusable. Second, it sits within about a block of an area police had previously identified as their preferred location for a new headquarters. Tearing down the large concrete building would be a detriment from a climate standpoint and “frankly wasteful,” Thomson said. She called the proposed reuse a win and recommended approval.

Here’s what Diekhoff said: “So this is a great opportunity for us to move out of a building that has basically outlived its life. It leaks. We are making offices out of storage units. We just don’t have any room for growth in the current facility? So this building offers space that we think will serve our needs for up to 50 years. It’s a great location. It’s on major roadways, so it gives us access to get around the city pretty easily. The union is in support of it. Everybody’s pretty excited about the potentials.”

Car catches fire on city’s north side this morning

According to reporting by Bloomingtonian, a car caught fire in a parking lot near Indiana University’s Memorial Stadium this morning.

The Bloomington Fire Department and local law enforcement responded to the fire, which was reported at about 7:23 a.m.

The fire department says the vehicle was fully engulfed in flames when first responders arrived. No injuries have been reported. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

IU scores near bottom of national freedom of speech rankings

Indiana University ranks near the bottom of the nation’s worst universities for free speech, according to a new report from the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, or FIRE.

IU ranks 256th out of 261 schools in FIRE’s latest College Free Speech Rankings. Fire gave IU an “F” rating for its free speech climate.

The organization says students report concerns about expressing controversial opinions and a lack of confidence that university administrators will protect free speech.

Dominic Coletti, student press program officer for FIRE, spoke with WFHB – outlining what he sees as freedom of speech violations by the university.

“They’ve censored speech from the left and from the right … with a complete disregard for the obligations the First Amendment places on IU as a public university,” said Coletti.

Among six main free speech controversies, FIRE also mentioned the university’s handling of the Indiana Daily Student last fall.

IU fired its director of student media after he refused a request to remove news coverage from a planned Homecoming print edition. Hours later, IU announced it would end the newspaper’s print edition entirely.

While the university reinstated the newspaper shortly after, FIRE says the incident was part of what contributed to IU’s poor free-speech ranking. WFHB News interviewed co-editor of the IDS at the time, Mia Hilkowitz.

“We are in the perfect position to hold the university to account. We are embedded in the community here, and we see firsthand the impacts of the decisions they make,” said Hilkowitz.

IU’s ranking has improved slightly from last year when it was ranked third-worst nationally.

Meanwhile, IU maintains it’s dedicated to fostering an environment that values open dialogue and free expression on all campuses.

The university also adopted the Chicago Principles in February 2026, which affirm broad protections for free expression.

City of Bloomington to offer workshops for artists

The City of Bloomington will offer a series of workshops for local artists and arts administrators this fall.

The three workshops will focus on community collaboration, conflict resolution and burnout in creative work, according to a city press release.

The first session titled “Starts With You” will happen October 19th and will focus on building stronger collaborative relationships among artists in the community.

A second workshop takes place November 2nd, addressing conflict and accountability in the arts.

The final workshop, November 16th, will tackle burnout, self-compassion and finding balance in creative work.

All three workshops will be held at the John Waldron Arts Center on South Walnut Street.

According to the city, each workshop is limited to 25 participants. Registration will remain open until capacity is reached.

A waitlist will be available for workshops that reach capacity. More information here.

Inmate Transfer Plan Left Out of Sheriff’s 2027 Budget

The Monroe County Council met for a budget hearing on September 9th.

A multi-million dollar plan to move dozens of inmates at the county jail to other counties isn’t included in the sheriff’s proposed 2027 budget.

However, when Sheriff Ruben Marte presented next year’s jail budget, he said there was only one increase being requested.

“There really is no increase in the lines for us, except for the medical line,” said Marte.

Jail Commander Kyle Gibbons told councilors that the jail and sheriff’s office continue to share responsibility for court-ordered transportation.

“We both share that burden with the sheriff’s office as an agent on the court, and when we are court ordered transport, we provide that transport,” said Gibbons.

Councilor David Henry says he wants to see transportation data because he suspects the time spent moving people around could amount to the equivalent of another employee.

“I have a hunch that it’s adding up to a human,” said Henry.

Chief Deputy Phil Parker told councilors that the department has studied the issue and found the demand for transportation has increased in recent years.

“We did a pretty in-depth data study on that within the last year to show the increased burden that has brought to the merit side,” said Parker.

Meanwhile, Marte says while transportation demands increase, the sheriff’s office has fewer deputies available to handle them.

“The transportation has increased for us, whereas our numbers on the deputy side has reduced,” said Marte.

For now, the inmate transfer operation is off the table for the 2027 budget. The county met for another budget session on Thursday. .

Bloomington City Council Delays Decision on Historic Preservation Commissioner’s Removal

By Claire Zeyen

The Bloomington City Council will consider whether to remove Historic Preservation Commissioner Reynard Cross. At its regular September 2nd meeting, the council heard an explanation from Council Attorney Larry Allen about the allegations against Cross and the process for removing a member.

“Significant amount of time was being taken to delay the action of the commission, and also of staff’s time over the course of that period, and that was inhibiting potentially the business of the commission,” said Allen.

The council ultimately postponed a decision on Cross’ removal until its next meeting on September 16th.

The discussion followed a contentious meeting of the Common Council Committee on Council Processes just days earlier, where members examined procedural problems within the Historic Preservation Commission, including the events that led to questions about Cross’ conduct and possible removal.

Here’s what happened at that meeting.

The Common Council Committee on Council Processes met August 31st and addressed serious procedural issues at the Historic Preservation Commission, or HPC, which were brought to light in a detailed briefing by advisory member, Reynard Cross. The committee focused on how misapplication of Robert’s Rules and a lack of training led to confusion over delay motions, debate limits, and the chair’s authority.

Committee Chair Isabel Piedmont-Smith specified what went wrong during the commission’s June meeting.

“The chair limited a commissioner’s speaking time without a motion or a vote by the commission, which actually is required per Robert’s Rules,” said Piedmont-Smith.

The meeting moved on to public comment which reflected deep frustration over these procedural errors and a rumored proposal to remove Reynard Cross from the HPC. However, the committee clarified that the removal of a commissioner falls outside their current purview and will only be presented to them if City Council so decides.

HPC member Dr. John Butler publicly apologized for his own procedural confusion and urged city leaders to provide better educational resources.

“I apologize for messing the whole thing up, but I feel like we really could have and should have handled it better,” said Butler.

In response, committee members discussed implementing mandatory training on Robert’s Rules and rules of conduct for all commissioners, while working with the Clerk’s Office to make simplified rule summaries and meeting scripts readily available.

The committee’s next meeting is scheduled for September 28th at 5:30 p.m.

Monroe County Commissioners approve $20K PR contract, Justice Building door repairs 

On September 3rd, the Monroe County Commissioners met to discuss a series of funding approvals including better spam and phishing email detectors and fixing the air conditioning in the Monroe County Courthouse.

The commissioners voted 2-0 to set aside $7,840.00 to replace emergency exit doors in the Justice building. A representative from Indiana Door and Hardware Specialties Inc. walked through the contract.

“Two exit devices failed at the Justice Building, and due to the secure nature, Commissioner Thomas went ahead and signed the agreement so we could get that going,” said the representative.

Next the commissioners voted to appropriate $20,000 for public relations consulting company Hallowell Consulting. Commissioner’s Administrator Angie Purdie explained the spending.

“They’ll provide professional communications for the Board of Commissioners, including media relations, public relations and engagement,” said Purdie.

Bloomington resident Jaimmie Ford, who is also a volunteer at WFHB, disagreed with the decision.

“If y’all didn’t repeatedly say one thing and then contradict yourselves by saying and doing the complete opposite, you wouldn’t need to spend $20,000 for a PR consultant firm,” said Ford.

The commissioners unanimously agreed to pass the contract with Hallowell Consulting. The next Monroe County Commissioners meeting will be held September 10th.

Monroe County Council raises Local Income Tax to fund juvenile services

The Monroe County Council voted unanimously last night to raise the county’s local income tax rate to generate more money for juvenile services.

This means the county-wide local income tax rate will rise from 2.14 to 2.205 percent starting January 1st of next year.

According to reporting by Dave Askins of the B Square Bulletin, the tax increase works out to about $32.50  more per year for someone with a $50,000 taxable income.

County attorney Molly Turner-King read the ordinance and explained the need for more funding for juvenile services.

“The current special tax rate will not provide adequate and sufficient funding for juvenile services in Monroe County,” said Turner-King.

Indiana University has been ranked the sixth worst college in the country for free speech, according to a new report from the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, or FIRE. FIRE has been critical of IU’s handling of free speech issues for years. Earlier this year, the organization launched a billboard campaign in Bloomington. At the corner of Kinser Pike and the State Road 45/46 bypass, one billboard read, “Indiana University Covered Up the Truth: What Are They Hiding?” FIRE has become one of the country’s leading free speech advocacy groups since its founding more than two decades ago. In today’s feature report, we’re looking back to an archived interview with Dominic Coletti, student press program officer with FIRE. Coletti spoke with WFHB News about the billboard campaign and what FIRE says are ongoing concerns about free speech at Indiana University. We turn to Correspondent Zoe Moczek for that archived report.

Also at Indiana University, the football team defeated North Texas in its season opener 52-14.

Shooting on Kirkwood Avenue over the weekend

A 19-year old man was wounded in a shooting in downtown Bloomington on Sunday.

According to a press release, police have yet to determine what led to the shooting and few details are available about the circumstances surrounding the incident.

At 1 a.m., Monroe County Emergency Dispatch received 911 calls reporting gunshots on Kirkwood Avenue. After arriving to the scene, officers noticed blood and personal belongings on the street but did not find a victim.

Shortly after, a 19-year-old man showed up to IU Health Bloomington Hospital with a gunshot wound to his neck and shoulder. Bloomington Police Department says investigators tried to interview him but the man did not provide additional information about the shooting.

Witnesses told officers that a disturbance between two men at Kirkwood Avenue and Lincoln Street escalated when one man pointed a handgun at the other, fired a single shot and then fled the scene in a nearby vehicle.

The investigation into the shooting remains active. Anyone with video or information about the shooting is encouraged to contact detective Chris Scott at 812-339-4477 or [email protected].

ICE activity in Bloomington last week

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity increased across Indiana last week, including at least three people detained in Bloomington.

Last week, WFHB News spoke with immigration attorney Christie Popp, who said ICE targeted specific locations around town where they believed immigrants might congregate.

“I’ve heard multiple reports of ICE spending at least a couple of days here in Bloomington. I know of around three people who’ve been detained, though there could have been more,” she said.

Popp walked through what people should know about their constitutional rights when encountering ICE agents.

“People have the right to remain silent. They do not have to talk to an immigration officer. They have the right to ask for a lawyer… If ICE approaches somebody in a private place, such as a home, they have the right not to open the door or to talk to the ICE officials unless the official shows up with a warrant signed by a judge,” she said.

Two people were detained outside Walmart on the city’s west-side, Manuel Alejandro Nadal-Ortiz and César Cepeda Gomez.

Local resident Lyndsi Thompson organized a fundraiser for Gomez to help pay for his legal fees.

“We all deserve to live without fear. We all deserve to have our community show up for us when an injustice has been done,” said Thompson.

IU football dismantles North Texas in season opener

The Indiana Hoosiers kicked off the football season with a 52-to-16 win over North Texas Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

The sixth-ranked Hoosiers scored in all four quarters and extended their winning streak to 17 games, dating back to last season’s undefeated national championship run.

Despite the decisive victory, head coach Curt Cignetti said there’s still room for improvement.

“I didn’t think we played real well on defense,” said Cignetti. “We had poor tackling out on the perimeter.”

WFHB Sports Correspondents Aidan Verde and Nate Rushemeza spoke with fans at Saturday’s tailgate about a new policy limiting IU students to five football home-game tickets per season.

“For seniors, we should be able to go to each and every game,” said one student.

Stay tuned for more from IU fans on the student ticket change later this week on the WFHB Local News.

Bloomington City Council questions $95,000 city branding project

By Elena Bai

The Bloomington City Council met on September 2nd to hear reports from a number of departments and consider new and old legislation. Amongst these, a representative of CivicBrand discussed the Bloomington City and Place Branding Report.

“If the city of Bloomington actually did spend $95,000 for a logo, I would be right there with you and say that’s insane,” said the representative. “It’s not about selling Bloomington to an outsider. It’s about creating a shared vision.”

Council members named a number of concerns with the project. Specifically, council member Sydney Zulich brought up questions about the contracting process for the city’s branding efforts, questioning why local firms were not considered for the $95,000 project.

In his final comments, city council member David Rollo questioned the value of the report in the context of the city’s budget constraints.

“People are scrutinizing discretionary funding or spending, and they wonder what they’re getting,” said Rollo.

Community member Rowan Morse expressed frustration with the lack of tangible suggestions presented to the public.

“The lack of effort, the lack of care… has shown that they don’t really care about us,” said Morse.

Community member Eric Oste also shared concerns about lack of transparency from the city.

“Given that this contract for $95,000 was an economic development initiative, it is worth asking whether hiring an outside marketing consultant addresses our community’s core needs in infrastructure, housing affordability, and basic city services,” said Oste. 

The council also heard updates regarding the removal of Reynard Cross from the Bloomington Historical Preservation Committee. Council Attorney Larry Allen explained the allegations against him.

“There’s a requirement to be able to do the business of the commission and to respect the time of the public and the commission. A significant amount of time was being taken to delay the action of the commission, and also of staff’s time over the course of that period,” said Allen.

The council voted to postpone the decision until their next meeting, which will take place on September 16th.
