But one point is clear: More than a month after the June 25-26 extreme weather events, nearly all of the more than 500 Bloomington residents who experienced and reported losses have yet to be compensated for them.

What’s more, after five separate public discussions over the scope of the damage and paths for future infrastructure repairs, city leadership has yet to codify a plan for financial assistance for victims of the storms.
