Bloomington Board of Public Works

On June 4th, the Bloomington Board of Public Works heard a resolution for a property at 105 East Driscoll Street. Neighborhood Compliance Officer for the City’s HAND Department Mike Arnold walked through the contract to uphold an order to seal.

Board Secretary James Roach asked Arnold why the property owner wouldn’t do the sealing themselves. Arnold responded.

The board approved the resolution by a unanimous vote. Then, the board heard an encroachment agreement for the Posh Hotel at 200 East Kirkwood Avenue. Public Improvements Manager for the City’s Engineering Department Maria McCormick introduced the resolution.

Vice President of the Board Elizabeth Karon asked about all the other approvals needed for the hotel. McCormick said they have been approved by the planning department.

The board approved the encroachment agreement by a 3-0 vote. The next Bloomington Board of Public Works meeting will happen on June 18th.
