Parks RequestApriLighthouse Point Park - East Shore
I just returned from a morning visit to Lighthouse Park. While the common terns and osprey were beautiful, a few other things were not:
1. Speeding cars -- people fly down the driveway in the park. Perhaps install some speed bumps and more signage about the speed limits in the park?
2. The bathroom situation is confusing, and there is no open snack bar!
3. There was litter everywhere, likely leftover from the weekend. I realize that the parks department is low on staff, and no one should be littering to begin with, but why wasn't it cleaned up? It makes for a really unpleasant visit to the beach. What's more, the park's summer camp kids play in that area -- and it's filthy. If all else fails, give the kids some plastic gloves and some trash bags, and ask them to clean up the sand. Maybe that will inspire a new generation to think twice about littering.Please put more money into our parks department. It's ridiculous that we have a mayor who says he's pro-environment when he allows our parks to fall into disrepair (and, worse, promotes the expansion of the airport in a migration corridor!).

Sidewalks and Curb damageRiconosciuto747 Quinnipiac Ave New Haven, Connecticut, 06513 - Fair Haven HeightsI have reported this numerous times. My sidewalk was damaged by city construction. This happened approximately 4 years ago, when the city was replacing sidewalks on Quinnipiac Ave to Clifton St. Further damage happened when sewer lines were worked on twice in a 2 year period. Construction vehicles parked on my sidewalk, causing damage to both the sidewalk and my retaining blocks.

Not sure if this has caused structural damage to the houses. When speed is a factor and big trucks it the man holes and the area where the cracks are the house shake so bad you think the house is going to collapse.

Sidewalks and Curb damageRiconosciuto60 Ogden St New Haven, Connecticut, 06511 - Prospect Hill
Phil Langdon asks me to post this issue for him: “For as long as I’ve lived in the neighborhood (39 years), there’s been an approximately 10-foot-long section of Ogden Street that’s missing a sidewalk. For a long time, the missing sidewalk was not a big problem. But in recent years, as roots have protruded above ground, that stretch of missing sidewalk has become a hazard for pedestrians. In the winter, that sidewalk is not shoveled, which adds to the danger for people walking on Ogden Street.
Could you ask the City to install a sidewalk on that short stretch of Ogden St?”
