  • PHNA Summer Picnic!
  • Mark your calendars!  Our PHNA summer picnic will be held on Sunday, June 3 from 4-7 pm at the large shelter in Building & Trades Park at Fairview and Howe Streets.  Meats and meat substitutes will be provided and expertly grilled by one of our grilling masters.  Bring a favorite dish to share, utensils, a beverage, and maybe a chair.  We look forward to seeing old friends, new neighbors, and to sharing good food and conversation.

  • IU Health Bloomington Hospital Site Reutilization Update
  • In January 2018, the City of Bloomington agreed to purchase the  current IU Health Bloomington Hospital site for $6.5 million.  IU Health will pay for demolition costs for the site.  A formal agreement is in the works.  The city expects to take ownership after the hospital moves in 2020-2021 to the new IU Health Regional Academic Health Center at the S.R. 45/46 bypass (near 10th Street).

    The city has engaged the Urban Land Institute (ULI) to develop recommendations for the site.  ULI visited Bloomington and held interviews with 100 community representatives (including Prospect Hill) in April 2018.  ULI's preliminary findings were announced on April 13; a full report will be issued in June 2018. 

    We encourage our neighbors to follow information and updates available at www.bloomington.in.gov, in the local media, and at our monthly neighborhood association meetings  We will provide more information here as it becomes available.
     
  • City of Bloomington UDO Assessment Process
  •  The City is making a detailed assessment of the current UDO (Unified Development Ordinance).  The City is working with consultants Clarion Associates and McBride Dale Clarion to identify recommended development regulations that need to be added, deleted, or revised to better align the UDO with the Comprehensive Plan objectives.  Public reviews for this phase of the process were held in early May, when representatives from Prospect Hill, CONA, City Council, and city staff met with the consultants.  Following are links to materials used in those sessions:
  • link to the City’s web page on the UDO process;
  • the notice of public meetings to show scope of the current steps;
  • the handout provided at Monday’s (April 30) meeting;
  • the presentation made onscreen (and discussed) at the meeting.
